The city of Columbia is giving away a free mask to anyone who can’t afford or doesn’t have one. Just come to several locations within the city of Columbia to get your free mask The city of Columbia has a mandatory mask ordinance. If you enter the city of Columbia you’re required to have a mask or be fined $150. So the people who don’t have a mask must be wearing a mask to get their free mask.

more and more stupid
 
Video footage at a select City of Columbia Country Club for a compliance check (ok, I'm an alliteration maniac)? Bueller? Bueller?

And to think I was just planning on loading my daughter up with guns, knives and flashlights when she goes back. Good to know she’ll get masks for free.
 
I went into Hardee's in Raleigh this evening vs. the drive through because I had to use the bathroom, and the lady asked me if I had a mask. I said it was in my truck, I just wanted a milkshake to go. She said she could not serve me without a mask. That's the first time I've been told that.

She was really sweet and kind of cute, so I obliged.

I love the signs that say they enforcing a ‘Local Government Ordinance’. I am dying to ask them to cite the actual law passed by legislation, but it isn’t worth my time. We are a nation of sheep and fools. Meanwhile the death rates, albeit artificially inflated, continue to drop.

Or more succinctly, it's a bloody scam. And now they're pushing the cashless agenda hard, since we're all falling into line like good little sheep.
 
We are told we don't need masks N95, save them for the medical community, now we need masks aka face coverings. What good is a non N95 or NIOSH mask if it will not fit properly and not block the virus, same for the masks with exhaust ports that do not filter.

Meh, you're not wearing the mask for you, it's for the safety of others...
 
Whatever the mask thinking is, S.C. is testing positive at near 19% last few days. That's over twice the N.C. average and many other states.

The tests may be really unreliable, but the outcome is employers end shutting down and sending people home (per my son who lives in N.C.) And not good for the workers who don't do stupid. I've always thought there would be a struggle for folks who did not stay fit and healthy. Then there are people who overdo their meds and ruin the immune system. Sorry for the rant.

The gov told people if they don't get smart, there won't be football. I live in S.C. When you say football, folks listen up. ;)

I'm not sure I understand the false positive thing. If they were doing random tests of the general population, then it might help us measure the spread. But if you are targeting a group of people that have symptoms, a rise in positives could just mean you're getting better at recognizing the symptoms and only testing those more likely to have it. Or am I missing something?

@Lil D and I went to academy in Burlington on Sunday. They have a troll at the door saying masks are required to enter and he’s handing them out. I took one as I walked by, shoved it in my pocket and kept going. Over half of the employees I saw weren’t wearing one either. Who TF are you to tell me I have to have one on when your employees won’t wear them.
 
They are just doing something, anything to keep the Karen's off the corporate complaint line.

King Cooper pooper would require personal bubbles if it polled well
 
And about the numbers, someone I know well and is very honest, his wife is a nurse. Two of her girlfriends, also nurses at a local hospital, tasked with doing covid testing, became suspicious when all results were coming back positive. Sent off 2 samples that were untested, came back positive. Then, using themselves, they had just been tested negative, made up 10 samples with fake names. All came back positive. They were asking my friend's wife what to do with information, as they didn't want to lose their jobs. Don't know what happened after that. I'm calling BS on the numbers if this has any basis in fact.
 
The medical community says that wearing masks helps slow the spread of this thing.
They say that N95 masks would be best if available and properly fitted amd worn, but that’s not an option so any covering is better than none.
Options are plentiful and can be as simple as a folded bandana worn like a stage coach robber in an old western.
They say that slowing this bug is important.

On the other side, the virus simply isn’t as deadly as predicted.
It may be spreading faster, or maybe we’re just testing more people.
We’re getting crap data on hospitalizations and deaths, probably because both seem to be falling while infections are rising. Is this because the bug isn’t as bad as expected in the general population, or because there is a lag due to the long incubation, we don’t know.
Anicdotal info from Houston is that the hospitals are about full as of the end of last week, is this true, is it not being reported to avoid panic, is it widespread?

So, given what little info we have I can’t really evaluate the risk associated with not wearing a mask. I see no benefit to the government for suggesting, or requiring, that I wear one, and it doesn’t cost me anything, so I will generally wear one when I’m with people or not eating.

I get that some of you just don’t ever want to do what the government wants, but is there more to the argument than that you just don’t wanna wear one?
 
I may now be a racist! A friend of mine in Greenville SC says the numbers are skewed there because the large numbers of illegals in Greenville now positive. That city had the state's highest positives a couple weeks ago.

Nurse Erin Marie Olszewski
speaks to this in the Bitchute video link below. (This video has also been on youtube and keeps being removed)
She says the hospital she was at gets a Base pay of 29K per Covid-19 patient.

Erin Marie Olszewski is a Nurse-turned-investigative journalist, who has spent the last few months on the frontlines of the coronavirus pandemic, on the inside in two radically different settings. Two hospitals. One private, the other public. One in Florida, the other in New York. And not just any New York public hospital, but the "epicenter of the epicenter" itself, the infamous Elmhurst in Donald Trump's Queens.

She wrote a book as well.

Looks like the UT video is back up


 
Yes.

The issue of Individual Liberty.

You choose to wear a mask, ok! I must wear one? Not ok.
But that’s my question, why do you choose not to wear one? Not some hypothetical crap about how lower O2 levels might affect blah blah blah or similar, but for you specifically, why do you not choose to wear a mask when there seems to be no significant cost and some potential benefit?

I agree but the virus will not be blocked by this type of mask, dust and pollen yes, CV no. The other fancy face coverings and masks with exhaust port(s) that are unfiltered that are not N95 rated can't block it.

Why all the hysteria about 'positive test results'? It seems obvious all these new "positives" aren't being rushed into ICU.

Isn't the important data covid related hospitalizations trends and deaths? Why is that data so hard to find?
 
I think the complaints about wearing a mask are really people looking for something to argue about. Just where the damn thing. It's to protect people from YOU not them. Of course, I think people should be forced to bathe regularly or not go in close proximity to other people too but.... maybe i am a Fascist?. Also... Brush Yo Teeth! Some of you have breath that could melt plastic. Ain't nobody got time for that!

Simply because I have lived my entire life of 52 years knowing that just about anything can take me when ever its time or just bad luck. Calculated risks and all with most harmful everyday activities. This one particular thing doesnt call for a life changing events or actions that have not already been practiced.
