Rep. Gohmert Tests Positive For COVID After Perennially Refusing To Wear Mask

Heck, I’d even pick up the tab on that…

I agree you really need an N95 if it’s direct protection you want. But the consensus on what to do seems to be you do all the mitigation you can manage to cut your own odds and slow the spread.

But not the N95 with the vent. They come both ways, and the vents are common on the ones like 3M sells at hardware stores for construction jobs. As I understand it, the vent is a one-way exhalation valve to make it more comfortable, but it doesn’t have a filter to protect against transmitting exhaled virus particles through the vent if you’re infected but don’t know it.

There’s no explaining East Texas…

The only explanation for East Texas is Arkansas.

Louisiana doesn’t even explain it.

Yep, the vent protects you but not others. But the ones without vents are way harder to breathe through (unless they’re specially designed) and much more likely to leak around the edges (btdt). So at that point you’re in expert consultant territory.

I’m all out of thoughts and prayers to send! SAD!

Will Cameroon let them in?

I was with all of you until this. It is making it mighty hard to stick to my beliefs.

How much hydroxychloroquine has that oaf taken? Remember? He was touting it with all the lung power at his command when Mr. Make Matters Worse first suggested it.

Or how about getting some of that ‘mist’ that cures COVID he claimed the Germans have?

I love the picture they chose to go with the article. He looks pretty annoyed there. Probably not at Gohmert though.

You are too kind.

Thanks, but no need to worry.

All is well, health-wise and otherwise, though I do tire easily nowadays.

But mostly I’m just busy, from six or seven weeks ago through (perhaps) January.

Hang in there.
