The Hospital Mask

March 3, 2020

 

THIS frightening image (many apologies if it upsets you) is all you need to know about the coronavirus. People in face masks!! It’s a nightmare come true!

The cheap and easily attainable face mask is an indispensable prop. When whipping up hysteria and fear of a global pandemic, you don’t have to offer any hard, independently-verified proof that thousands have died or that the virus even exists, you just have to show pictures of people in hospital masks, even though, according to the surgeon general, the mask doesn’t even protect against the virus. Images of technicians in laboratories and a few empty streets in China help too.

We see no death or suffering, but the mask tells us all we need to know. The American economy is going to go into a tailspin. Millions of us are going to die. Brave scientists and selfless pharmaceutical manufacturers are going to work around the clock developing a vaccine and further cementing in our minds that we really need drugs to live. We’re going to have to rely a lot on the government to keep things in control — and we’ll have to stay glued to the screen for regular updates of the made-for-tv reality show, “The Virus,” which stars people in masks and latex gloves.

If you’re not afraid, look at some of the real evidence of what awaits us —  masks. They’ll make us look like robots — and show that we basically distrust each other. But that’s okay. Being a human being, with that terrible burden of thinking in a germ-filled cosmos, was over-rated anyway.

Wouldn’t you be breathing a lot of your own bacteria when wearing a mask? Those things also collect a lot of moisture.  Very unnatural and uncomfortable. What are they made of, that we would feel confident with breathing?
