Masks at Fiserv Forum

[4everwarriors]

So stupid. If you want to wear a mask, do it. If you want to stay home, great. Forcing people to wear a mask for no demonstrable benefit and without regard for their "status"... awful. #LastDays. (Ps if it's that important then allow no fans and/or lose the concessions).

Nah man, concessions make money. Can't do that. But, remember to pull your mask down while smoking. Money talks and bullchit walks. Tax dollars workin' for da man, hey?

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Ok, Dr. TAMU:

Cloth masks are little more than facial decorations. There's no place for them in light of Omicron," said CNN Medical Analyst Dr. Leana Wen, an emergency physician and visiting professor of health policy and management at the George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health, on CNN Newsroom Tuesday.

"This is what scientists and public health officials have been saying for months, many months, in fact," Wen added in a separate phone interview.

[/i]"We need to be promoting better high-quality masks everywhere, because right now a single-layer cloth mask just isn't cutting it against Omicron," said former US Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams. [/i]

We need to follow the lead of other nations like Austria who require real masks in public if we want to really stop this. They barely let the unvaccinated out in public.

Other countries, including Germany and Austria, have "switched their standard to say that a face covering in public must be at least a medical-grade surgical mask" in certain settings, she added.

Again Billy, this article doesn't say cloth makes are useless like you claim. It says they aren't as effective as surgical grade masks and is advocating for stricter mask mandates not getting rid of mask mandates.

If your argument is the Bucks aren't doing enough and should require surgical grade masks,  then this article supports that. What it doesn't support is that there should be no mask mandate

Conversely, you can just stay the f*ck home if you don't want to wear a mask.

Are you saying he posted a link without actually reading it???  Wow.  Reminds me of someone else...

Studies have shown that if two people in close proximity are wearing masks -- even cloth masks -- and one of them has Covid, there is very little likelihood of the virus passing to the other person. The percentage rises significantly if only one of the two is wearing a mask, and rises even more significantly if neither is wearing a mask.

The situation moves beyond "it's my choice, and I'm willing to take a risk" when a mask-less person becomes infected, doesn't know it, and then spreads the disease to somebody else; or when a mask-less person becomes infected and needs hospitalization, thereby depriving a non-Covid patient of an ICU bed and/or time with medical personnel.

C'mon man, schmatas don't protect chit, hey?

[wadesworld]

I hope people are telling their dentists and surgeons that they can take their masks off while treating them.  No need for masks.

[wisblue]

Cloth masks are worthless against Omicron per Dr Lena Wen on CNN yesterday and the pasted article.  Will only N95 and KN95 masks be allowed? If not then the requirement is just virtue signaling.

https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2021/12/23/1066871176/mask-n95-omicron-contagious

Even the article you cite does not say cloth masks are "worthless". It says they are "OK" but that OK might not be good enough.

If I'm wearing an N95 I would still like the people near me to be wearing some mask.

I had my teeth cleaned a couple of months back.   No need to go back ever again.     

Or,

I had a cleaning once and it didn't last.    It is all a scam.   

[The Lens]

Lens ... your post is dramatic and seems false or exaggerated

First ... Covid hit in March 2020 / not 19

Second... of course he could have seen people!  ( you're telling me he could not sit outside/ or travel over this past summer.... when cases were near zero) ???

I appreciate his service.  Really
But what Fiserv is doing means nothing
And will not " fix " anything

Fixed the typo.  March 2020.

VA policy was non residents had to stay 50 feet away if we met him outside.  He could stand outside his lobby and we could be off in the distance in the parking lot.  He was never allowed to travel even over the summer.  He was allowed to walk by himself on VA grounds, that is the extent of his "leaving" since 2020.  I am not exaggerating or embellishing.  Those are the realities.

Are those jerks still requiring pants? The outrage! I demand freedom for my naked butt to sit in a seat.

Thanks for that visual....

Carty or Petrocelli, hey?

The guy doesn't even live in Milwaukee and is crying over this.  It would effect his life for maybe 3 hours.

[Hards Alumni]

I assume those are old ladies from your days at Marquette?

Dream big!

The same logic as:

1. 70% of adults are fully vaccinated,

2. 90% of patients hospitalized with COVID are unvaccinated.

Conclusion: Vaccines don't work so what's the point of getting one.

Those numbers may not be precisely accurate, but I hear that kind of reasoning all the time.

I also wear a seat belt whenever I drive or ride in a car even though people wearing seat belts can be killed or seriously injured in accidents. I like to tilt probabilities in my favor when I can do it with an insignificant inconvenience.

We have been wearing masks at MU games all season. Hopefully this mandate
will stop MU students from yelling at me to "take off the Fauci diaper".

Why doesn't FD Joe and Fr. Fauci mandate no smoking, fast food, sugar, alcohol, etc. if they are so concerned about the health of the American public. What is going on here, hey?

Federal government has no say in these things, hey?  All up the the states, ai'na?

[4everwarriors]

This state's current numskull is certifiable, hey?

Yes, because smoking, eating fast food and drinking alcohol are just like a communicable disease.

I would have thought a "health care professional" could understand this.

Where I live is not relevant. I've been to five Marquette games this season already, bub.

I've had covid and am vaxxed. FOH "requiring" me to wear a mask at an arena, except when chugging beer or eating food. It's looney tunes thinking.

Uh, there are laws in place when these things affect other people (smoking bans in certain public places, drinking and driving, no Arby's on public transportation, or is that Durian?)

Since there is no vaccine requirement to enter Fiserv, they don't know who has been vaxxed or had Covid.  So it's simply easier to enforce if everyone is required to be masked.

Again, just don't go if it is too inconvenient for you.  The games are televised, so you wouldn't be missing anything.

No, Walker was voted out.
