This is like non athletes arm chair quarterbacking a game.
Most of you commenting back and forth have absolutely NO fuggin clue about virology and have had NO KNOWN exposure or dealings with COVID.
I have been treating and working with COVID patients before we were even advised COVID was confirmed to be in the USA.
I can assure you I know exactly how to avoid getting it. And argue it all you want MASKS work when worn by EVERYONE in certain situations.
All you have to look at is companies that have required masks and those that have not and the spread of COVID in those facilities.
DO I wear mine outside NO
DO I wear mine when in a large store and there are very few people and I have excellent control over social distancing NO
DO I wear mine when in a jam packed grocery store YES
DO I wear one everyday at work because I have to Yes, but would do it even if it was not mandated because I care about my patients as well as my own health.
Do I have friends over and wear a mask, NO, we are OUTSIDE and stay safely apart.
This whole freaking world needs a strong ass dose of
COMMON SENSE.
