And that's assuming that you're one of the 0.5% of people even using the fucking thing properly. I make it a game when I go out to see how many people I can spot wearing one properly, because spotting the ones who aren't wound up taking too damned long. Wearing down beneath their nose, over their chin, draped over their neck, plucking at the damn thing every two seconds with hands that doubtlessly were never sterilized, pulling it down to talk, I mean... The fucking list is a mile long.

Somewhere along the way, too, everyone seems to have forgotten that the goddamned thing can pass through the membrane of your eyeballs so the masks wouldn't do a whole fucking lot anyways. If this outbreak has done nothing else, it's thoroughly convinced me that the average person is too mind-numbingly fucking stupid to understand even the most basic concepts of PPE, and think that just slapping any random bullshit in the vicinity of their mouths grants them complete immunity.

To be fair PPE is not supposed to be used constantly like this anyway. The fact doctors come out and recommend this shit is horrifying
Edit: to remove unintended quotes

Yes, there’s a reason NIOSH puts these as voluntary wear. Because they don’t do shit. If it was a real one, you would need a different setup altogether.
 
Out of curiosity do we need to start a new thread for China spreading a Black/Bubonic Plague Pandemic to the World, or just append it to this one? Just trying to get ahead of the Pandemic's here.

Black Plague is arguably treatable as it's bacterial, unless it's some super antibiotic resistant plague.

Even in that case it's much harder to spread because of how it transmits, too.

if that happens this will likely become the "China Broke 2020 Megathread"

but if a bunch more stuff keeps coming out of China, they might need their own dedicated subforum.

an entire superpower-tier country as a flagship lolcow. just imagine it.

I see people fucking up with gloves all the time.

Hell at work people barely even remove PPE correctly and we've actually had training! I have no idea why mask orders are not combined with telling people how to actually use them without contaminating yourself with the big ol' fomite on your face.

It's not every day you get throngs of angry, gullible idiots selectively placing themselves on the biological chopping block for a moral crusade that has no endgame. The sad thing is, they're putting everyone they interact with on the same block. If I had any say in law enforcement matters I'd charge the lot with bioterrorism.

One thing this pandemic scenario has done is brought to my attention just how fucked up China is. They have an urbane population similar to western large cities, then they have the countryside where the people eat anything that walks, crawls, climbs, or flies. Holy shit, no wonder all these diseases come from there.

It appears that Congress has been officially notified that the United States has withdrew from the World Health Organization.

Good. The WHO compromised the entire world with how they catered to Chinese interests. They knew the severity of this disease and chose to praise their bullshit.

Blood is on their hands.

No, seriously, the police keep them safe from me.

I have scores I'd like to settle and the only thing that keeps me from doing so is the thought of a trained investigator asking questions.

They may feel the same way, which makes it more likely I would just move to end this if there's no cops. If the courts are suddenly dismantled, that's it for them.

Dude has some very serious anger issues. Have seen this before, from other people. Wrapped WAY too tightly around the axle. Reaction utterly disproportionate. Best of luck to him finding a job. He's going to need it.


Added: VERY good article from Victor Davis Hanson.
