I have heard this before from a few people and while I haven't tested it myself, I will share this. People recommended staying the duck away from apps like Tinder. Instead look for old and paid apps where both parties have to pay to get on. Especially the ones where they have to put in the effort to describe themselves in words, what they do, where they work etc. They recommended eHarmony.

Again, I haven't tested this myself but wanted to share anyway. Hope you find someone nice!

I don't want you to delete your account. I just want to have a good discussion.

Here's what I have found in the past. Notice the one which states "Penetration of cloth masks by particles was almost 97% and medical masks 44%" and "There is limited evidence for their effectiveness in preventing influenza virus transmission either when worn by the infected person for source control or when worn by uninfected persons to reduce exposure":

The purpose of a facemask, when worn by a patient suspected or confirmed with an illness such as influenza or tuberculosis, is to reduce the amount of large infectious particles released as the patient talks, sneezes, or coughs; this limits their concentration in the room air and reduces the infection risk to others who are present.

However, facemasks by design do not seal tightly to the wearer’s face. Therefore, they allow unfiltered air to easily flow around the sides of the facemask into the breathing zone and respiratory tract of the wearer. In addition, the materials used for facemasks are not regulated for their ability to filter particles and are known to vary greatly between models. This makes it possible for small particles to pass through or around the facemask and be inhaled by the wearer. This is why they are not considered respiratory protection— facemasks do NOT provide the wearer with a reliable level of protection from inhaling smaller particles, including those emitted into the room air by a patient who is exhaling or coughing, or generated during certain medical procedures.

The purpose of a respirator when worn by healthcare personnel, for example a N95 filtering facepiece respirator, is typically to protect the wearer by reducing the concentration of infectious particles in the air inhaled by the wearer. These particles may come from infectious patients who are exhaling, talking, sneezing, or coughing in the rooms in which healthcare personnel are working; from medical procedures performed on infectious patients (e.g., using bone saws or performing bronchoscopies); or from laboratory procedures (e.g., operating centrifuges, blenders, or aspiration equipment) that may aerosolize pathogens.

Respirators are designed and regulated to provide a known level of protection when used within the context of a comprehensive and effective respiratory protection program (see the “Types of Respiratory Protection” section on page 15). For example, filtering facepiece respirators are designed to seal tightly to the face when the proper model and size is selected for the individual by using a fit test procedure. The wearer can then be assured that inhaled air is forced through the filtering material, which allows contaminants to be captured and reduces exposure to both large droplets and small infectious particles.

It is extremely telling that OSHA specifically hasn't weighed in on the face masks. Reason being is because OSHA is an industry standard and therefore carries legal liability for employers. OSHA doesn't want to come out and recommend cloth face masks because they know they don't have a leg to stand on scientifically if someone gets COVID despite wearing a cloth face mask.

CDC also has dropped the recommendation for fit tests at this time due to COVID. So the masks that need to be fit correctly to prevent you from getting COVID are no longer need to fit correctly because of COVID. This is how we are practicing now here in clown world.

Disposable medical masks (also known as surgical masks) are loose-fitting devices that were designed to be worn by medical personnel to protect accidental contamination of patient wounds, and to protect the wearer against splashes or sprays of bodily fluids (36). There is limited evidence for their effectiveness in preventing influenza virus transmission either when worn by the infected person for source control or when worn by uninfected persons to reduce exposure. Our systematic review found no significant effect of face masks on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza.

We did not consider the use of respirators in the community. Respirators are tight-fitting masks that can protect the wearer from fine particles (37) and should provide better protection against influenza virus exposures when properly worn because of higher filtration efficiency. However, respirators, such as N95 and P2 masks, work best when they are fit-tested, and these masks will be in limited supply during the next pandemic. These specialist devices should be reserved for use in healthcare settings or in special subpopulations such as immunocompromised persons in the community, first responders, and those performing other critical community functions, as supplies permit.

Penetration of cloth masks by particles was almost 97% and medical masks 44%. This study is the first RCT of cloth masks, and the results caution against the use of cloth masks. This is an important finding to inform occupational health and safety. Moisture retention, reuse of cloth masks and poor filtration may result in increased risk of infection. Further research is needed to inform the widespread use of cloth masks globally. However, as a precautionary measure, cloth masks should not be recommended for HCWs, particularly in high-risk situations, and guidelines need to be updated.

Also the eyes are an more likely entry point:

Conclusions: Together, these results indicate that ocular surface cells including conjunctiva are susceptible to infection by SARS-CoV-2, and could therefore serve as a portal of entry as well as a reservoir for person-to-person transmission of this virus. This highlights the importance of safety practices including face masks and ocular contact precautions in preventing the spread of COVID-19 disease.

Masks are the new reusable grocery bags -- filled with germs, bacteria and viruses being unwittingly carried around everywhere. And just like your underwear and pants don't prevent your farts from getting out, regular non-N95 masks don't prevent germs either. Though to be fair, if older people "feel" a bit safer, then I guess let them do whatever makes them feel safe. But companies exploiting this to sell masks is fraud and government enforcing this is just abusing power and scare mongering their citizen sheeps.

As soon as the press briefing is over all the media, politicians and even Dr. Fauci takeoff their masks. What looks to be happening is they are only wearing masks for the television...

To be fair, multiple studies from CDC, NIH and OSHA state that non fitted non n95 masks are ineffective and allow 97% passage.

I think they want to destroy the western civilization and push in globalist communism. Remember in a communist society, everyone is poor and no dissenting opinion is allowed while the top people in power are dictators with all the power (China).
