There isn’t a range of covidiots out there saying (fortunately) that washing your hands does nothing. They’re washing their hands, so leaders fortunately have not had to step in. But you continue to refuse to wear a mask to protect others. You’ve said categorically earlier in this thread you don’t care about infecting other people. So the leadership should need to step in if selfish people like you will hide behind “it’s not the rules” so you can continue to endanger others.

Overheal wrote: » Yep. The feared scenario was hoarding and price hiking (which happened anyway, a portion of which was prosecuted) and PPE was even raided from hospitals. Health practictioners were wearing trash bags and there were the huge drives in the maker communities to make face shields as a less bad alternative to nothing. Even in June PPE shortages were still being talked about and by July i was shocked to see stores start offering surgical masks to Joe Public when at one point they were selling for a few dollars apiece.
