| Masked Man's PERSONAL NOTE: I assume when they tell you a | |
| vaccine is going to be less effective they should | |
| proportionately tell you to wear a mask more.. they seem to be | |
| talking slightly more about masks in the aforementioned | |
| articles..Now that they know the shot won't protect them as well | |
| hopefully they won't be as lazy and more people are advised to | |
| mask more... right? | |
| The 2nd. article aforementioned above seems to believe that | |
| nursing mothers should wear masks only at home when | |
| breastfeeding... | |
| I guess the logic is that the mother does'nt have to wear a mask | |
| in public but only around her baby when she breast feeds?..yeah | |
| of course we should mask around babies if we think we are sick | |
| but let's mask to protect ourselves before we get sick! This is | |
| ludicrous to not wear a mask in public and expose oneself to the | |
| super flu if you have a baby or any loved one for that matter | |
| ...this is an airborne illness and viruses linger in the air for | |
| hours... | |
| Wear a Mask in public as well so ya don't get the Super Flu so | |
| you don't get sick and so you are strong and healthy enough to | |
| take care of your baby at home.. also the article doesn't make | |
| any sense ..Who was taking care of the baby? Were those taking | |
| care of the baby wearing a mask? So wear a mask around your baby | |
| too incase baby has the super flu esspecially if you left your | |
| baby around others to care for it while the Super Flu is going | |
| around! | |
| I guess I post these articles for the other information the | |
| articles contain... | |
| Again why not recommend people wear masks to prevent the illness | |
| rather than recommending people to only mask after they get | |
| sick!? Its important to mask if you are sick and have symptoms | |
| but its also important to mask in order to prevent getting sick. | |
| Keep in mind it's a lot easier wearing a mask if you aren't | |
| throwing up or sick. I guess these articles fail to recommend | |
| masking to prevent the infection to begin with. | |
| Why on earth would anybody fail to reccomend masking as a | |
| legitmate way to help prevent airborne illness and airborne | |
| diseases when something as dangerous as the super flu is going | |
| around? | |
| Here's the deal the doctor says: | |
| �You might still get the flu if you�ve gotten the flu vaccine | |
| but you�re less likely to have a severe illness and you�re less | |
| likely to die or be hospitalized,� Dr. O�Dea said. | |
| ...The Masked Man says fair enough that might be true and so is | |
| the following: �You might not get the flu at all if you wear an | |
| N95 mask and if you mask you�re less likely to die or be | |
| hospitalized because you had your mask on and never got | |
| infected,� The Masked man says publicly. I challenge doctors to | |
| go on major network and say otherwise and correct me The Masked | |
| Man if I am wrong about N95 masks because I'm not! I don't | |
| understand why doctors aren't sharing with the public the life | |
| saving virus preventing feature of the N95 Mask! | |
| I'm not a doctor but I'm willing to share what helps prevent | |
| airborne illness: | |
| Masking helps prevent the flu by acting as a physical barrier to | |
| respiratory droplets that carry the virus, | |
| The Masked Man | |
| P.S. | |
| Why don't more doctor's recommend the N95 mask..They took a | |
| Hippocratic oath to prevent airborne illnesses whenever possible | |
| didn't they!? What's their problem with N95 Masks!? | |
| Does the medical association not recognize the N95 Mask or the | |
| scientific findings associated with N95 Mask usage as helpful in | |
| preventing airborne illness and airborne disease amongst the | |
| public? | |
| What's the problem many doctor's have with the wearing N95 Masks | |
| to prevent airborne illness and airborne diseases!? Why don't I | |
| see more doctors recommending N95 Masks publicly? I don't get | |
| it. Seems dishonest to omit the N95 in these reports because it | |
| is one thing tha has been scientifically proven to help prevent | |
| the infection itself of the illness we are wanting to prevent. | |
| Masked Man doesn't understand and will never understand doctor's | |
| omission of the wonders of using an N95 Mask to help protect | |
| patients against airborne illness and airborne diseases. What's | |
| the doctor's excuse for not recommending N95 Masks? | |
| Here's the dose of reality the press and doctors are | |
| publicising: Why sugar coat it after they have already stated an | |
| emergency? They call it super flu..Basically they are saying we | |
| are in a state of emergency and they are giving us all medical | |
| advice..are they not? We are talking about something they call | |
| a Super Flu! Let me put it to the know it alls straight, The | |
| press and doctors are terming it a 'Super Flu' and so that | |
| implies there is an outbreak and so I interpret the as a time to | |
| safeguard ourselves all the way with everything trick in the | |
| book and it sounds like a good thing to be scared enough to | |
| mask... | |
| ... If this is indeed a Super Flu and there are outbreaks we | |
| should behave as if its a big deal .. its really quite simple: | |
| If you wear a mask and I wear a mask we just might not catch | |
| this thing! We aren't out of the woods yet! The fact is this: | |
| The press and doctors are officially warning us! The press and | |
| the doctors are reporting to us publicly that we are having an | |
| outbreak which is an emergency at least they are heavily hinting | |
| at that..(By the way I'm not the one here reporting a state of | |
| emergency.. the press and the doctors are)..Its a super flu | |
| defined so by these experts who are coming forward to advise us | |
| medically.. That's a term meant to scare us so they got me.. I'm | |
| concerned. They have convinced me we might be in trouble So | |
| what's the plan? My plan is to protect one another! I wear my | |
| mask for the super flu. No problem. I'll do my part just incase | |
| we are really in trouble. According to the news and the doctors | |
| we are in trouble. So I say if its that bad then protect | |
| yourselves to the fullest. I doubt they are crying wolf.. I | |
| wouldn't downplay it with the preventative measures .. | |
| ...I do know this: it is crazy professionally to state to the | |
| people we are having a problem with flu outbreak and not also | |
| recommend masking amongst all the other medical advice given in | |
| the face of such immediate emergency. For one thing it is | |
| physically impossible for that many people to do all those | |
| things safely without a mask that they are suggesting and in the | |
| time frame they are seeking. And the second thing is the sheer | |
| numbers involved: It's inadequate and not enough to suggest that | |
| only those who feel sick need to mask. That is sheer lunacy in a | |
| real outbreak to think only the sick should mask.. in a real | |
| outbreak you want the healthy ones to mask so they don�t get | |
| sick while all this is going on ..and all I know is I personally | |
| consider real Super Flu outbreaks as maskworthy events . I | |
| believe in masking anyway. I can't believe masking isn't more | |
| heavily recommended in these aforementioned articles once people | |
| start crying outbreak or once they start crying at all. People | |
| better wise up and take it seriously enough to mask if you ask | |
| me. | |
