hoo,
Which is more frightening, having to take a covid test or the prospect of thousand of potentially positive students going home for xmas and spreading this disease over hundreds of communities around the country ??

We definitely deserve the right to infect and kill others. F the elderly and the other vulnerable people. I am not wearing a mask and I am definitely not social distancing. I have my rights and I want to infect others and kill them. Well said. We're on the same page. The liberty to kill vulnerable people comes first. It's too much work to wash hands, wear a mask, and to social distance to an extent. I am not doing it. Liberty!

Irrelevant. Nobody's wearing N-95s to work or to Wal-Mart and certainly not to college football games. All people are wearing are cloth masks which are totally useless.

KN95 and N95 masks are common. That said, even the surgical masks stop over 60% at the least. They are everywhere. So there's that. That said, I prefer to kill people because masks bother me and infringe on my right to kill people. Also, they make my ears itch and tickle my nose. That alone gives me the right to kill almost 99 year old Joe21.

"KN95 and N95 masks are common."
You obviously have no idea what an N-95 respirator is. It's not a mask. And they aren't common. I've literally never seen anyone wearing one in public and neither have you.

KN95s are uncertified Chinese garbage. The Chinese just stamp "KN95" on worthless cloth and sell it to gullible Westerners like you. They don't stop a #### thing that's the size of a respiratory droplet that could carry COVID-19. Any "studies" you've seen to the contrary are methodologically flawed and paid for by Chinese research dollars.

LOL imagine believing that some zoomer reporter for Business Insider is an expert on airborne virus transmission. Google "Gell-Mann Amnesia" right after you google "Dunning-Kruger." You suffer from both.
There is zero evidence that mask mandates have done anything whatsoever to stop coronavirus transmission. Places that have strict mask mandates are just as bad off as places that don't. That's science. Some nonsense zoomer reporter article from Business Insider is not science.

No one who has any professional expertise with masks and respirators would say any of the nonsense you have. You're just googling stuff and pretending to be an expert. You didn't even know KN95s are uncertified Chinese garbage.
You can tell that current mask mandates aren't effective because they literally don't have any discernible effect on coronavirus transmission rates. You can't defeat that with "but this website says they do work!" They clearly don't. If they did, then places where they have strict mask mandates would have defeated COVID-19 while places that don't would be suffering rampant infections. That's not happening because masks that are available to the general public simply don't stop airborne viruses.

KN95 is a made up designation to confuse someone to believe that they are getting a N95 respirator and to avoid being arrested for selling counterfeit goods. Pretty funny how people now think KN95 is a real standard.

I've been in the safety industry for more than 25 years.
There is so much misinformation about masks and respirators on the internet. I'll admit some of the memes that try to explain mask effectiveness are humorous. Most of the "experts'" articles I read who quote "science" and "studies" misinterpret or misrepresent key information.
Couple of points for consideration:
N95 is an effectiveness rating for respirators. N, R, P and 95, 99, 100 are part of an alpha-numeric rating for filter effectiveness. There is an approval process to make/sell these NIOSH-certified respirators. Respirators are required to have a "TC" number and certification with the respirators at point of sale (in box, on packaging, label, etc...)
There are two types of respirators: supplied air respirators (SAR) and air purifying respirators (APR). SARs refer to air line respirators and self-contained breathing apparatus. APRs refer to negative pressure and powered, air purifying respirators.
KN95 is a made up number to sell "masks". My best guess is it was developed by an entrepreneurial person who wanted to make a quick dollar. It sounds like N95, but is different enough to avoid legal trouble. No certification for filtering effectiveness required since it is not a respirator.
Respirators are used to protect the wearer from airborne contaminants (aerosol, particulate, vapor, gases for APRs, and in some cases for SARs - oxygen deficient environments, etc...).
Surgical masks are used in a sterile environment to protect the environment from the mask wearer.
Based on my knowledge of respiratory protection, I have professional opinions that differ from most of the information I see posted on the internet regarding overall protection. And yes, my opinions are based on science. I trust the science as I use it to provide respiratory protection to end users.
My point is this: we're doing it all wrong. The mask concept to protect everyone is backwards. Remember, masks are used to protect a sterile environment. We don't live in a sterile environment. Respirators are used to protect the wearer from harmful airborne contaminants. If you want to protect people, put respirators on them.
The only problem with respiratory protection for COVID-19 is the size of the virus. It is smaller than any particulate that can be caught in the most efficient respirator filter media with 99.99% efficiency or 100 rating.

laid-back,
I think I followed much of your post, but i have a question. While I understand that masks (not respirators) are meant to prevent germs from getting into a sterile environment, are you saying that masks do NOTHING to reduce the chance of spreading the virus to other people in general settings??

airborne contaminants we need to take the personal protective equipment (PPE) approach and use respirators.
The concept of mask wearing seems counter-intuitive. This concept says I have to rely on the effectiveness of someone else's "mask" for protection. It assumes that the environment is sterile, and the only way I can get infected is if I breathe someone else's exhaled contamination. It also assumes that everyone is a transmitter.
In a "general setting", there is no way to prove the effectiveness of a mask. I think the mask concept provides a false sense of security in that the mask provides respiratory protection. There are so many variables to account for...
My opinion: I think we were told not to wear masks in the beginning of the pandemic because the smart guys in the back of the room knew they wouldn't provide effective protection. I think mandating mask usage was a means to avoid panic with the general public. Not saying that's good or bad...
I justify wearing my mask when shopping because it makes people feel better. I don't believe a mask keeps me safe from exposure. If I'm worried about exposure, I wash my hands frequently and use hand sanitizer.
Also, I thought it was interesting to see Joe Biden's mask efforts. Without being political... I've seen pictures of him wearing a disposable N95 respirator under a mask. The respirator is there for his protection and the mask is there to show his compliance to the mask concept.

The efficiency rating is not a catch all.
Nov 9, 2020, 11:11 AM
|

It is specific to particle size filtration.
A 95 rating means the filter media is 95% effective in blocking particles that are .18 microns. 99 and 100 ratings mean the filter media is 99% and 99.99% respectively effective in blocking the same particle size.
If I have a particle that is smaller than .18 microns, I can't filter it with media that is only effective down to .18 microns. That's not to say that I can't filter it, I just don't have a test to verify. The NIOSH testing allows for a test particle size of .185 microns +/- .020. For example, a particle that is smaller than .16, the filter media is 0% effective. If the particle is larger than .18 microns, the media can be 95%, 99%, or 99.99% effective in stopping it.
COVID-19 varies in size from what I can tell. Some variants are really, really small and others are just small when compared to other viruses.
To your point, 80% protection against a virus is better than none. This is why I believe respirators are better than masks.

Body armor that stops 80% of bullets is utterly useless when the guy with the gun is shooting billions of bullets at you. It's the same thing with masks and airborne viruses. Anything less than an N-95 is useless and N-95s are no panacea.

OK Chemistry,
Now you are just being irrational and contrarian. The link that Carlsbad provided clearly shows the sources of the info in the chart: Duke University, Journal of Hospital Infections, Public Health England, University of Chicago, University of Illinois.
So if you actually have EVIDENCE to the contrary, now is the time to present it. Otherwise, I have to question any connection that you have to science beyond your screen name.

The evidence that masks don't work is the public health data that demonstrates coronavirus is mass infecting people in places that have mask mandates just like it is in places that don't. No more evidence is needed.
There are some people on this board (like me) who have professional expertise with masks and respirators and PPE. We are all explaining to you low-information types why masks (especially KN95s) are functionally useless. The only way you could seriously impact infection rates with respiration filtration is if everybody wore N-95s or something better all the time. But there's not enough money or PPE material on the planet to allow that.

Look, the way people are wearing masks in US is an absolute joke. Protection? More like a secondary contamination to me. A piece of cloth CANNOT serves any meaningful protection. Will government supply N95 masks for free? BTW, have you worn N95 for more than 30 min?

Yeah I have. I fly here and there. Basic surgical masks limit the spread as well and they are no big deal. Next. You think a surgical mask is a secondary contamination piece? Really. You should step away from the conversation. By the way, you can get them free at many places now.

Any vulnerable person who goes to a bigtime college football game in the middle of an airborne viral pandemic is 100% at fault if they catch the Chinese plague. No sympathy whatsoever for somebody who did something that stupid. If you're an 80 year old 400 pound diabetic with asthma and COPD you don't need to be hanging out in a group of 20,000 people on a cold November night. And the rest of society shouldn't have to stop living their lives and running their businesses because you're in such bad health that stubbing your toe is likely to kill you.

The good news is that those people who charged the field will never see another person again after they charged the field. What's the danger? All is good.

Try writing that post again in a coherent fashion. Or are you literally claiming that everybody who went on the field at Notre Dame is going to instantly drop dead from coronavirus?

Try reading again, chemistry dude. It was coherent for anyone with the basic fundamental study of elementary English. Sorry it confused you and it was complicated for you to comprehend. Give it another shot.

This makes absolutely no sense unless you're claiming that they all instantly either (a) dropped dead or (b) went blind. Obviously all of those people will continue seeing other human beings in their daily lives.

Nah, it's pretty straight forward. My gut feeling is that you had have someone else take your English class to graduate college, if you did.

"Straightforward" is one word, not two. And your second sentence is missing a word. I'm pretty sure if one of us is an ESL, it's you.

Chemistry,
C'mon man. The letter itself indicates that the university is concerned about those students spreading the virus throughout their community at ND at when they go home.
ND has called on their students to follow the CDC guidelines to help allow the university to function as best as possible. Saturday night, the students violated those guidelines in a major way and the university is trying to ameliorate the damage as much as is possible.
I think most of the students will understand that.

I think you are missing the point.
I don’t have a problem with them requiring testing before allowing them to register and enforcing guidelines to limit spread. After all, choosing and attending a college is a privilege not a right. Therefore, the students are welcome to refuse to comply, they are just welcome to sit out a semester or choose to go somewhere else.
The issue I have, and what I think you are missing, is the University’s role in causing this mess. If their response was going to be this severe and draconian, The university never should have had students at the game to begin with. Essentially, they are violating their own rules that the plan to punish others “severely” for not following. Add in that their president contracted covid from an event where he didn’t wear a mask, and this is hypocritical as hell. Lastly, the thing I have the biggest issue with is not allowing someone to freely travel about this country. I get that this boils down to the right vs privilege thing, but it does not seem to be that big of a stretch of the imagination where your governor, or state Legislatures, or Congress, or a presidential EO finds some similar thing to prevent you from doing until you have COMPLIED with whatever they want. Can’t leave your home for groceries, can’t travel more than 3 miles from your house, can’t be out in groups.
You are being incredibly myopic and childish claiming everyone who doesn’t think like you do must automatically want to kill people. Or are racist, or homophobic, or whatever kind of -isms and -phobias there are out there. What you fail to see is your gross over generalization, some may say stereotyping, of a large group of people (perhaps 48% of this country) by your misguided beliefs or interactions with a few, is very similar to that which what you claim your political opponents are guilty. Can you not see you are becoming exactly what you pretend to be against?

XJ,
First of all, I want to take your point about making generalizations about groups of other people. In the coming months, I think we all need to make an effort to reach out to people that may see things differently than us. Let us try to appeal to our better natures and open up real discussion again.
I think Carlsbad (& I) is frustrated by the ongoing refusal of so many on this board to recognize scientific expertise and be willing to do the oh so easy thing of wearing masks & social distancing. If people would have just done that from the beginning, we would be in a much better position both economically & health-wise. Stronger measures like the ones we are discussing here might be unnecessary by now.
Secondly, the university was trying to operate as normally as possible while still following the guidelines to keep everyone reasonably safe. They were trying to strike a balance between rationally dealing with the virus and allowing our lives to continue with some semblance of normality.
That includes attending a football game - with masks and social distancing. The students failed to do this and now the University is trying to limit the damage to the local and distant communities. To anything else would be the unreasonable thing.

ND is a private club. They can place restrictions on their membership.
Notre Dame is part of a government-run higher education cartel. There is no such thing as a truly private college anymore outside of unaccredited bible colleges and the like whose degrees aren't recognized as valid by the government or by 99% of the professional and business communities.
Any college that offers government-accredited degrees is a governmental entity even if they are nominally private.

Injun,
I feel like I am bending a little bit to try to see your point of view. OK, I take note that ND's requirements are out of the ordinary. The President of the university acknowledges such in the letter.
But there is a real threat to the students, their families, and their communities. So the university is requiring that the students all take an pretty non-invasive test to assess the threat and be able to take the necessary measures to try to protect them all.
I think any suggestion that this is the beginning of some totalitarian effort is hyperbolic and unreasonable. It makes you sound like the boy who cried wolf.

Wow, so a 1 am post about a concern of overreach has turned
Nov 9, 2020, 9:33 AM

into a full political pi$$ing match.
I'll wear my mask in public. I'll wash my hands. BTW, it's really amazing that there is a huge portion of the population that don't. I am a bit of a germaphobe anyway.
When Biden says he will shut down the virus...what does that mean? He never offered an explanation. Trump was an idiot for not pressing that in the debate. The moderator never pressed him on that. The media has never pressed on that.
ND can do anything they want to their students. I don't care. But, I do have great concern with this country going forward, that the government will do anything they want to force states to comply.
It starts with a mandatory mask mandate. Seems simple enough. Then it moves to mandatory quarantines for small areas, cities, could even be states with the Federal govt forcing states by withholding funds.
Mandates will be fought in the SCOTUS. It's the slippery slope that I'm concerned about.
AOC tweeted a passive aggressive tweet about making a list of all Trump supporters and hinting of retribution.

A) what does this letter have to do with Biden? Trump is the current president.
B) how is this a violation of anyone’s liberties? A university or business has the right to make requirements for people who are on their property just as those same people have the right to go somewhere else.

Biden will be 1 term. The Republicans will have a quality candidate and we will see who the Dems have in 2024. People just voted Biden to just fill the gap until 2024. He is a temporary way of dealing with a problem.

My nightmare has come true. I heard Harris interview a few years ago before she was famous and had to watch her mouth. Of course , that interview is gone!! I was in complete shock at the anti American and racist evil coming out of her mouth. I had never heard anything like that. People have no idea who they’ve given power to. We will soon find out.

So are you in favor of rounding up every homosexual, drug user, and prostitute on the planet and forcing them to all have AIDS tests, then quarantining the ones who test positive until a cure can be found?
Just curious how far the public health totalitarian streak goes with you people. Because it's irrational to treat COVID like typhoid but not do the same with AIDS, which is far deadlier and far more contagious in degenerate communities.
