So wear the mask that works. How hard is that?


It’s easier to not wear one at all and laugh at those who do

Do you triple mask?

No, but I’m gonna start deca-masking* to get 100% effectiveness.

*I think deca-masking is the correct way to express x10. If not, please advise.

A 21-year-old pansexual gender studies major with green hair and a hook in her nose, who is currently an intern at Facebook, says this is false.

Thats 10% more than people here suggest. How much do the n95 protect against ?


What if I told you that 100% of those people wearing masks, if on an OSHA jobsite and esposed to the same conditiins the masks create, government regulations would require ventilation for a safe working environment.

I wonder how all you anti maskers would feel if a doctor or nurse did surgery on you without a mask

Or even if you got a teeth cleaning and the hygenist
didn’t wear a mask…

Everyone else is just mocking you. But I understand that this is a teachable moment for you (TBoy, Crimson Fever, Evolved Simian and others). Medical face masks are not worn to protect you during invasive procedures but to protect the medical personnel.

Surgical masks were originally designed to protect medical personnel from accidentally breathing or swallowing in splashes or sprays of bodily fluids

So now maybe you (and the others) will no longer preach about masks, since you didnt understand at all what their design was for. Also, even during invasive proceeds masks are no longer viewed as optimum for protection against splatters. A face shield is the best option

If you have 100 people in a room and you wear your mask you’re saving 10 of them from infection.

Seems worth the slight inconvenience to wear it.

Put the damn mask on people.

And another excellent opportunity for a teachable moment for the great unlearned. From the study
quote:

many cloth and surgical masks only filter about 10 percent of exhaled aerosols. The rest make their way past the mask, most through the top, and spread into the surrounding environment.

Researchers say that Delta is 1,000 times more infectious than the original virus. So lets just use the number 1,000 to correct your poor analogy. The 100 people in the room are confronted with 1,000 Covid19 droplets. Your mask is only capable of filtering out 100 (10%) of those droplets. Guess where the other 900 end up? Getting into the openings of the masks of the 100 people in the room, not 90 as you stated

but ignore the vast majority of studies that show masks are effective.

You just made that up, or saw it on facebook. The FDA just released a study specifically focused on Covid sized droplets, and determined that only an N95 mask (98.4% confidence level) should be worn as protection against thise sized droplet.

The next closest mask was the KN95 at 53.2%. Surgical masks came in 3rd at 38.1%.

But there never has been a VAST MAJORITY of studies that claimed otherwise.

If I can smell my farts through underwear and jeans, a cloth mask ain’t doing anything to stop covid.

Kinda true. Some of it depends on ventilation. Think of a sports bar or casino where smoking is allowed. If you have a good exhaust system then a lot of particles are cycled upward through the ventilation and new clean air is pumped in. Some.smoking bars smell like smoke and even if you don't smoke you reek of it when you leave and some only a hint. The cloth masks are the worst and I'll admit that is the one I use. Considering upgrading after family friend died and another gal I know that is 39 has a bad case, is vaxxed, and OTC test didn't catch it. Only the stringent lab test. No shortness of breath but really high fever and aches from it.
