Thoughts on Masks and Science

I’m always recommending that masks be considered for all crowded indoor events. I got covid recently and had to cancel a show. If I had worn a mask for a previous two hour indoor gathering it would have been an inconvenience but not as much as an inconvenience of being sick (with covid, flu, a cold) for a week and missing out. Getting a cold might be inevitable but why do it on purpose in situations where the chances are much higher of being infected, like at crowded indoor events. And we are talking about short periods and only occasionally. - Your own Germaphobe - Cousin Corky :-)

Knowing the odds in a world that makes us all gamblers.
I am convinced, that science, even with its inconsistencies, still offers the best odds — as a tool in this life — for making our best choices. The inconsistencies also exist in alternatives — with less guard rails. If am going for an alternative, at least I will give medical science a chance to have my back. Please make sure you are up to date and ready for treatment if it is recommended by your doctor. Again - Science isn’t perfect but it brought us the iPhone, your ability to read sent messages like this as they travel through space and time to you, … and a few other conveniences . - Corky
