Whats not? Most people do little research on anything. Ask 10 random people to name 5 studies on mask percentages. None could do that. Ask them to name 5 policies of their favourite political party same again none can.

They dont care about you. Thats why they nearly kill you with cars or motorbikes.

Actually, as a pedestrian I find Thai drivers pretty considerate on average. You should try living in the Philippines for awhile.

How?!

 

Like when they ignore you at a crosswalk?

 

Or when the drive through the crosswalk while you are on it?

 

Or when you are crossing at the green man and they turn left round the corner and almost hit you.

Wearing a mask in indoor public spaces helps protect everyone in our community and especially those who are at higher risk of severe illness from COVID-19 and flu.

There you go you said it correctly, farangs don't wear masks much but they still do in places within Europe such as France 

 

From 1 August 2022, face masks are no longer mandatory in health establishments, but remain strongly recommended. Some local health authorities may still require masks, for example, Paris Hospitals (AP-HP), where masks remain mandatory for those aged 6 and above.

 

Your view and those of others that masks are not being worn outside of the country and Asia is misinformation and a lie.

COVID will never be "over", just like colds and the flu will never be over. But there is no longer a COVID pandemic. It's endemic.

 

If masks only didn't work and were not actually harmful, I would consider wearing one. But they are both ineffective - AND harmful, not to mention dehumanizing.

Calif for one. Just got back from 3 weeks, never wore a mask. It was odd at first, then normal.

Expand  

That's one place and not all of California is mask free, and neither is the rest of the world. I just returned from the Philippines and masks are worn there. 

 

In California masks are still being worn

Again, this topic is about civility, not law,

 

NSW is not a lefty state and the recommendations are at the behest of the medical community, not a political decision..

 

Those states just happen to be where the virus it most prevalent. The virus attacks lefty states because they pose the biggest threat to it.
