A new poll reveals abortion access concerns Gen Zers much more than their older counterparts. With this in mind, the GOP shouldn't be surprised it's losing young voters. The Supreme Court's Dobbs decision appears to have ruined any chance of winning over many Gen Z voters, recently released polling shows."

| kenarman Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 14 Posts: 4530 | A very thorough peer reviewed examination of mask studies has found that mask have little to no effect on stopping virus infections. The studies included N95 masks which also had very mixed results. https://www.cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.1002/14651858.CD006207.pub6/full "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you."

And the flip side :-) Masks work It's just common sense when stuff spreads through the air https://theconversation.com/yes-masks-reduce-the-risk-of-spreading-covid-despite-a-review-saying-they-dont-198992 Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

| DoubleGold Member since: Jan 26, 2023 Threads: 30 Posts: 2506 | I think the human body is designed to protect and/or heal naturally through our immune system. Now, it could be a person's immune system is not functioning properly as designed. Like if a person was obese and weighed too much for their height. In those cases, a mask may or may not help, which is what I think the above types of posts refer to. It'd be similar to a baby living inside a plastic bubble because of the baby's weak or non-existent immune system. We are designed to get sick and develop an immunity, not to try to prevent getting something. That could explain why I don't normally get sick like others do. I'm no superman, but I know an immune system can be counter-intuitive. The question for me becomes, is getting sick good for our longevity and immune system for normal healthy humans? |

| DoubleGold Member since: Jan 26, 2023 Threads: 30 Posts: 2506 | I don't think the medical community know how viruses behave. There are some that believe a virus is bad and can be transmitted from being to being. It could be viruses originate in our own body and protect us by trying to destroy what has invaded our body, quite the opposite of what is generally believed. So if we are measured as having a virus due to anti-bodies present, that could be our immune system trying to protect itself by creating the virus within our own body. I don't think it has been proven that a specific virus has been transferred from one body to another. It could be both bodies created the same virus. |

We probably don't need to have any scientific research anymore and it will save a ton of money. All we need to do now is ask TP. What ever he thinks obviously trumps true science. "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you." Benjamin Franklin |

| DoubleGold Member since: Jan 26, 2023 Threads: 30 Posts: 2506 | That would make sense about science. I located the article below that's very interesting. It includes a brief history of the left. I am not sure if it's true with the politically left. It also includes some references from the Holy Bible, that if taken in a political context become funny. LOL Interestingly, the English word for right (being correct) is the same word used for conservatives. ----------------------------------------------------------- Are Left Handed People Evil? 5 Reasons Why We’re Hated! https://leftyfretz.com/are-left-handed-people-evil/ ----------------------------------------------------------- |
