Wait. You’re one of those people?

The guy who hasn't made a post longer than 10 words since 2012 has had sufficient dialogue with me to assess my core beliefs!

presumably these "high risk" walking comorbidities are masked, vaxxed, and boosted, no?

and because we've all agreed that masks, vaccines, and boosters are safe and effective, how exactly is this person at risk?
The whole my mask protects you trope. It's amazingly effective at absolving these drones of all personal responsibility.
Makes sense to me.
Gonna ask my surgeon to not wear one cuz they don’t do anything anymore
If he suddenly vomits it will probably keep some chunks out of your open surgery.

Sorry that you don’t believe something supported by repeated numerous tests, but surgical masks are effective at preventing bacteria/viruses from passing from one person to another. I’m sorry that your confirmation bias against this makes you susceptible to believing that one study that says differently wipes out decades of supporting information.

Ridiculous bad faith argument. No reasonable person says they are 100% effective, but they do mitigate transmission, which has always been the point.

They didn’t mitigate shit, and I’m not the one arguing in bad faith.

Until they figured out through recreation of results that they did. Funny how changing views based on evidence in front of you works

Except when it comes to climate change. In that case the science is settled.

Until they arranged things in a way that would support their narrative (must have a room temperature IQ**)

Same thing with the garbage shots that basically failed immediately. Their rushed trials were meant to succeed. Everyone was rooting for them to, to be fair.
