Amusing, but,,,, if it makes you feel protected;

It could be possible that they wear a mask cause they is just real ugly

[RoginaJack]

Yeah Flutch but have you got wine or just in pill form still hanging on the vine and rum? So there!

I have a new theory.

They wet the toilet paper softly and wrap it around their faces and use as p3 masks

Good point really - Why aren’t ppl using bandannas or similar where they can damp down and improve filtration quality? I have to fly my family from Hobart to Brisbane soon and kids are freaking out - I was thinking I’d get them masks if nothing more than for the psychology....but Damo bandanna over the nose and mouth might be the ticket, I can sell it to them in a fun way.

On yet another tangent. As a motorcycle rider, it’s demanded of me to remove my lid when Getting petrol, going into shop, etc - wonder if the ppl wearing masks at petrol stations will be subjected to the nsnny tanties that many have when you don’t show mouth, nose....

[Sergeant Hartman]

No cuz everyone know motorcycle riders are bad.... bikie gangs

It's not very well understood by the general population but somebody wearing a mask is doing you a favour.
They are protecting you from the droplets they may otherwise be emitting into the air around them.
The mask provides little or no protection to the wearer due to becoming saturated with the wearers emissions after as little as 15 minutes and thus becoming a fertile environment for nasties that may be drawn into the mask.

Yeh,went to Aldi yesterday. A lot of empty shelves.

I start digging my new bomb shelter in the back yard today.

Yes, but one might also assume that they are also creating a saturated focal point for the disease - that is, they touch the mask they are wearing and then touch a counter, a biro or similar and....and transfer is possible. Without a saturated focal point, that might not occur...- ps I’m not a quack, I’m just thinking out allowed.

Whatever you do - DON'T tell people masks are useless. Let them wear them - because they're doing society a favour by not spreading their own germs and viruses around. Sadly the only reason many wear masks is for their OWN protection - so just keep encouraging them to do so.

I'm betting we're in for the lowest cold and flu season this year we've ever seen.
