A fine example of the uneducated....

SWYL - you can bang on endlessly about how useless masks are, but have you not noticed that no one here is saying everyone should rush out and buy one.

But you see a conspiracy.    Who exactly is behind that?  (Personally I suspect Morrison is making a big issue about Covid-19 just to drown discussion of his blatant sportsrort corruption.  Actually I don't - it just has that effect coincidentally.)

Stick to football - you know more about that.

It probably started from those disgusting live animal Markets in China. 

BUT it is possible that this has all been started to crash Stock Markets World Wide

Both scenario’s have merit depending on where you sit

(Don’t start me on Morrison, The ultimate Spin Doctor- he loves all this stuff, brings him closer to the Pentacostal Rapture)

It discusses the failure to implement quarantining, the poor health services and facilities and the inability to perform proper testing. Religious gatherings are one place of contact, just as football games, the F1 GP etc would be here... anywhere where there are large gatherings... nothing to do with religion per ce!

In fact, a quote from that very article you cited, flies in the face of your own earlier comments, yet you’re happy to cherry pick the bits that suit your agenda: “As the coronavirus crisis unfolded, religious leaders kept Islamic holy sites open and Iranian companies even exported their face masks to help China.” (it also says that the lack of masks has led to widespread panic).

 

I'm thinking it's time this thread was locked. It's no longer about the MFC or football generally and is diverging into the dangerous and distasteful territory of eugenics.

Read my post again and see if you can take my comments in context. You went from 2 doctors to “multiple sources”... just like the media, you are overstating or manipulating the language to give your comments more veracity.

I couldn’t care less whether you’ve worn a mask or not... there are most likely plenty who haven’t, who have contracted the virus and are probably wishing that they had worn one.

I couldn’t help but notice in numerous posts by myself and others, you have continually failed to explain how gloves are useful.

Completely off track again. As I recall, you were blaming religious gatherings.

Unless you wear a very specific type of mask (which most people don’t have), wear it properly (which most people don’t), and implement proper procedures while wearing with (ie don’t contaminate the mask, which most people end up doing) then wearing a mask is absolutely pointless and in fact may even increase your chances of getting sick.

Here is a link to the WHO site re when to use masks:

https://www.who.int/emergencies/diseases/novel-coronavirus-2019/advice-for-public/when-and-how-to-use-masks
 

It does say the following (but I would have thought that as there is a 14 incubation period in which victims show no signs, but are contagious, then surely it would be prudent to wear a mask anyway):

• If you are healthy, you only need to wear a mask if you are taking care of a person with suspected 2019-nCoV infection.
• Wear a mask if you are coughing or sneezing.

Yes Religous gatherings have been a major Coronavirus source

gloves will do a lot more than a mask

I believe fully Qualified Doctors a lot more than i do the Media Reports

CNN have been banging on daily for the last 6 weeks, but they never mention Gloves...

please explain difference between "fully qualified doctor" vs "qualified doctor" vs " doctor" and how you can tell the difference

just curious........wondering which one my doctor is

I’m not religious at all... but this is not about religion. It is about people gathering in confined spaces in large numbers. However, if you want to blame religion, then you should be aware that AFL is itself a form of religion.

No one here is advocating that. So why do you keep banging on about it?     We all know there are silly people buying toliet paper and masks.  It seems as if you are trrying to prove you are more educated than everyone else.  Are you?

True - in which case we must have sinned badly.
