Just how insane those fact checkers are


Oct 20, 2020, 7:55 AM

Dude post a pic of masks he got with warning, by company, saying does provide ANY protection from covid-19.

Fact checkers says its false cause n95 masks are effective against covid 19. Which this mask is not.

Fact checkers = political hacks

A little misleading

they are just protecting themselves from litigation.

It is REALLY expensive to do the testing and then insurance liabilities make it almost impossible to say that you protect against anything. Even to say "anti-microbial" takes rigorous testing and insurance, legal oversight.

I know this first hand. To say that you protect against anything is almost impossible outside of medical equipment.

I don't know if I'd call it "fact-checking"

But I do believe using that to discredit the wearing of masks during this pandemic is misapplication of the warning.

I feel like for some reason people are just not getting this. My mask does not protect me that much. It protects you a lot. Your mask does not help you that much. But it helps me a lot. I wear one, not because I don't want to get the virus, but because I don't want my friends to get the virus.

Falsehood flies, and truth comes limping after it, so that when men come to be undeceived, it is too late; the jest is over, and the tale hath had its effect: like a man, who hath thought of a good repartee when the discourse is changed, or the company parted; or like a physician, who hath found out an infallible medicine, after the patient is dead.
- Jonathan Swift
