to no more than 10 MPH. Even a car striking a pedestrian would unlikely be fatal. That would be over a quarter million lives saved in the next decade.

What about all the lives that are lost to obesity and the related complications? What if grocery stores were only allowed to sell fruits, vegetables and white meats? How many thousands of lives would be saved each year? Of course all fast food and most restaurants would ha e to be closed.

I think you are on to something here but are being shortsighted at stopping with just masks.

I’m sure if we work on it we can figuratively encase the world in bubble wrap until not a single life is ever lost.

Utopia!
