I couldnât be arsed. What Texas did was end their state mask mandate in public places. It doesnât mean people have stopped wearing masks, their health officials are still recommending wearing them and they are still mandated in federal buildings, airports, public transport, etc. Basically those who were wearing masks are still wearing them.
While masks are not foolproof and the rags people are wearing are useless, a surgical mask or N95 in particular offers a lot of protection indoors in shops etc. and people arguing against their use are morons (or dead).

Right.
Well tell me this thenâŚdo you think a chart exists anywhere which shows the trajectory of infection being altered by the introduction or lifting of a mask mandate?
This yank is winding up a big oneâŚ

Not a chart that has any meaning as there are so many other factors. The mandate probably made little difference as most people wear a mask anyway where a mask can help (in shops, public transport, etc). The big factor driving rates of infection and deaths down now is vaccines, you can see that clearly in places that have accomplished high levels of vaccination versus low (NI versus Ireland, the UK versus continental Europe).
This is really bizarre. Texas, like NI, is seeing a huge reduction in case numbers due to vaccination? Has the irish government been made aware of this?

But we werenât talking about now. You were busy claiming anyone arguing against masks was a moron or dead. Point to where their introduction or ending of legislation has made a difference

You can never make the blind see mate.
Canât say you didnât try.
They see bloody rightly
Iâm going to stop commenting on it anyway, not going to change anyones point of view here or elsewhere really.
We are talking about now, the chart you posted showed Covid cases continuing to decline in March (now), a decline that started in early February. The US started vaccinations in late December, so by early February immunity for a sizable portion of the vulnerable population had kicked in.
Yes, anyone arguing against wearing a mask in a high risk setting like a shop, public transport, etc., is a moron. As I said they are not foolproof but they do offer some protection.
How do you think the disease is spread from person to person?
