I’ve got to find a way to keep track of these handy facts for future reference. The internet changes fast and old information is sometimes impossible to find again later.
I do remember them announcing that masks (probably the magical, pandemic ending super weapon) would not help keep one safe...
Not so fast. The CDC actually came out and said masks did no good to protect yourself from smoke. (Smoke particles are much, much larger than a covid virus particle, by the way).
I admit I laughed at this. (Especially at the “calm down” portion).
Remember when we were told that women would be much better at leading than the men were? Yeah, turns out they can be just as petty, unserious, vicious, cringey, (pick an adjective) as any man.
