Pretty simple way around this really. All you have to do is declare you have a medical condition that prevents you from wearing a mask, HIPPA laws make it illegal for anyone, including law enforcement, to require you to disclose your specific “medical condition”. There you go, you are welcome.

In Broward County, Florida if your company is found to be in non-compliance with the executive order. The company will be shut down for 24 hours mandatory and $500 fine. If it’s one of the companies employee’s and is found out, the employee will be terminated no if ands or butt’s about it. My company takes this corona virus thing very serious.

Wearing a mask protects our fellow human beings, not ourselves. Period.

So does the mandate to wear masks void the law stating wearing a mask while carrying a concealed weapon is a crime?

REGARDING:
“I think we can all agree the next Democratic Congress will make mask-wearing a law.”

Since it only takes one to disprove “we can all agree,” the claim is disproved. I do not agree. Nor will it be done by Executive Order. The executive branch can not write laws and there are no existing laws which can be interpreted that way. (Remember this and go after me if I am wrong. You know who I am.)

AND
” “science” (which, as we all know, has become politicized) will eventually decide that we must all wear masks indefinitely for the good of public health”

Actually, science has not. “Science” for politics is pseudoscience, wolf-like politics dressed up in sheep’s clothing to fool and lie to the people. A good example is a politician who announces we need fewer tests because tests find what he calls “Kung Flu,” infected and infectious people. THAT is pseudoscience rather than science. Pseudoscience is “my gut tells me,” “people tell me” — especially when the unnamed “people” don’t exist or wear aluminum foil hats

People won’t wear masks as a political statement, but will NOT WEAR masks in close quarters as a political statement because they believe only Democrats wear masks. And they will infect and kill unknown people for their politics.

AND
“anyone who doesn’t wear a mask will be, actually already is, shamed and ridiculed. People will express delight in seeing “those people” die off”

This part is true. People are treated as shameful when they endanger others for politics. (Another 863 dead Americans yesterday, 36,015 new cases and shameless people proudly infecting more.)

Just to clarify on my previous comment: “science” (which, as we all know, has become politicized) will eventually decide that we must all wear masks indefinitely for the good of public health. Mask-wearing will, actually it already has, become a sign of being on the right “team” and anyone who doesn’t wear a mask will be, actually already is, shamed and ridiculed. People will express delight in seeing “those people” die off (keep in mind that this is coming from the same people who claim to be all about love and tolerance) due to their “stupidity” at not wearing a mask. So there will be a lingering political agenda driving mask-wearing well into our future, long after COVID itself ceases to be a tangible threat. I wouldn’t be surprised if the next Democratic President signs an Executive Order declaring mask-wearing to be mandatory for all outdoors activity, and I think we can all agree the next Democratic Congress will make mask-wearing a law. If you doubt this, then just remember what I’m saying a year or two from now.

Just so everyone knows: the mask-wearing will not be temporary. Get used to it. This is going to be what our lives will be like from now on.

Masks are very effective if everyone is wearing them.

Unmasked COVID carrier exposed to masked healthy person = 70% chance of transmission to the healthy masked person.

Masked COVID carrier exposed to non masked healthy person = 5% chance of transmission to the healthy person.

Masked COVID carrier exposed to masked healthy person = 1.5% chance of transmission to the healthy person.

Not wearing a mask because it violates your “rights” is a stupid argument. It’s pure lazy, selfishness to not wear a mask when you can’t appropriately socially distance yourselves. Wear the danged mask. (Folks who can’t wear them for health reasons are not included in this remark). I understand the masks are uncomfortable, but do you have the right to infect me just because you won’t wear a mask? No, you do not. I’m glad Florida is at least going to enforce it for the people who are in business. I hope they will deny service to folks who don’t want to mask up to come into their businesses. That’s about the only way some of you stubborn, deaf, not me, I’m not going to protect myself or others by wearing mask people will get it. Not all of us will survive COVID-19 if we catch it. Some of us are hanging on until there is a vaccine.

Also, the getting sick from breathing your CO2 story has been debunked. Read reputable, medical sources when checking this stuff out. There’s a lot of misinformation out there and social media is bad about perpetuating it. I believe very little of what I see on Facebook and even less of what I read.
