I have asthma. They sound like they have a bad case of constipation, because they're full of shit.

Yeah I have a coworker who has severe asthma and she has no problems with the mask.

must be nice to take advantage of people's concern for the well-being of others because you're to inconsiderate to care about the well-being of others yourself

This. My dad has asthma and other conditions that make him likely to not survive covid. He damn well wears a mask.

you don't have to say what medical condition you specifically have for not wearing a mask nor is a business legally allowed to ask specifics of said condition. *The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 *

Just send those people away with no help. Theres a viral outbreak going around and it's bad for people with healthy lungs. Your just being nice by informing them and refusing to give them any service for risk of infecting someone that would have a severe reaction or death. After all you may be sick.

They are, however, allowed to deny you service.

The business doesn't have to let you enter the building or allow you to buy things, either.

"feel free to call a lawyer. but do it outside, you can't be in here without a mask."

Yall need to work on getting the thinnest masks and or stabbing holes in them so they barely affect anything and you visually please everyone.

---

if it's so bad, have a friend go in the store for you and get what you need.

i agree with that in principle but current laws aren't suited for this. lawsuits incoming.

I have asthma, too. Wearing a mask is no big deal. If you're not wearing one, you're an asshole.

And if your condition is so bad that it's THAT hard for you to breathe, stay at home and have a family member complete your errands for you.

the ada says you don't need to provide a reason to the establishment. you still need to provide one to your lawyer when you try to make a claim. so, you damn well better have a good one.

not practical. also invest in a face shield. i've seen asthmatics go in and out of businesses with no breathing issues while complying with nanny-state mask mandates.

Just wear a thin mask with holes you added yourself. It wont bother you at all and they can go fly a kite.

Are people with asthma even considered disabled?

What do doctors and nurses with asthma do?

This works. I do it all the time. Black mask as well so the holes are less noticable.

Yes, it is unfortunately disturbingly common that people openly display their contempt for the vulnerable by spurning pandemic counter measures and willfully exposing those people to a virus which may very well kill them. Sad indeed.

The adult children that refuse to wear a mask simply because, "I DON'T WANNA!" are seriously pissing me off.

Having asthma myself, if his symptoms are so easily triggered (wearing a mask), he really shouldn't be leaving the house...

My biggest fear. My little brother is 12 and has asthma. This disease could handicap him forever, or even kill him. I hope not, I've already carried one of my brothers underground, hope it does not happen again. Stay save guys

A) What exactly is not practical?
B) Why do you consider mask mandates a "nanny-state"?

To be frank the American people have shown they need a nanny with childlike behavior.

I love how people still think that those medical exemption cards for masks are a real thing.

I have asthma and smoke a pack of cigarettes a day and masks aren't an issue for me.

---

I have asthma too, though it's pretty mild in my case, doesn't affect me much except when there's smoke in the air. Masks are not a problem. Well, those elastic strap ones are but that's because those fuckers feel like they're trying to cut off your ears, not for any breathing issues. If someone's asthma is bad enough that a mask is a problem for them I imagine they probably need to be taking some pretty serious precautions during this pandemic and won't just be wandering around aimlessly, looking for people to try to talk into letting them do random things

This is why America still has so many cases. People are selfish idiots.

---

I have severe respiratory issues from damaged lungs and airways due to a bad case of getting pneumonia and bronchitis on top of each other years ago.

Caused permanent damage. It took me trying 5 different styles and makes of masks before I found one I could wear for a length of time without feeling like I wasnt getting enough air. Those people just dont even care to try and find one that works; the few who actually have asthma anyway, and aren't just full of shit.

Wear a mask.

Do we get modded for proclaiming we don't wear a mask in public? Is it considered trolling because someone is bound to get angry?
