Saw the 2% quoted in an article somewhere but I think this is the study they’re referencing.

Businesses are already able to restrict access to anyone they deem fit (ie airlines). No federal mask mandate necessary for that.

The main model estimates suggested that because of these mandates, 230,000–450,000 cases may have been averted by May 22.”

Did you read the article or just look at the pictures? If that many cases were averted by May 22, imagine what the number is by now.

No, I’m in SW Florida and I’d say that only about half the people I see when I go out in public wear masks. Many states have relaxed mask requirements.

Here is what I think about how the election will affect the furlough.

Biden wins and Democrats take Senate: Stimulus is passed in January, Allegiant starts bringing pilots in March.

Trump wins and Republicans take Senate: they might even pass a stimulus in the lame duck session. Back sooner.

Biden wins and Republicans have the Senate, this is the worst case, no large stimulus. But an airline bail out could still be part of a much smaller package.

Basically I'm guessing by April for all except the too close to call civil unrest/civil war, Joint Chiefs of Staff decides who the president is scenario.
I think this is pretty much spot on. Although its always possible that management chooses not to take the money so our pres can pay himself even more money, i don't think they could actually turn down hundreds of millions of free money like that. Though i wouldn't put it passed them to try...

But when they go into stores, the stores require a mask.

No, they don’t. They have signs asking people to wear masks, but nobody is requiring it or enforcing it.

the store asks you to leave. If you don’t leave then it’s trespassing.

I guess I lost track of the conversation; what is your point?

So how about those furloughed pilots? How about the talk on the investor call about buying more jets? Are the bids coming out today or not?

Correct! However the reason for being asked to leave is bs. you think a mask that cant even prevent the smell of poo coming through it is going to prevent the corona virus particles? are you kidding me?

From what I understand the mask doesn't protect you, it protects others. ie it protects outbound not inbound.
