As someone said, even an N-95 mask is about as effective against a virus as a chain link fence is against mosquitoes.
Yeah @00.:21, but she's works there. I notice a number of employees in the stores don't wear mask or hanging under their chin. (Or in this case, not covering the nose)
Every one of those Founders would have been nauseated at the entitled mindset here on FR that people think is "freedom."
SUE Walmart for injuries!
Mask requirements are UNCONSTITUTIONAL! PERIOD! Pandemic or not.
Walmart employee should be FIRED! Any manager who told him to physically restrain customers, SHOULD BE FIRED!
The man should SUE!
You sir, are an IMBECILE. Not an insult it’s a technical term.

I live in NJ. As yet I haven’t gone into a Shop Rites supermarket but smaller stores I have without a mask. I’m going to keep on doing. Aren’t the liberals always screaming “My Body, My choice’’. Well, works both ways.
I was incorrect. Thank you for the correction
Mask are useless which makes me wonder why are mandates to wear a mask taking place.
Do your research please ....
Yes you are correct My post was wrong
Interesting but wrong regrettably
You are correct .... the N-95 mask is also useless at preventing or prevention of contracting Covid. I was wrong
You may be correct.
Buy like it or not - it's Walmart's property. THEY get to decide those sorts of things such as no mask - no enter.
I'm surprised you're not a supporter of property rights in this matter. That's the real issue here.
Haha, I may be an imbecile, but your friend in the video — and everyone else who thinks throwing tantrums and calling people names in angry All Caps makes them special is wrong.
It makes them “Idiots” — people that, we imbeciles can look down at from a considerable height.
exactly how is it wrong?
I wear PPE as part of my job and do understand the different types of masks and respirators, etc. and how they work. Just because something isn’t 100% effective does not mean the inverse is true (100% ineffective).
There are a lot of oversimplifications and broad generalizations being tossed about regarding the debate on this subject including by the so-called experts, people in the media, government and especially in this thread. I’ll try to find the study and data that I eluded to in my previous post.
All straw men that I dealt with in my original post. I said large droplets, and can help decrease the spread of said droplets, which even to the untrained person is obviated by common sense. Multiple layers of cloth will create a filter that can stop or slow down the velocity and thus the distance traveled of large droplets.
I never discussed the idea that cloth masks or n95 masks present some danger to the wearer, especially if not fit correctly or cared for properly (like regular washing of cloth masks, not wearing them for extended periods between washing, discarding them and replacing after a certain number of uses or hours for n95, etc.)
I get real exhausted with all the pseudo-science of experts and so-called doctors or actual doctors that think they know more than every one else because they have a doctorate or a phd...
Me too. Keep fighting the good fight. This may help

I am sure it contributes, that’s my guess, but I have learned that things with this virus are very tricky and it’s a full-time job gathering and analyzing data with medical skills required to make explanations worth something. Otherwise it is just inventing a story you like.
I live in Estonia. Here the super-spreader event was one volleyball game. An Estonian team played a team from Milan, who came with a virus, and what the people dealing with it now think is that what was important was that it was indoors, tightly packed room and the audience yelling (because yelling moves the contaminated air around) and that it gathered audience from all over the country segmenting not on geography, but by interest in volleyball.
“N95 won’t stop it either, the virus is smaller that the filtration”
Not true, the bare virion size is not an issue.
