"Face Masks Really Do Matter. The Scientific Evidence Is Growing.
New research suggests that face coverings help reduce the transmission of droplets, though some masks are more protective than others"

"Face masks are emerging as one of the most powerful weapons to fight the new coronavirus, with growing evidence that facial coverings help prevent transmission—even if an infected wearer is in close contact with others.

"Robert Redfield, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said he believes the pandemic could be brought under control over the next four to eight weeks if “we could get everybody to wear a mask right now.” His comments, made in mid-July with the Journal of the American Medical Association, followed an editorial he and others wrote there emphasizing “ample evidence” of asymptomatic spread and highlighting new studies showing how masks help reduce transmission.

"... . An analysis published in July in the BMJ, a medical journal, found that face coverings are now recommended or mandated in 160 countries to reduce coronavirus transmission.

We know that wearing a mask outside health care facilities offers little, if any, protection from infection. Public health authorities define a significant exposure to Covid-19 as face-to-face contact within 6 feet with a patient with symptomatic Covid-19 that is sustained for at least a few minutes (and some say more than 10 minutes or even 30 minutes). The chance of catching Covid-19 from a passing interaction in a public space is therefore minimal. In many cases, the desire for widespread masking is a reflexive reaction to anxiety over the pandemic.

Healthy people do not need to wear masks. That one size fits all approach is absurd! You should only wear a mask if you have underlying conditions or if you live with someone (like I do) who has underlying conditions.

Or ugly people

You are about as delusional as savage1.

There is ZERO credible peer-reviewed science anywhere!

Total bullshit as usual, as the efficiency of masks has been documented by highly respected doctors.

But go ahead and believe the likes of that crazy/wacko lady/"physician" who also believes that witches, demons and goblins overtake us
when we are dreaming and force us to have sex with them.

Wrong.

People being next to each other for - prolonged - periods of time on buses, skytrains, in bars, malls, clubs, sidewalks, clinics, etc, are not "passing interactions".

People don't know if they are infected with C-19. People infected with C-19 may not have any symptoms and spread the disease to others who are not healthy & who die as a result. So they just killed someone else by not acting responsibly, wearing a mask, social distancing, etc.

Secondly there have been cases of healthy people becoming very sick and also cases where they even died. Including both the very young & middle aged people.

Damn, one would think face masks have only been around for 5 months, who knew?

I wonder why there was no prior scientific evidence? Or did that science reach a different conclusion?

You dumb fuck, the virus can be spread asymptomatically. That means a seemingly "HEALTHY" person can spread the virus.

Fucking know-nothing inbreeds.

Don't try to convince them with science. Their scared little brains can't process it. The "Scientific Elite" are perpetrating a hoax to .... sell more masks apparently.
