There you go, you get 5 cords for 10 bucks, that is 2 per cord. And no virus.

The main benefit is that it protects the wearer from infection through mouth and

Besides the virus being able to penetrate the mask and not covering eyes...

ORCoug

Apr 5, 11:45pm

Lol, uh, you're right, since it doesn't offer 100% protection it isn't worth

Right, why bother with distancing yourself from humanity for fear if man. Ironic

They have "admitted that" those who fail to social distance, practice

Cougarbib

What does that have to do with what I wrote?

It does not protect the person wearing the mask from airborne virus. It keeps an infected person from spreading

To keep you from spreading it to others - maybe.

Doubling every 5 days after stay at home orders seems high, but just guessing.

I remember thinking Breaking Bad was the pinnacle in tv series viewing. And then I watched Ozark season 3.
