wxeyeNH Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 NH Governor to have a news conference at 3pm. Perhaps we will finally have a state wide mask mandate. Good thing is that I am seeing near 100% compliance now. It was only around 75% in my area around Labor Day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthCoastMA Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Ditch the surgical masks and go with some KN95's on ebay (I like the Powecom ones). Can get them for abou $1.50 or $2.00 a pop at most...and you can re-use. Surgical or cloth masks might work somewhat on droplets, but near useless for airbone covid. I've always thought this though, and not just saying it because of the Danish study. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even my local Staples was selling them. Didn't like the white one's so just ordered black on Amazon. Got to man up in NNE 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are useful if most people wear them (as they will limit the horizontal projection of virus when someone breaths out or coughs)....but if there's someone near you not wearing a mask, then the cloth ones won't help much.

I see more wearing them incorrectly which you might as well not wear them at all, They cover there mouth but not there nose, Or walk around with them under there chin.

The Danish study has a lot of issues...it didn't address the main driver that masks protect others from you...only the other way around. While it wasn't scientifically significant there was a 23 percent reduction in infections in the mask group. You might just say its underpowered. The lab type fluid dynamic studies do support the basic premise that masks are efficacious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrisrotary12 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 For people who want to open everything up. IF the scenario was: "Open everything. But masks and social distancing are mandatory" would that be ok? I've come around on this. I think I'm now team open everything with mandatory mask and social distancing requirements. At least until the vaccine is widely available to >80% of population or something. Note: I said available, not 80% stuck with the needle. I'll gladly wait on the vaccine. I'm perfectly happy wearing my mask and social distancing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxeyeNH Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Governor of NH is on TV. NH is finally issuing a state wide mask mandate. Long overdue. Biggest new case numbers today since spring. Positivity rate is jumping. Up to 4.5% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
