The Debate on Facemasks Continues Even As COVID-19 Cases Spike Across the Country

With people from both sides making claims about masks, which side of the fence are you sitting on?

There is no denying that COVID-19 has bought out some crazy and unsubstantiated claims from people on both sides of the facemask debate. It seems that everywhere you look, there is a new study being released that backs up claims from both sides of the mask debate.

It seems that some people are anti-mask simply because someone has recommended that they wear face masks. It wouldn’t be unreasonable to believe that those same people would be pro face mask if the government was telling them not to wear facemasks.

Some of the comments we have received on our Facebook page highlight the extreme and often uneducated lengths people will go to push their own agendas on whether you should or shouldn’t be wearing a facemask.

“The same ones making us wear masks are giving the kids autism through the 70+ vaccine schedule. Tyrant psychopath banker incentivized depopulation bs. Follow the money. – Maxwell Wentworth.”

“Take that mask off already. You are not sick and neither am I.  Show your face before it’s too late. And the new world order will control everything you do. Get it. – Stacy Curtis.”

“NO MORE MASKS!!!!! I don’t know what it is going to take for you people to get that??!! My daughter is autistic and she hates masks. We will not make our girls wear them. Enough of this mask nonsense!! – Chris Jarocki.”

“Wearing a cloth face covering does not weaken your immune system or increase your chances of getting sick if exposed to the COVID-19 virus. Wearing a cloth face covering, even if you do not have symptoms of COVID-19, helps prevent the virus from spreading. https://www.healthychildren.org/English/health-issues/conditions/COVID-19/Pages/Mask-Mythbusters.aspx – Patricia Farley”

That’s just a few of the comments which we received on our Facebook page recently on a post about facemasks.

Unfortunately, we don’t have a definitive answer on whether or not facemasks could help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Still, the majority of health experts, including the CDC, believe that face masks could help to prevent you from getting COVID-19 as well as spreading it to other people and infecting them.

Where do you stand on face maks?
