Because the basic premise is false. What you said makes no sense as you’ve just regurgitated what main stream has said. Asymtommatic is code for not being sick. This whole covid thing is a sham
Asymptomatic means you don't show symptoms. This is the case for most sicknesses. Before you get the symptoms of the common cold, you first catch the cold and then you are contagious before the symptoms appear. You are asymptomatic and that is when you are mostly spreading the cold because you don't even know you have it and you're out and about in your daily life. Once the symptoms appear, you most likely stay home until you recover so you're not really spreading it anymore.

It's the same with COVID (and the flu and a lot of other similar sicknesses).

As for "this whold covid thing is a sham" - where did you get that from? Or is that just your opinion and not based on any facts?

Then muzzle yourself all the time if that’s the case. Because you could possibly have a cold or flu being out and about spreading it but yet show no symptoms. Oh but yet most, they say, never show symptoms with this so called virus. So explain that? It’s a sham because the virus has never been purified nor gone through Koch’s postulates. On top of that the PCR test cannot diagnose any virus. The inventor of the test will tell you that much. And last, germ theory is a lie

I wear a mask all the time in any situation, indoors or out, where I am can or will be within 10 feet of anyone else outside of my household. But it's not about the common cold - I only gave that as an example. If someone else gets the cold they will almost certainly survive it. It's COVID that I am trying to help prevent the spread of.

As for those who NEVER show symptoms, that's a very small percentage of the people who get COVID. But they do exist. It happens also with flu or cold - people do get the flu or a cold and not show any symptoms. I'm surprised anyone would not know that, but maybe it's not surprising since the spread of the cold or flu is nowhere near as devastating as the spread of COVID.

As far as the virus having "never been purified nor gone through Koch's postulates", none of that means it's "a sham". Not sure why you expect me to believe your opinion over the facts from actual doctors and healthcare professionals who know better. What you call a "sham" has killed hundreds of thousands of people, including a few I know, and infected a few people I know as well who luckily survived it (but most of them have lingering effects). No, not a "sham".

What? Asymptomatic means showing no symptoms despite infection. They taught this concept in sex ed, how are people now doubting this?

Is muzzle a regional name for a mask?

You've chosen to buy into quacks on the internet rather than scientists and medical professionals. The whole thing you've just regurgitated is conspiracy theory, and not reflective of reality.

I personally know several people who were on ventilators due to Covid. Some were able to recover, others are still hanging on to life. None of these were people above 70, some were as young as in their 30s.

You don't even understand the difference between pre-symptomatic and asymptomatic (which is what i had referred to my post). You posts reek of ignorance and you seem to be proud of your ignorance. The disinformation you're spreading is dangerous.

A large swath of people have decided that education and science are conspiracies, and that the only truth you can find is either in some schmuck's Youtube channel or from Trump. They are so invested in their theory of the massive corruption that even the most common sense things are rejected because someone from the "mainstream media" may have said it.

It'd be funny if i wasn't living in a society with so many of these people celebrating ignorance.

The only quacks are those who blindly follow without any critical thinking or research. I do not believe in the lie of germ theory. Research the alternative and see where that takes you. Unless you are to lazy to do so. The only ignorance is that many like you are very naive to believe our wicked governments are actually telling us the truth.

You promote a theory that has never been proven. Look in the mirror and ignorance is looking rt at you. Your post is hypocritical

It’s what the simple minded gladly do to themselves out of ignorance

So, that is a no, right? The only muzzle I am familiar with is for animals to attempt to keep them from biting, but I was willing to check to see if this was a regional name for masks. Multinational forum ya know.

That would partially explain why incidents like this keep happening....

Joe Biden isn't against wearing a mask - it is someone who is adamant about NOT wearing a mask that should wear one. Plenty of people in Texas and Florida and Arizona who qualify, although they are starting to die off.

But a muzzle would still be a good idea for him. It might help his election chances.

The mask is primarily to reduce the disbursement of the virus of the wearer, not to protect the wearer from the virus in the air. It only works when everyone* is wearing them (everyone being everyone infected with the virus - since you can spread it before having symptoms, that is why everyone should be wearing it).

4+ months in and those against masks still don't even understand the basic premise of the masks (and it shows in their arguments against using them).

When you consider the contradictory information given to us from the "scientists" during those 4+ months, it's amazing you can't understand why people aren't wearing them:

“There is little data that wearing surgical masks in general protect the wearer from becoming infected with COVID-19, while giving the wearer a false sense of protection,” Andrew M. Welch, medical center director for the New Mexico VA Health Care System, noted in a Wednesday email obtained by New Mexico In Depth and ProPublica.
