wrong......for someone who is sick or ASYMPTOMATIC, they do indeed keep the chance of infecting others lower.

but, hey, why should anyone give two shits about another to simply wear a mask

A healthy 70 year old has very little risk from COVID-19. Everyone in their 70s only has about a 4% chance of fatality, but obviously those with comorbs dominate that.

if u have the virus a mask DOES work to protect others. the right mask may protect u from others if filtered and the virus does not enter thru ur eyes. better to be smart than stupid.

Do what you want no matter what age you are. If you want to stay home do it, if you want to wear a mask do it, if you don't want to wear a mask than don't. Gotta get out of this mindset of telling people what they can or can't do.

Nor surprisingly you got a few down-votes. Don't you think the old folks may have to go to the drug store occasionally - or shop for milk, bread, etc. occasionally.

Wearing a mask is more to protect the other folks. Are you seriously the kind of person that cares nothing at all about the other folks who reside in this state (or planet) ??

Gee whiz, man. Get a MAGA mask or a Trump mask - then you can alienate 40% of the citizenry while doing your part to protect 100% of them.

You will if you want to go in somewhere that requires it.

Quarantine is when you restrict the movement of sick people.

Tyranny is when you restrict the movement of healthy people.

Well, I’m well passed that mark & at risk, but I think I can make my own decisions. Thanks for your unsolicited opinion.

“I saw someone wearing a mask wrong, therefore masks don’t work”

It’s this kind of idiotic logic that gets so old.

Masks work on a population level. They don’t prevent every infection. They likely prevent a small percent of infections, therefore having an effect when looking at the spread of the virus among large populations of millions of people.

Surgeons wear masks in surgery to control respiratory secretions.
Doctors wear N95 masks when treating tuberculosis patients (much more infectious than COVID)

The principle and physics of a mask is well established.

If you don’t want to wear one then don’t. Just stop making yourself look like an idiot by saying they don’t work.
