The Purell won’t do the trick after you’ve been hacked on, if you would just frickin’ READ the science behind this. You should have been wearing a mask, as we ALL know by now. Or someone responsible should have been assisting you with this. But if you choose to be in the company of infectious losers like Skunk Trump who doesn’t mind spreading virus among the ignorant, that’s how science works and Darwin sends his best. This is an irritating cartoon, I am sorry.
There have already been several research reports supporting the benefits of wearing masks in the healthcare setting and the community to reduce transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
But a question on everyone’s minds is: When can we stop wearing masks? Can we stop wearing them after vaccines are available?
People are sick of masks. I get it. I am an infectious disease and public health physician, and wearing a mask is even wearing on me. So, when can we stop wearing masks?
The short answer is: not any time soon. Wearing a mask continues to be important, especially as cases surge across many states in the U.S. and colder temperatures force us back indoors in closer proximity to others.
Although we look forward to having vaccines available in the near future, there are numerous reasons we still need to wear masks even after vaccines become available.
Reason 1: It may take months or longer to get vaccinated.
Reason 2: You won’t know who has or hasn’t been vaccinated.
Reason 3: We don’t know the vaccines’ effectiveness.
Reason 4: We don’t know the duration of vaccine protection.
Reason 5: People can be re-infected.
Taking your mask off too early is like playing Russian roulette, depending on who you are hanging out with and what activities you are doing.
These people need to get a real principle. Because refusing to wear medical protection during a pandemic isn’t one. Real principles aren’t based on pure selfishness.

That’s how I felt when I saw the Joe Hunter cartoon on Scott’s other site.

Trump claims his mind is the greatest in this century, but he cannot remember if he tested positive on the day of the first debate.
That he may have tried to deliberately infect his opponent is a totally unrelated coincidence.
.
Also, Mexico is going to pay for all seniors getting vaccinated. And The Wall.

A mask is truly a miraculous piece of fabric, in that it can further shrink a repug’s micro peen
