i’m referring to the citations i provided (you’ve yet to reciprocate); & no, no one can make decisions *for* others, you included, but if one’s health decisions impact others (ie: shared air), others get an opinion. anyone can take the info, judge how it fits with their values, & make their choices.

Right: I can't figure out which image you're referencing, so I don't know what that is in reference to or are trying to say.

I already very easily gave you the data you asked for, because it's very easily referenceable on the CDC website. It's tedious to screenshot such public data, though I can.

so incredible how you want me to spoon feed you but screenshots are too hard on your end. i’m done— bye!

Burden of proof is on you when you quote-dunk, I don't really care if you adequately explain yourself or not.

I'm pretty well satisfied that I made my point, though: in the absence of a pandemic of a virulent strain of a dangerous disease, overusing masks becomes the more pertinent danger.

I'm also not assuming anything about the numbers; those are easily referenceable on the CDC website. Note, though, that "unmitigated" spread today is lower than it was during the actual pandemic, which indicts the argument that mask mandates would be beneficial today.

itsbabs.bsky.social•14 days ago

it’s still a pandemic, and who’s talking about mandates? you’re the only one to use that word.

It really isn't, though. COVID-19 now is _endemic_, like influenza, so this is like saying that the Spanish Flu is still a pandemic because there are still outbreaks of H1N1.
