Is it really any better in England?
Daily new cases are higher than when lockdown started and Boris has said pubs can open.
Fucking disgraceful.

Opinions?
You can type yours, but...
Keep all Politics Out of it or I will Lock this thread and the other similar thread as Soon as I read it.

Me on this topic...Not new news, I want to live and I want my family and friends living too.
I'm wearing a mask and Nitrile Gloves while running about for food, gas, etc.
Got a haircut today, 1st one in 3 months. Wore it all. Everyone in the shop wore them. The boss controls how many folks are allowed in the shop at one time - and it's minimal.

I'm 100% against the folks in the videos. I have naughty words in mind.

I'm passing the baton now....
(be good)

Prior to the "virus" often wore my full face helmet in stores, and still do. Have never been questioned or denied service.
Have asked several Police if there is any directive in that regard...........none that they knew of, but they thought it was
acceptable. Prior to the virus. shield up. [Composite helmet]

Both my wife and myself wear a mask when we go out to a store. It's common sense to wear one. If I am riding I put a mask in the glove box so all our vehicles have a mask for both of us. The masks are washed weekly also. Overkill, I don't know but I would rather error on the side of caution than not.

Couldn't agree more! :roll:

Can't blame it on lead drinking cups either as was in Rome.

Correction:

The Romans used lead pipes in their public water systems.

I cannot understand the stupidity of some people - whatever country they are from - this pandemic is killing people and unless it affects them or their family they give the impression they are invincible or there is a conspiracy against them - mad

Keep love in your heart and use your Common Sense

From the very beginning I told my family, loved ones and friends to find, purchase and wear masks.
I was fortunate to have a few from the nursing home while visiting my Mom (rip), but had nowhere near what I would be needing going forward. Time to shop....

I began my search online @ Amazon, Ebay, and all the big box stores. Then called and visited nearby stores. First wanting the N95 - I found a few but prices were jacked up everywhere (so disgusting) and
the basic paper corded type were Sold out - already. Daily I kept at it and finally found a vender on Amazon. I immediately ordered 100 - coming from God knows where! It was risky. I had no choice.
The vender ran late in delivering but kept me aware of delays throughout the process, that was nice. I received my order as advertised and with no damage to packaging in 3 weeks. Perfect timing. This pandemic just got it's name.

Next...
I bought nitrile exam gloves (latex and powder free) from Costco (in store) - 200 multipurpose gloves (100 pair per box) - Kirkland brand.
After 1 use, I dispose of them. While they're still on, I pull off one and place it inside the other "as I peel them off" (I'm never touching them barehanded). I dispose of them at home. They are Not left in a shopping cart, or tossed on the ground, or left on a shelf!

When I see someone drop their gloves, or their mask I call them out on it right away. Most get embarrassed and pick them up, others tell me to mind my own business or give me a dagger look.
When folks stand to close to me or walk up in my face, I tell them to back-off/back- up! They look surprised but they do it.
When folks walk into a store I'm in without a mask on, I ask them "where is your mask?" Again I get "that look." Then they dig it out of their pocket OR Raise it Off their Neck onto their Face. Really?

Friends have told me I may get punched one day, but I'll be damned if s(he)'s coming in hot with me and others standing by. Geez, Have love for mankind. Let's get rid/be rid of this f'ing pandemic all together!
