#pro-mask

One of the rules of this union conference is basically "don't start shit" but I was picking up a name badge because I didn't get one at registration, and this woman walking up behind me said something like

"Ugh, it's so stupid they're making us wear masks. It's completely pointless, and everyone is just complying-"

And then she came up beside me, and we made eye contact over my adorable black-with-rainbow-stars mask

And I raised my eyebrows at her. I waited for her to continue. I waited for her to say anything. I was so ready to pounce.

She paused. Then she kept walking

I took the vaccine in September.

The two shots of it k?The first shot just hurt my arm for a day, nothing serious. 

Then 20 days Later I go take the second shot.

I almost fucking died on the second shot, I had a horrible pain in my neck, so bad I was able to see the nerves which acted up kind of bullshit (Sidenote this was the back of my neck who hurt so go ahead of science side of Tumblr explain this please.) It felt like being stung by a bee on the base of my neck.My left arm hurt for 3 days in a row,  I had phantom pain in November. 

It stopped now that we're in December.

And now you all coming toward me telling me I have to take ANOTHER shot despite the fact that NO VACCINE I ever took go to number 3? Like I am very very fucking sorry but I AIN'T doing this bullshit anymore. 

I ain't pro-vaxx (I am for every vaccine before this one), I ain't anti-vaxx (never have been).

I am for "Obey the law, and the law won't chase you" mentality (Boy did that go well in 2020).

But now you telling me that this bitch is chasing DESPITE me CLEARLY following the rules? Listen. Do what you want, take the third dose and the eighth if you want to but DON'T fucking come at me and tell me I have to take it too.I almost died at 19 because of this

I ain't taking anymore shots until I reach 25. 

Call me a coward, call me egoist but sacrificing myself for the greater good (X to press doubt folks) and becoming just a little statistic on you all future history book DOESN'T interest me.I didn't believe in the vaccine at all, why?

I believe in science. Not the government.

When the government told us we had to take it...I knew where this was going.

I am very sorry to say so, but I do not trust the government at all and never will I think. 

This motherfuckers was the same in may 2020 who said to the face of EVERYONE in FRANCE. "Yeah kill your grandma to help the economy go up again."

Like you all want to forget THAT part of the fucking year SO BAD it is funny. 

Fuck your third dose. 

I ain't taking that shit. 

I didn't go out anyway, and my school didn't make the vaccine pass mandatory. 

Important problems with mask bans, and some problems with some bills opposing them that actually cause the problem they're supposed to fix.

According to this study, the most effective masks were fitted N95s, with three-layered cotton and surgical masks a close second.

Neck fleeces/gaiter masks were considered the worse in performance, as they not only failed to stop respiratory droplets, but also multiplied them by making larger droplets smaller and thus easier to transfer through the air.
