Fox News reports on mask wearing...

Fox News reports: “ Wearing a mask cuts own risk of novel coronavirus by 65 percent, experts say”....
https://www.foxnews.com/health/wearing-mask-cuts-own-risk-novel-coronavirus-65-percent-experts-say

But wait, on the same homepage but much further up the page, they also have an article, “Alex Berenson claims there is 'very, very little evidence' that 'universal masking' slows coronavirus spread”
https://www.foxnews.com/media/alex-berenson-little-evidence-masking-slows-coronavirus

Why do they prioritize “opinions” of a random, “non-expert” and report it as news? No wonder the country is confused...

The internet has all kinds of articles on how to make a mask out of a bra. Ask your wife or GF to wear 1 of her old bras all day, espeically in this sticky weather. Then ask her to make 2 masks out of them & not wash it. then wear it when you need a mask. I don't know about your wife, but I'll smell my wie's sweaty tits all day.

If only there was an article on the internet on how to make a mask out of panties.

People don’t understand the term “evidence” relative to science. This is a scientific fact - there is absolutely zero “evidence” that jumping off my roof head-first three stories down onto pavement results in injury. No one has ever tired it and there are no testimonials or evidence that doing so from my roof will injure. But it shouldn’t take much intelligence for someone to realize they shouldn’t do it.

We must continue panic mode through the election to get rid of Orange Man Bad. Just say whatever. Make shit up. ANything to get him out. Look at the excitement in our ghettos as evidenced by thousands of nogs shooting each other every weekend all over the country. If this doesn't make you want to vote democrat, then you are racist.

While we're at it, can we force Jews to wear a yellow badge with the star of david? And let's arrest any who refuse to wear it as dictated!

Why does CNN seem to advocate for shut downs, social distancing and masks but then put out an article titled “BLM protests have not led to a spike in coronavirus cases”?

In CNN’s defense, they generally bury in paragraph 5 the disclosure that they are full of shit and pushing an agenda by misleading with their headline.

In this article they point out protestors could have spread the virus but was offset by masses who hid inside fearing the mostly peaceful protesters.

Why not the headline, “BLM burning and looting encourage more to hide at home than governors orders”

BTW, if BLM protests somehow didn’t spread the virus then this forced shut down was the biggest waste ever.

If you were at all a “Science Dude” you’d know that that’s also an opinion piece and won’t get published anywhere but in his own shitty blog”

Oh, I don't know? Because authoritative experts can never be wrong? Could that be why?

randomized trial of 1600 health-care workers showed those wearing masks were 6 times as likely to have flu-like illnesses

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4420971/

the ordinary surgical mask does little to prevent inhalation of small droplets bearing influenza virus. The pores in the mask become blocked by moisture from breathing, and the air stream simply diverts around the mask.

there is no strong evidence to support well people wearing surgical masks in public.

What the fuck is your agenda, man? Trying to spread misinformation? Your articles don’t price shit. Ones about cloth masks only and they’ll all out of date. None are about corona virus. Stop trying to steer people in the wrong direction. It’s why we are in this mess right now.

Anyway, Fox News is a joke. Right now there’s not a single article on their homepage about the surging cases in the US. But thankfully, there are articles about Jessica Simpson still fits in her jeans when she was 20, and a bear broke into someone’s home in Colorado.
