He is absolutely correct.
In every way.

wear a mask because fear?
Well, he's basically saying he's knowingly submitting to do something pretty much useless because the uneducated mob has been whipped into a panic.
... And it's exactly what we're doing.

Been trying to explain this to my fear-obsessed wife (no pics) since this started. Those paper masks are a complete and total joke. They are worthless.

I find it odd that there are more downvotes than upvotes, but almost all the comments support what the doctor says.
Really gets the noggin' jogging.

Not only do they not work, even if they did Covid is passed via droplets. So unless you’re wearing goggles, you can still get it.

Well, not completely worthless.

My doctor has the same opinion.

Because our local Masked Covidians downvote any blasphemy against their One True Religion.

CDC says he is wrong: Understanding Respiratory Protection
An N-95 respirator is one of nine types of disposable particulate respirators.
Particulate respirators are also known as “air-purifying respirators” because they protect by filtering particles out of the air as you breathe. These respirators protect only against particles—not gases or vapors. Since airborne biological agents such as bacteria or viruses are particles, they can be filtered by particulate respirators.
N95, N99 and N100 respirators have an electrostatic charge that, in addition to the mechanical "mesh" filtration properties, traps particles.

My family doctor told me the same exact thing.

Absolutely, people feel better wearing them end of story. Oh, and yea, the government is lying to you!!

Yes. People who remove asbestos know that those masks are inadequate. How much smaller is a virus. Masks are useless. There are masks that you use with air supplied from an outside source but these would be impractical for everyday use.

If you saw all the shite I have to wear to go into a Covid room, you’d quickly realize how insignificant your cloth mask/gaiter is.

We used to shame fear in this country and beat it back with a stick
