    I don’t know if anyone answered you (I got bored and skipped ahead!), but the reason to wear a mask is to greatly reduce the amount of virus you EXHALE (caps for emphasis, not shouting). COVID-19 is spread by airborne droplets exhaled by the affected.

    Here, let me fix that for you.

    make the government look like they are doing something even when it's been proven that wearing non-medical masks are worse than no mask at all.

    Remember folks, the only study done on non-medical masks shows no help for others getting sick, and the wearer has a higher chance of getting sicker. And even though it's been a year of covid-19 there is still no study done to refute that single study.

    We all know what we're told it does. It clearly does not work that way out in the wild.

    It’s pretty obvious to anyone that can think for themselves that masks do not work. If they did, then the numbers would be significantly lower than they are given the number of sheep that wear them.

    Apparently @tarmadilo doesn’t understand aerosols and the lack of containment by cheap non medical masks

    When people think "droplets", they think about the drops you can feel when someone sneezes on you. Droplets in the case of Corona are microscopic, and can stay suspended in the air for several hours. Masks are useless against it. If you can breath a vape, or cigarette smoke through the mask, it will also transmit the Shanghai Shivers. CNN doesn't mention that.

    Not to mention all the gross stuff that grows in the moisture on that mask. Plus whatever's on your fingers when you fondle it constantly.

    I have been wearing the same 10 cent paper mask since March and haven't caught nothin. I figure the black funk that is growing on it is protecting me.

    I've had one of the blue surgical ones since the beginning. My wife saw it finally, and offered to make me one, because it's so filthy.

    I tell ya'll I'm saving a ton of money during all of this. I haven't spent a penny on anything other than food and the odd case of beer the last 10 months. I despise wearing the mask that much lol.
