>boomer boss and a few other coworkers tells me that the n95 masks like the one I was wearing (had a one way air valve) was only good for people who already had the virus
>Boomer boss tells me it isn't airborne and I can only catch it if I touch my face after touching a contaminated surface.
The people I work with have science degrees. THIS IS WHY THE VIRUS IS SPREADING SO FAST IN AMERICA.
Idiots at work unironically think it's the loominati
Jack Barnes
everyone at my office is super complacent. I'm literally the only one wearing an n95 mask out of hundreds of people. I think others might be doing the same after today though after one of coworkers is coughing out her lung.
Nathan Bennett
The Foreman keeps saying it's nothing and has been for weeks. When I explain the math he just says the same thing again.
Zachary Garcia
I feel like everyone is either crazy, stupid or just in denial.
People aren't going to open their eyes until their friends and family start dropping dead.
Brandon Carter
It is nothing you retards. Very few will get it, and even fewer will die from it. Unless you're over 60 and suffer from specific conditions, you have little to fear.
Carter Kelly
I had a guy say “i am going to catch it on purpose” his reasoning was “there is no way it is worse than what i had last week, i felt like i got hit by a truck for 7 full days. The sinus pressure was unbearable.” I told him if he coughs anywhere near me i am literally going to mace him with a can of lysol.

The media has been spreading misinformation about normal cold/flu for years - ignoring the fact that the primary method of transmission is aerosol. Now they are doubling down and it's going to be disastrous.
My roommate just told me she'd prefer to get it now and ride it out and get immune to it
Leo Gray
Wouldn't it make sense to want to get it now before the hospitals are bogged down?
Jaxson Cruz
Do you have on goggles too?
Brandon Russell
I watch too many pandemic movies to be the first guy out.
Isaac Walker
yes go lick your local mosque
Asher Sanders
Woke up this morning with no obligations, and decided to play a little golf for some fresh air and an escape from the news. Got paired up with “it’s just the flu” boomers. Ignored them, because I was hitting my drives a solid 70 yards past them. *crack* *sip* Yeah, 30 is looking good for me boys.
Adam Martinez
>all have degrees
The kind you find in a cereal box, or the real kind?
John Nguyen
A mask doesn’t protect your eyes, dummy.
Christopher Stewart
In all fields.
David Peterson
>engineer boomer kind.
Austin Bennett
I know, it protects your lungs.
Chase Cruz
your eyes don't cycle 6 liters of air per minute, but yes eye protection certainly helps.
Matthew Foster
You don’t get infected through your lungs, dummy. You get infected through mucus membranes in your nose and eyes.
Mask doesn’t do shit unless you’re wearing some goggles as well. But a mask does stop an infected person from sneezing into everyone’s face.
James Jackson
Checked and keked
Daniel Murphy
Illuminatus here. It really is us this time, but our motives aren't what you think.
Asher Howard
Do you make it a habit to huff other people’s breaths?
Christopher Johnson
my facebook feed is still littered with retards saying the flu is worse despite so much evidence to the contrary. God help us.
Adrian Williams
Funny, mines full of people stocking up on toilet paper.
Camden Cox
>science degrees "american education" was a real meme afterall
My parents live in a retirement community, so I’m a member of their Facebook group because I co own the house. So many of them making jokes “hurrr durrr corona doesn’t make you shit to death.” These retards can’t understand that under quarantine, your gonna need the teepee. And if you don’t, who cares? You’re gonna use it eventually. It doesn’t expire.
Brandon Phillips
>goggles The only thing that actually matters unless you're licking elevator buttons.

Research says primary method of contraction is direct contact with eyes and nose. I’m just pointing out that a mask is actually useless if your eyes are still exposed. Almost all diseases like these infect through the tear ducts.
But keep wearing mask everywhere. I love it when you guys self identify.
You’re stupid. People are only buying toilet paper because China was doing it first. Classic monkey see monkey do behavior in a fear induced situation.
Also quarantines do jack shit. NYC is the latest example of that.
Matthew Reyes
>COVID This is some stupid shit. It's called the Chinese Coronavirus
William Parker
call it chink disease, it's just semantics user.
Anthony Jones
The CDC. Where’s your evidence that says mask actually do anything?
You are like those chinks that wear face mask because of pollution, yet still eat the food from the city masked in pollution. Incapable of critical thinking.
James Taylor
The same CDC that is telling healthcare professionals that is just a flu bro so you really dont need the n95+ ?
Jaxson Collins
I know user, I have a full face respirator. But, during the time I only had a n95 mask on hand. Why are you preaching the choir? I'm just saying wearing a mask is better than nothing, which inhalation is the most commons source of transmission.
So please don't get offended when I say, go fuck yourself.
Jack Ward
No doubt it’s based on group mentality, and I’m not saying anyone should fill their garage with it. It’s worth having a little extra if you have to keep yourself in.
Brody Taylor
I really want you to try and think about this for a minute. Just stop and think: >wear a mask to prevent spit, mucus, and other fluids from making contact with your nose and mouth when others cough and sneeze >not doing anything to protect your eyes, which are inches away from your nose and face, and will come into contact with the coughing and sneezing fluids along with the nose and the mouth What good does it do to lock your front door but leave the garage wide open?
Mason Gutierrez
I talked to a local convenience store manager/franchisee. Not sure which, but she's the boss over everyone there. I had a brief chat about coronavirus, explaining the potential to infect over 40% of the American population. She scoffed and asked where I got that news from. I said almost every outlet is confirming it now.
She laughed and went on a spiel about how it's not a problem. It's no worse than the flu or "the cold" and would only hurt old people, fat people etc. I interjected and told her to imagine the spead of a virus worse than the flu, where people are puking and coughing their guts out on a scale far worse than flu season.
She laughed it off, before I could explain why it's more virulent and told me to just drink some beer and bread and don't worry about it. Foot trafic was lower than usual and I can only expect that arrogant bitch was looking after her bottom line. She was old as fuck herself. One of the employees didn't look too happy about her response.
Because Yas Forums is such a better source, right? I’m trying to explain to you that it is literally the exact same as nothing. Wearing a mask makes you look like a fucking fool.
Brandon Turner
It is worse though, it's already killed more people in 2020 than this "deadly" virus.
It isn't just for global depopulation to reduce resource usage?
Carter Ramirez
You can’t gain an immunity to a coronavirus.
Dylan Stewart
ok. I look like a tool because I didn't have googles on hand in the workplace. thanks.
Angel Parker
This.
Luke James
>Science degree in Goblinland Which is like an art degree in a first world country
Christian Taylor
i'm seriously thinking this. It's sad.
Levi Thomas
>>Boomer boss tells me it isn't airborne and I can only catch it if I touch my face after touching a contaminated surface.
This is half-true. It's spread by droppets, so if someone sneezes/coughs directly on you or if you touch a contaminated surface, you're at risk. It does not stay in the air for long, nor does it travel far distances via the air. N95 masks do help, though, idk what idiot told them otherwise.
Nolan Sanders
No you look like a tool because you fell for the hysterics like a woman.
Chase Perry
we saw this happening coming 2 months ago user. These normies are only seeing it now. They're still in denial. Give them a few days
ok i look like a woman because i wore a n95 mask. thanks.
I should've worn nothing. Thank you sir.
Ryan Robinson
i've asked several people at my work whether they would say anything and the answer was a clear no, since they don't want our work place getting shut down.
no sick leave or pay
Logan Hughes
If you really think that you need to go outside, buddy. Man a science degree from Italy must be like toilet paper, then.
Carson Diaz
>"Guys its going to die out soon just like the flu, its getting hotter" This was said by a literal jew bitch in my class today. A couple of us pointed out that China and Australia have already had warm climates and corona seemed to still spread.
Jayden Torres
Pretty much, yeah. Now every single man at your work place knows you are a little bitch that falls into mass hysteria like a woman.
Climate in affected areas of China and Australia are cooler than the average climate in Texas. Even Iran is cooler than Texas and like half of the US.
Just for reference.
Nicholas Morris
Quite frankly, I assumed similarly--that it would be no worse than the flu and would only hurt the more vunerable parts of the population, but then I started to read about how virulent it could be and leave large swaths of the population self quarantined. I also read about the dangers of pneumonia if the virus migrates to the lungs. Coronavirus likes moisture and I fear it will disproportionately affect the youth who vape, because the vapor provides a vector for it to go deep down into the lungs...not to mention the illness will be prolonged by families passing the virus to each other in their households and hospitals being too overun to service severe cases...
That picture is bullshit though, here's why: the breath you see when you breath in cold air is water vapor condensing into liquid water droplets. Water vapor is individual molecules and cannot carry virii with it.
Nolan Hill
Yes, it’s a pandemic. So as a man, you should be aware of the probability of a mass hysteria and critique information appropriately.
How many journalist and news reporters are women? How many female opinions have you read that are ‘informing’ you about the virus? Do you even know?
Men are suppose to be calm and reasonable during the most stressful times. A man who panics and wears a mask, leaving their eyes completely exposed, is just showing that they believe in the hysteria.
If you were actually trying to protect yourself, you would know that the eyes are the most important thing to protect. But all you had was information told to you by women.
Noah Thomas
kys simp. I'm going to put my welfare above any thot or fag as yourself because of fashion.
If my company doesn't let us work from home from Monday and I sense the littlest of symptoms I'm going around shaking the hands of every manager I see in the corridors. Fucking shits, I have to travel every day in the crowded metro and work in the shit open space and they're coming with their cars and staying their offices. I'll be waiting for them in the parking lot. Fuck them.
Alexander Robinson
I have to remember this. Normal people are built a certain way. They get defensive when things change.
Caleb Rogers
Many people are not taking the virus seriously in my country. They are pointing out that so many people recovered from the virus and there has been no death in our country.”It is just a regular flu.”
Austin Peterson
>hysterical beta calling someone a simp Thanks for the laugh. Now I know how your coworkers felt when you showed up in a mask.
Bentley Ross
>nCov is going to potentially create a power vacuum / create massive social unrest in many nations.
>We should have maps prepared that indicate where all the sodomites, antifa, and others that need to be coofed on can be found. This way raider anons and infected anons can pay them a visit.
>This house for example in my area (pic from google maps) has an antifa flag in its window right now. I've been sick for awhile and I've coofed all over their door handle.
We need to coof on our local antifa.
Camden Bennett
Watching boomers over the age of 60 who are obese with preexisting conditions saying "it'll only kill old people, nothing to worry about" has been a sobering reminder that baby boomers are literally retarded.
God everyone on here is pathetic. People want an apocalyptic pandemic because it's exciting and gives meaning to your pitiful, worthless lives. It's the same as a giant storm or a tsunami, or even a train wreck. Why do rekt threads exist, as well? People don't want bad things to happen technically, but everyone wants that visceral excitement of life and death. The issue with a pandemic is if everyone freaks you fuck over things worse than the virus ever would. Actual experts — not business insider, or cnn, or some PR wanker from the WHO but the actual scientists — say it's dangerous enough to pay attention and warn people, and put in some effort, but it's just a gnarlier flu. Deaths from the flu are from 0.1 to 0.3 percent. Corona is 0.6, with the data problem of not having enough data from the mild cases so the data is skewed to be worse. A few healthy people are hospitalized with corona; guess what? That happens with the flu sometimes too. We have flu shots, we have flu season, and we try to pay attention. We should do that with corona as well. But acting like this is world war z is fucking laughable. Just wash your hands and try your best, goddamn
I wear blue surgeon mask or my P100 Half-mask with black shades over eyes and rubber gloves or my Russian gas mask.
