Brycen17803:

Do lock downs and Social Distancing work?

gabrielchestnut:

i does but then not at the same time

Brycen17803:

If the virus is airborne, how would social distancing work?

badgirlhope:

Although spread of SARS-CoV-2 is believed to be primarily via respiratory droplets, the contribution of small respirable particles to close proximity transmission is currently uncertain. Airborne transmission from person-to-person over long distances is unlikely.

Brycen17803:

I'm popular now XD

jackiejackiejack:

it doess

Timmyspu:

We try to not copy things off of goggle @badgirlhope

Brycen17803:

But if someone is breathing out convid, someone who walks through that same area later, will get it as well, so... What's the reasoning behind the Social Distancing?

Isry:

Well the theory behind lockdowns and social distancing, but more specifically lockdowns is that if people are unable to come into contact with each other the virus will naturally die out as it has nowhere to go.

Brycen17803:

It hasn't worked so far, so why will they impose more lock downs?

Brycen17803:

And if the social distancing works, why the masks? If the masks work, why the social distancing? If they both work, why the lock down?

Isry:

It hasn't worked, because people are naturally selfish. If we lived in an ideal society then the lockdowns would have worked perfectly. Masks work for the same reason that you cover your face when you sneeze. Less particles are going to escape into the air if you wear a mask. Social distancing is a copout because people are too selfish. It works decently well, but really it's just to give people the option to go outside.

dismas:

no no they don't

Brycen17803:

If water can go through a mask, and you can smell air freshener through it, that's all you need to know. The masks DO NOT work. The military's NBC (Nuclear, Biological Chemical Warfare) Training states this: The only way to effectively combat a virus of any kind is to wear an air tight gas mask. Nothing else works against a virus.

Isry:

You're underestimating peace of mind. Masks are proven to help, do they eliminate the virus totally? No. However, there is scientific evidence to suggest that it does cut down on the particles that escape into the air which is the intent of masks in the first place.

Laylalyssa:

Masks cant help bruh, the sides of the masks are open

Laylalyssa:

as u can see in this picture the mask is open at the side where corona air can jus get in

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Laylalyssa Masks cant help bruh, the sides of the masks are open \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) dats true

Isry:

I appreciate your opinion, but that's just hearsay. You don't have scientific data to back it up. Even if we assume that the sides of masks are open. The point of masks is to limit transmission of the disease. Not specifically to keep yourself safe.

Brycen17803:

A virus can also get into your body easily through the eyes.

Isry:

You have to be incredibly close for that to even factor in.

badgirlhope:

sorry @Timmyspu

Laylalyssa:

The mask barely does anything, the virus can get into your eyes, or ears, also do you think that after the corona is 6 ft aways it jus starts moving upwards or something? 6ft apart means nothing

Isry:

As I've said before, social distancing is a copout so that selfish people can do what they want to do.

jbell:

I think it doesn't work

Laylalyssa:

This corona stuff is jus fake

Laylalyssa:

Tell me how someone catches a cough and then they go to the hospital for corona and then they jus die? like the ppl are telling them that if they have the slightest symptoms and they want u in the hospital so that they can kill you to make it seem like the virus is real.

Isry:

Basically if we lived in a society that thought about the greater good COVID wouldn't be the problem it is today. However, because we don't live in that society COVID is still around. American society is a product of the American dream and ironically it's the very thing that is killing the country. Look at politics if you want an example of this. Look at flat earth for example. There is data upon data upon data that the earth is not flat, and yet there are people that believe that it's all a giant conspiracy and the earth is flat. This is because they have too high an opinion of themselves and they believe that they, out of every person on the entire planet have seen through the conspiracy. If you're a student of behavior and sociology then the response to COVID shouldn't shock you.

jbell:

In my state we have a lot of covid-19 cases and we can't even go out like we used to do.

Laylalyssa:

so nobody read wut I sed, it actually made sense

Isry:

There's no data backing that up Layla. That's the problem if you had hard proof that this was taking place then I might believe what you're saying, but you don't. There's no evidence that doctors are purposely killing patients.

jbell:

Yea I have to agree because I know people that had it and gotten better by the doctors.

Laylalyssa:

The symptoms of corona are normal symptoms like headache, or a cough, and they tell ppl that they should go to the hospital if they have these symptoms. So if you coughed then your going to be like "omg I have corona ima go to the hospital" and then you go there and then suddenly DIE

jbell:

The symptoms of covid-19 is having score throat,Fever or chills,cough Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing,Fatigue,Muscle or body aches,Headache,New loss of taste or smell,Congestion or runny nose,Nausea or vomiting,and Diarrhea

Laylalyssa:

Those are all symptoms of a normal cold or fever

Laylalyssa:

so if anybody got those symptoms then they would automatically think they have corona and they go to the hospital and suddenly die

jbell:

I had it and it was the worse but the doctors got me better

Laylalyssa:

@Isry where u disappear to

Isry:

COVID gives people pneumonia which is why if someone has a preexisting health condition or their lungs aren't very strong they tend to have more serious problems that could include death.

Laylalyssa:

How do yk its cove causing that

Laylalyssa:

covid*

Isry:

Because of the scientific data that show what symptoms people that get COVID have. Pneumonia is one of those symptoms. If we then follow the logic it would make sense that COVID would kill older people and people with preexisting health conditions because they're the most susceptible to pneumonia.

Laylalyssa:

Even if whatever u said, the symptoms are just normal symptoms and they make the ppl believe they have Corona, and then they go to the hospital and die

Isry:

Pneumonia isn't "normal symptoms" it's a potentially deadly set of symptoms that if your lungs can't hold up will kill you. It literally fills the lungs with fluid so that it becomes hard to breathe for even the most healthy of individuals and deadly for those who are older or unhealthy.

Laylalyssa:

thats the only one

Laylalyssa:

and most of the patients dont have pneumonia

Isry:

If they have COVID the overwhelming amount of time they also have pneumonia. These two go hand in hand. I'd like to see proof that they don't and from a scientific source if I'm to believe your presumption.

Laylalyssa:

It's just logical and nobody is noticing, if you got a cough then u automatically think you caught the virus, and then you go to the hospital and die how does that work?

Isry:

You're refusing to refute my point. If you're going to constantly move the goalposts then this discussion is moot. I'm saying that pneumonia is responsible for many deaths. You're making the assumption that they just die for no reason when I'm providing evidence that they're is a legitimate reason they might be dying. I'm not going to speak on the validity of your "theory" because you've provided no evidence for it being accurate.

Laylalyssa:

They control the media, so if they dont want people to know what there up to then they wont allow it on the internet, like when there not going to be on the internet, and I was jus saying what I think not that its true, but I believe its true so

Isry:

Yeah, but your belief doesn't equate to truth. The media is a tired excuse. If there was validity to your theory there would be demonstrative proof of it. However, there's not so I can't in good conscience accept or believe wholeheartedly in it. There is demonstrative proof however, of my point which is why I'm more inclined to believe my side of this argument. I've provided facts whereas, you've provided opinions and parroted points you've heard other people say rather than have a fully formed and well thought out argument with data and facts to back it up. Just saying "muh media" isn't a very good argument.

Laylalyssa:

Ok, where do u expect me to find proof,

itsyogurl508:

AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY we gottt ddrammmamamammama GOOOOOO @Laylalyssa

Laylalyssa:

lol

jackiejackiejack:

you ppl doctors or sum

itsyogurl508:

no NERDS

jackiejackiejack:

lmao

Laylalyssa:

it makes sense

Laylalyssa:

You dont jus wake up cough and then have corona so u go to the hospital and die. There must be something that there doing to them in the hospital to make them die.

itsyogurl508:

BREH @Isry be fighting with a 15yr old like brehhhh u be getting ur self in drama rama arent u an ambassador like ur supposed to be the mature one.

jackiejackiejack:

why would the hospital kill people-

Isry:

I'm not a doctor, but I have evidence of what doctors know. Layla to your point about finding proof of it. If you are unable to find proof of your point of view that might be a hint to reevaluate your point.

jackiejackiejack:

kinda the opposite of there job

dismas:

no the vacine was out in 2 days and where the rats in the worlds maze

it was also it changes u @itsyogurl508

I'm not fighting with anyone, I'm merely providing another perspective on this issue and making people question what they believe and why. It's about critical thinking and not taking everything at face value. I've been entirely civil this entire time.

Isry:

Layla the problem is that you're just assuming that people wake up with a cough, go to the hospital and instantly die. That's just not an accurate representation of what happens. It's making a bold assumption with no evidence to back it up.

Isry:

I'm saying that it's not happening. That assumption has no evidence to back it up that's my whole point.

itsyogurl508:

@dismas @jackiejackiejack Let's keep this discussion on topic.

dismas:

ok /=|

jackiejackiejack:

isry arent you the one arguing with layla tho-

Isry:

If doctors were straight up killing patients someone would have blown the whistle by now. People would know about it. It would be national news.

u right doctors are killin people

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Isry Yes, I'm having a discussion about the topic of the question with Layla. \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) no ur not the question was ''Do lock downs and Social Distancing work?'' its a yes or a no question

Isry:

The overall question is far more complicated than a yes or no answer. My original argument was that lockdowns don't work because we live in a selfish society. Layla brought up this point about doctors killing patients to make "Corona real" which has no evidence backing it.

itsyogurl508:

It doesn't matter if the national media is on their side. Someone that works at the hospital would have blown the whistle.

Isry:

It is related to the question. I was responding to a point that Layla was making. It does have to do with whether or not lockdowns work, because in Layla's opinion they're totally unnecessary because COVID isn't as big of a problem as people make it out to be. That's why I'm responding to that point.

jackiejackiejack:

why you make covid capital like sis she aint that important

supie:

The post says "Do lock downs and Social Distancing work?" how is what you guys are talking about related to the question?

Isry:

I just explained how, supie.

supie:

mxddi3:

Hate to intervene, but, Layla, the doctors don't just kill people. I have had numerous people in my family who have tested positive for Covid, yet they are healthy now... They want you to go to the hospital because the people who have had Covid, they had the cough and other signs you mentioned above. So, yes, you may have a cold, but it is just a safety precaution to go to the hospital. I had a cold a few months back, with many signs of Covid, so they asked if I could get tested....It's not them killing people. It's public health and safety. To get to the point, I think that if we follow lockdown and social distancing rules, it will work actually. If we are in lockdown, then the airborne virus that Brycen has mentioned, it will eventually die out, as Isry said. For the masks, they are "open on the side" yeah but again, as Isry said, they're not meant to keep you 100% safe. They are to help stop the spread of the disease. Same with social distancing....if we all social distance, we do not come into contact with one another, which helps with the prevention of spreading germs. If we would listen to the things we are being asked to do, Covid would not be as serious as it is today. You can have your beliefs, but I'm just saying. As Layla said, the media controls things. Certain sites will have different claims. For all we know Layla, the source you have read could be a lie.... Please pay attention to the media you look out. The masks and social distancing have actually helped, it's just a matter of if the people will stop being so selfish and realize that these rules are to help, not harm.
