There's nothing speculative about it to people in the US, especially those who live in Texas or who (like me) have friends or family in Texas.

Hospital staff have contracted this disease and died from it while caring for patient suffering from it.

But anyway, here's a recent study showing non-medical masks to be nearly 100% ineffective at stopping viruses, and medical masks used in a hospital setting are only around 50% effective at best.

Instead, you came up with something dopey about things being "hunky dory" in Texas. Classic example of your inability to deploy even the most basic logic.
However, the right to choose comes with the responsibility of accepting the outcome of one's choice.
That's not the point --- you seemed to question whether it really was true, and OF COURSE they realized that "accepting the outcome of one's choice", because they thought it important enough to quit or be fire.
Is it?
The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

I shouldn't be flippant but for some remarks here it almost obligatory.
