Indeed, but according to The Science, COVID virions hitch a ride on water droplets (don't know how that's been determined btw) and water droplets are stopped by the mask.
Then again I must ask, what happens to the virions when the water it hitch a ride on gets absorbed by capillary action in the mask? Does it stay glued on the water, or does it break free anyway?
The hysteria is real, but the only reasonable analysis I've heard is this:
N95 filter the air you breathe in, protecting you but nobody else. At-risk people should be wearing these.
Surgical masks block your droplets when you sneeze or cough, protecting other people but not you. Non-at-risk people should be wearing these.
Gaiter type masks aerosolize your droplets. Nobody should be wearing these.
Of course the media and/or the public are too stupid to understand nuance, so in practice we have 70% of people wearing gaiters and making the problem worse for everyone.
You’re participating in and perpetuating a deception. If you choose to do that, it’s on you, but it goes against my basic principles. Call me a zealot if you want...
N95 + test fit + don/doff procedures + change out at the end of service life would be a minimum for a threshold of "has a reasonable chance at being effective". I'd still want to see tests and studies.
By the time we're at single-ply spandex masks, we may as well have mandated plaid golf pants instead. Would be just as effective, and slightly less silly.
N95 are the only masks that can because they’re designed for viruses. This hokey pokey three ply shit only stops spit not air.
Surgical mask are for preventing surgeons drooling into the patient. People drooling on me in public is not that common. YMMW.
You haven’t been to LA 😂😂 fuckers are nasty
I heard that the particle filtration rating for N95 filter isn't even small enough to function for COVID.

You're not allowed to ask questions of The Science. You've been deducted 25 points from your Social Viability Score
(remember: if your SVS drops below 0, you will be subject to mandatory social re-education)
What is the Karma-to-SVS exchange rate, o Great Leader?

There are plenty of them here on thedonald.win.
I comply with mask wearing because it's just a minor annoyance to me. Somehow that makes me complicit in an impending Commie Takeover.
The nuance that I don't support more intrusive restrictions such as shutting down businesses doesn't seem to matter.
Fuck the zealots on BOTH sides. I'd wish a pox upon them all, but that's kinda redundant now, eh?
Forcing masks is unconstitutional and it shouldn’t be a requirement but just a suggestion
