@Richard .. you seem to just keep repeating info you have already posted . Including statements which are misinformed .
In my country property maintenance also includes outdoor maintenance such as mowing lawns and clearing/tidying sections (not considered landscaping here ).
I have never claimed to wear or support the use of cloth masks . I am a highly skilled health professional . Wearing full PPE and following infection control protocols is not paranoia
You claim you are not a risk . Without knowing your medical history I can identify at least 4 risk factors that you have . Denial will not keep you safe . Best of luck .
blonde, you need to go back and read what I wrote. you state I never supported wearing proper protection when it is needed, and that is not true.
in fact, I've stated you need to use proper safety gear that will actually protect you multiple times.
I also dint say wearing proper PPE in a covid rich environment was being paranoid, in fact I advised you personally to do so.
I said I was not being paranoid about fallowing reports that says we must wear it at all times. because it is not necessary to do so. while you state I'm in denial based on what you believe to be true. I state I'm fallowing the science I trust. just as your fallowing what you trust.
both points of view are supported..
I say I'm not at risk. because as I said medically I'm not. and I'm more at risk of being accidentally poisoned or electrocuted, then I am catching covid from work.
you state I'm repeating my self, well, so are you.
but you are saying I did not say things ,that I did say.
as well as saying things that I did not say nor imply.
when I stated non M95 masks were next to worthless, you countered my point, with out stating that you also recommend not using them. so I dont know what your personal stance was on non 95 masks other than, you seamed to be at least OK with them.
at any rate, I did not say you did wear paper or clothe masks, I said if they would make you feel safer. then that was your choice, as an example of peoples right to make their own decisions.
whether I agreed with them or not.
just as if you choose to walk down the street in full oxygen equipped bio hazard containment suit, would be your choice. (just dont expect too many others to do it too. ;-) )
I see a few people walking around wearing a mask out side, just walking by them selves (usually the blue paper ones). I have no problem with them choosing to do so.
my problem comes, when they try to tell me I have to also. because there is no proven data to prove we have to. (but I have also said that before.)
but there are several instances where wearing a mask out doors has put otherwise healthy people in the hospital and actually killed a few through asphyxiation.
they were people like joggers, kids playing sports, cyclists ect.. mainly due to restricted oxygen levels ,caused by moisture build up in the mask preventing proper ventilation. in short they suffocated them selves. to the point of blacking out or worse.
also we just had reports of up to a full third of this states medical staff , mainly nurses, walk off the job, rather than be forced to take any of the vaccines and / or were also fed up with being forced to wear sub standard PPE.
same with law enforcement and fire protection.
they are choosing to walk , rather than give in to government mandates. that stated they had to get vaccinated or not come in to work..
so there are large numbers of health and safety professionals, who are even more reluctant than I am. to fallow the current "guide lines".
this while those positions were all ready short staffed.
