[SKATTA]

This shyt started out as a pandemic,its pretty much a case demic now.
that all ppl seem to be doing is counting casess since this seasonal virus has already spread throughout the community.
where most of the ppl have some immunity.

many countries dont have a mandatory mask rule and have way less cases/deaths have plummeted.

I enjoy it. I get to walk around like a ninja and not get looked at funny now. Also... I've been buying masks like sunglasses to accessorize and shit now. Got a Venetian mask looking thing on the way.

This is how it was when they said “wear gloves”, any parking lot you’d go to you would see them laying on the ground and flying through the air. When people left the stores and got to their cars they would just throw the gloves on the ground..smh

yeah people are having fun with them and you know black people gotta go the designer route. I guess Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Coach and Fendi have started making masks too

no way this is comfortable but I’ve seen people wearing mask made of this leather material

I'm high risk, so I take no chances. I'm a cigarette smoker and while in Gowardesh, Afghanistan, we caught some respiratory ailment up in the mountains that seemed to cut my lung capacity in half. I was an avid runner, and once back down to sea level, I couldn't run the distances that I was accustomed to running for shit.

I don't know if it was Elevation Sickness, caused by burn latrines, or by the burn pits, but I never recovered and couldn't call cadences again since then.

Look at the NBA bubble to the MLB if anyone questions the masks effectiveness.

This wss told to me by a nurse yesterday that worked in a covid unit in Rockaway hospital.

you have to a N95 mask, or have the gear that you have to wear with a tank attached. Those common paper masks don't work. It can still get through.

Also she said to be wary of the infrared temperature scanner that they point at your head. It can affect your brain stem. She said to take the temperature on your arm where you bend your elbow. Its safe and more accurate

I'd never suffered from pollen allergies in my life until after then either, but some states that I travel to have me fucked up and reaching for allergy meds.

I've worked in a hospital setting and we had to be fitted for N95 masks and all of that so I don't consider it a hassle to wear one, especially knowing that my respiratory health is already compromised. It may not be 100% but it's better than not taking any precautions at all.

The hospital also treats Tuberculosis patients with the same measures as they are doing with COVID 19...gowns, N95 mask, eyewear or face shield, gloves, and foot coverings. I don't know of anyone else who worked around old folks who had TB to also catch TB.

Yep, happened to me too in several deployed locations in the Gulf. I don’t smoke but all the shit that happened during service is real. The fucking migraines man. My kidneys were shutting down for a period of time and I was like wtf is this? They put me on a water and cracker diet for a week to flush my kidneys and told me to try not to do anything physical at all for that week. I had to give my entire family history about kidney issues. Felt like I was a dead man walking on the green mile. Fuckers didn’t even send me to Germany like they said either. Kept my ass downrange.
