Which is why I stopped watching this 45 seconds in: https://www.democraticunderground.com/10181421997

The unmasked man was alone with no one else nearby, until confronted by the masked man. People need to have a much clearer understanding of the actual means by which the virus is transmitted. Which means obsessive sanitizing of spaces is totally stupid, irrational, and ineffective. I have zero idea where the video then went, but I had to stop when it reached unreality.

Wear a fucking mask when you are out in public with other people. No, you do not need to wear it when putting garbage out in the middle of the night, or when in your car by yourself. Yes, you need to wear it inside of any kind of store. And yes, wear it in a restaurant until seated. If you get up from your seat for any reason whatsoever, put the mask back on. Don't go anywhere frivolously.

That last is a bit of a hardship for me, as since I like to cook, I often need to make a quick run to the grocery store for a forgotten ingredient. Sigh. I always mask. I live in Northern New Mexico and people here are very good about wearing masks.

I suggest you kick it again later on for the morning crowd, should it fall to the second page.

The graphics were really well done.
