I’m amazed to see all the chin-diapers still in use. I coined the acronym PAD to describe the mandated palliative apparel device awhile back. I know COVID is an ugly bug but the mask was a poor attempt to fight it, IMHO.

You misunderstand, Mike:  the purpose of that device was not palliative, it was political…and for that, it worked brilliantly!

Maybe so but I think a lot of people felt safer wearing it, some still do. It may have helped avoid a few infections, who knows? But yes, there certainly is a political aspect.
