@kallemp@cr8r.gg @mcnado It's not messed up at all, because masks work even better as a way to prevent infected people from spreading diseases than they do at protecting healthy people from catching them. And when both infected and healthy people are masked, you square (not double) those protections.
I'm 100%* in favor of having deputy health officers with firearms enforcing a law that everyone has to mask in public spaces, especially indoors.
(*Edit: Okay not really 100% but Jesus Christ, thousands and thousands and thousands of people are still dying and becoming seriously disabled from COVID, and while I generally am not a fan of carceral punishment, I absolutely think there should have been some government muscle enforcing mask requirements, including things like shutting down businesses that don't enforce them themselves.)

Kierkegaanks regretfully
In response to this post@mcnado @msbellows We didn’t have mask mandates (except periodically when visting healthcare, and encouraged in public transport), and had overall better outcomes than both the US and UK. Albeit with a low ratio of dumb fascist antivaxxers. A ratio that probably grew lower with time because colloidal silver doesn’t work. Although. Armed enforcers of masks sounds like having a meltdown in a liberal democracy
@Kierkegaanks @mcnado Where's "we"?
