https://publichealthmdc.com/documents/2020-07-07_Order_8.pdfI guess public officials agree there should be exceptions.
So now we're ignoring the science?Look, just because public officials are allowing for exceptions doesn't mean there are, in fact, medical conditions that prevent mask wearing. I'll stand with the doctors who say there are virtually none. And by my remark that anyone who claims a medical condition prevents him/her from wearing a mask is almost certainly lying.
Thanks. I'm not saying that people shouldn't wear masks. Merely stating that for a very select few people it isn't an option to wear one.
Then we agree. If someone claims they have a medical condition that prevents them from wearing a mask, they're almost certainly lying.
Those who claim they can't wear a mask because of a medical condition are almost certainly lying."There are no known medical conditions aside from a severe skin condition [like a very severe burn that needs medical attention] on your face that would prevent a person from wearing this type of mask,” David Kaufman, MD, pulmonologist and director of the medical ICU at Tisch Hospital, tells Health. “If you can wear a scarf to keep your face warm in the winter, you can wear a mask to prevent the spread of disease.”https://www.health.com/condition/infectious-diseases/coronavirus/can-you-be-medically-exempt-from-wearing-a-face-mask
I found out this week a co-worker in our other Connecticut facility apparently terribly bloodied himself good while shaving and spent the day wearing the mask at work. He came down with an infection on his face that required antibiotics.
Thanks for the qualifiers
Being dumb is not a medical condition.
Saw an interview of a group down in Florida protesting masks saying "my body my right" I don't think they picked up on the hilarious irony

Hold up, Cfollow is a scientist. Let's allow him to explain himself.
Did he wear a band aid? Did he put antibiotic lotion on his terrible cut? Did he clean his mask or put on a new/clean one?Unless he did these things, the fault is his, not the mask's. Being dumb is not a medical condition.
Georgia Governor Brian Kemp bans masks in 15 local Georgua governments:https://apnews.com/71bc07efaebc1b2d3b9aaf9bdc795d5d?utm_medium=AP&utm_source=Twitter&utm_campaign=SocialFlow
This is the dumbest thing I ever heard. FFS.
Georgia’s Gov. Brian Kemp is explicitly banning Georgia’s cities and counties from ordering people to wear masks in public places. He voided orders on Wednesday that at least 15 local governments across the state had adopted even though Kemp had earlier said cities and counties had no power to order masks.An increasing number of other states order residents to wear masks in public, including Alabama, which announced such a ban Wednesday.The Republican governor has instead been trying to encourage voluntary mask wearing, including telling fans that reduced infections from mask-wearing would make college football season possible.Kemp’s move is likely to infuriate local officials in communities that had acted, including Atlanta, Augusta, Savannah, Rome and the governor’s hometown of Athens-Clarke County. Overall, mask orders by Wednesday were covering 1.4 million of Georgia’s more than 10 million residents.
