Annoymouse Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Well the number of reported cases has dropped, lots of people don’t bother to report their positive results, a lot aren’t even testing. I had Covid in April but I’ll be concerned about possible reinfection in the colder winter months. The concern being I expect repeat infections will be more likely to cause long covid. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

code99 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 According to Jonathan Van-Tam "people must learn to manage Covid risks'', and he no longer wears a face mask as a matter of course...perhaps the following article will change his mind? https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/jul/01/herd-immunity-covid-virus-vaccine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit - only joking, I read the whole thing. I'm not sure why you think that article would encourage a change in the mind of JVT, especially around face masks. JVT doesn't wear one because he knows they don't change a thing, but he can't say that out loud. Edited July 1, 2022 by TheTeapot 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they will on a personal level if you wear an FP2 mask you won't catch it, quite simple, or maybe you don't like simple or maybe you are simple 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite obviously, masks do make a difference, otherwise medical professionals including dentists would not wear them. The purpose of wearing a mask is not only to protect the wearer but more importantly to protect other people, especially vulnerable people. Anyway, you can lead a horse to water but you can not make it drink...if it is stubborn and silly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
