I don't need "scientific reasoning" to do basic math and use basic common sense.
And now there is scientific reasoning....sooooo.....guess I was right (again), eh? I just got there sooner than most.

I don't think she is at all.
But, I'll let her speak for herself.

Because we get all the criminal trash here from Charles and PG County, I guess that is why.

I don't get the females that can't file, take care of their cuticles and polish their own nails. Grow TF up!!and a pedicure for me is at least six feet away
This is why I posted the article by Dr. Scott Atlas in this thread and HERE
There ARE a ton of doctors who believe that there is a virus, it is more contagious than the flu (in some cases), more dangerous to some demographics of people (depending on their underlying medical conditions) and at the same time, it's not affecting certain demographics of people in any signifcant way, that some people never even know they were affected and that you should "sanitize", wash your hands, cover your mouth, yada yada yada to mitigate the spread of it. (the same things that are recommended to do for all viruses and general cleanliness)
Those same doctors disagree on all these restrictions, especially as we began seeing in hindsight that the restrictions did not change a lot of the statistics.
What a lot of us are saying is - do your mask if you want to. Stay home if you have to. Just don't go all Mrs. Kravitz on those in society who don't want to wear the mask or don't want to stay home. If someone is standing too close to you in line (mask or not!) just turn around and ask them to move back. I do that already. (well, I turn around and look at them and if they don't get the hint - then I ask)
If you want to patronize a business and it seems dirty to you - don't go in. If you want to eat at a restaurant and they're packed in like sardines and you don't want to rub elbows at a table next to you - ASK TO SIT SOMEWHERE ELSE or don't go in.
People used to have the free will to vote with their wallet. Now we don't because the Mrs. Kravitzes of the world are taking over. That's pissing off the majority of this country.
feet stupid and it's not polishing, it's taking care of things that otherwise would cost 3 times as much if a doctor does it.
Good enough reason and I prefer to have it done right, and not leave a trail of blood that later ends up getting infected.
Anyone catch Heather & T-Bone this morning. Had a guy on who started the protest over the 3-2 vote in Charles.
All the "experts" that testified said it was good to go, the 3 who voted against opening cited only one reason, to stand with our brothers and sisters in PG county.
While no evidence exists, not even the Sheriff can find it, they still accused the group that voiced their displeasure with the vote of being racist and making threats. The local version of Al Sharpton apparently comes out the winner. Once again, you can only be critical of what a straight white man does, otherwise you should be arrested.
Add this to the 101 reasons to keep out of Chuckles County and take my business else where.

I trust my feet to only one person and I tip her well because it's a lot of work (my nails) She tries to make sure that my feet stay healthy.
And there you have it. People have always had the freedom to stay in their home. It's just now they're demanding that everyone do it and turning into little tattletales. "Teacher! Billy's not wearing his mask!"
Apparently Ocean City was a madhouse over the weekend - people all over:
In Ocean City, visitors head back to beach and boardwalk after Maryland lifts stay-at-home order

Yet the person interviewed for the story is a Karen fretting that people weren't all wearing masks. "I'm scared, so you people should all wear a mask to make me feel better!" If he's scared, he should stay home and not expect everyone else to cater to him.
What's hilarious is the blocking of certain benches on the boardwalk - you can sit on this bench, but not the one next to it.
It would have made more sense to simply move the benches further apart. These "officials" with precisely zero common sense - yeah, these are the people the virusphobes consider the experts in health and safety.
Masks may actually increase your coronavirus risk if worn improperly, surgeon general warns | CNN
The US surgeon general not only wants people to stop buying facemasks to prevent coronavirus, but warns that you actually might increase your risk of infection if facemasks are not worn properly.
Masks Prevent Coronavirus Transmission, But You Still Shouldn’t Hoard Them
Unless you are health care professional, a hockey goalie, or Batman, or caring for someone who has an infection like a new coronavirus infection, you probably do not need to be hoarding masks djust because of the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak.

New Jersey driver crashes car after passing out from wearing N95 mask

And last but not least:
Masks work. A psychologist explains why they make you feel better, too.
Wearing a face mask does more for your mental health than it does for your physical health, says Amy Morin.
So the answer to your question is: Yes, it can hurt you.
My workday face mask is a bandanna, because it can just hang around my neck until a customer appears and it's needed. For non-work days, I've been using an accordion type handed out by the hospital to their patients, which I slip on to go into stores. If I need fuel, I figure I'll be outside of germ range of others and go nekkid. I got a stupid look from someone at Dash In while pumping without a mask. I gave them the best "**** you" look that I could muster.
It's interesting how different areas have different ways. In NB maybe 10% of people in the stores are wearing masks, and most of them are employees. Yesterday at Freiheit, nobody was wearing a mask. Saturday out on the river and in the Float House, nobody was wearing a mask, not even the employees.
Yet my understanding is that in SoMD, pretty much everyone is wearing their little mask and will give you the stink eye if you don't.
Which ones?
McKays in Leonardtown and Wawa in Mech.
I did get some dirty looks in line outside the BJs a couple weeks back. I had one of the #$#^& things but had no intention of wearing it standing on a sidewalk in the open air.

They call me ... Sarcasmo
A couple of weeks ago, I watched our masked and gloved cashier at McKay's scan our groceries, scratch her hair, scan some more, scratch her nose under her mask, scan some more and grab her water bottle to take a swig. After we were done, she continued scanning while still wearing the same gloves.
