The Beach, High Surf, Beautiful After Rain Cnouds...and More

 The California coast has had some abnormally high surf over the past few days plus some more rain making for some beautiful clouds and interesting photos.  These were shot on Saturday, December 30th, 2023.  These photos were shot with my Pixel 4 phone and then processed with ON1 Photo Raw 2024.  Shot at Venice Beach.  







An accidental photo of my feet, haha, and the wet sand that had earlier been overrun by the ocean - in many places that the ocean never reaches.  In one spot, even made it to the beach bike path.

Now to the "More" in the title:

About masks and Covid - A Cochrane meta-study that examined 78 previous studies found no statistical difference between those who were mandated to wear masks and those who didn't wear masks.  Another recent study showed those who wore masks increased their chance of getting Covid.  In past posts, I've posted links to the studies.  Just put "Mask" in the search bar on this blog.  

Here are a few files regarding masks:


This is how much a mask blocks the virus from escaping - viral particles are smaller than the smoke particles.  Try this demo yourself - just don't inhale into your lungs.




Finally, the common sense aspect...in addition to the above statistical charts and demo, if masks did work, they would have been mandated long ago and would have wiped out the flu, colds, measles, mumps, chicken pox, pertussis, pneumonia, etc., with no need for vaccines.  No more URI's.  An outbreak of any of those, everyone puts on a mask, outbreak is gone.  If only.  

In addition, if masks worked, no mandates would be necessary.  You put on a mask, why would you care what anyone else did, after all, you are protected, you can't catch anything from anyone.  Also, if only.  And if you can still catch viruses, what's the point of exposing yourself to the many harms masks cause?  The same argument can be made for the vaccines.  

More common sense - if people believe that a mask is effective, they may feel free to go shopping, visit friends & family, and infect them.

Remember the media, Fauci, etc., said if you didn't wear a mask you didn't care about others, you should be fined (and some were), go to jail, etc.?  Yet, if masks worked, why would they say that.  You would be no danger to anyone who wore a mask.  Not even Grandma.  I think the whole reason for all the lies was to fearmonger and turn people against each other and nothing to do with caring or not caring.

If anyone sees something different with the common sense points, please let me know.

And then there are the mask harms - will talk about that next time

Oh, btw, LA County just reinstated a mask mandate in all health care facilities - on the news Dec 30th.  Why are these people dictating health policy when they don't follow the science or the facts?
