nobody wore masks and folks were fine.

You know top, seems to be more popular in blue areas, I live and work in primarily blue areas.

Yes, I agree. That's part of the point I was trying to make. My county and state are red.

Some studies showed that social anxiety was significantly positively correlated with avoidance, impression management, and intention to wear masks, and significantly negatively correlated with self-identity.

So basically.. it's like a binky for adults with low self-esteem

I also lost faith in "science" and medicine in general.

I never had faith in science and medicine. By its very definition science changes when something new is discovered. It's also run by humans and humans are fallible and mutable.

To be fair: the original concept was sound. There are plenty of diseases in which we 'mask up': TB, pox diseases, etc; it's always been recommended with flu.

The issue was when 'healthcare' doubled down on stupid when it could not be proven that masks (or fill-in-whatever-COVID-protection-here) worked.

Masking in certain parts of the hospital is fine. Demanding N95 masks for all, every where, is insanity. Are they going to stock all sizes and have someone do fittings at the front door?

The N95 for all is retarded, and I mean that in the nicest way. Utterly and ridiculously stupid; nonsensical in epic proportions .

That's the demand by the CSA up here. They have ZERO authority but they'll still demand it and some hospitals will enforce it. My family clinic just got rid of surgical masks for everyone .

The fucking insanity will never go away, as long as these Cunts walk free.

I feel for you because Canada really seems lost. Between that and news like this below, I'm not sure who's spiraling worse, Canada or the UK.
