From yesterday: Italian study shows ventilation can cut school COVID cases by 82%
Tinky weirdo.

The problem with "hygiene theater" is that it leaves people confused as to how one typically gets covid, which has nothing to do with touching surfaces by hand.

Fetcher, I kinda agree with some of what you say, in that I think the incessant moralization around masks etc, especially coupled with confused and ever-changing guidelines, has been counterproductive.

Liberals are gonna liberal but it only became a dumb culture war cause dip****s don't actually believe in science. At work I've seen people touch uncooked chicken and not change gloves but if I drop a frozen chicken patty on the floor but still put it in a deep fryer for five minutes they tell me I'm wrong because the floor is gross for reasons.

That's ridiculous. The idea of washing your hands (and not shaking hands) is so that you don't pass it on by touch, ie sweat. Everyone knows it can't survive long on hard surfaces, but it's no harm to wash your hands after handling them anyway. The main thrust of hand washing is, and always has been, person-to-person contact.

As for moralisation about masks: what moralisation? Only those who refused to wear one moralised ("don't take my freedom/ I got an immune system" etc oh yeah, and the best one: "**** your feelings") - those who wanted them to be worn and those who wore them merely pointed out that the action of doing so was protecting people - whether it protected the wearer from others or others from the wearer was, admittedly, changing advice, but either way one side or the other got protection - and refusal to do so was knowingly and deliberately spreading the disease. If you call that moralising. I suppose you're against people being vaccinated too, are you?

The thing that blew Covid up was the weaponisation of it by political parties for their own gain. This never happened with Spanish flu, or Ebola, or Foot and Mouth. Once people started using it as a way of driving public opinion the way they wanted it to go, we were fighting a losing battle as a race.

You realize later variants last longer on surfaces, right? Or do you just get all your news from the Daily Wire?

I had to google what the daily wire is but I like the assumption that I would read Ben Shapiro's website.

It's a good assumption.
