You are the one calling a mask a petri dish not me. A petri dish is Walmart, Costco, the grocery store, the doctors office etc. Wearing a mask in any of those scenarios is in my opinion not a Bad idea. But I’m not trying to talk you into it. As I have previously stated I think the surgical masks afford some degree of protection.
Protection for the Petri dish. Not the wearer. I personally have no concern with protecting the Petri dish as I am more than capable of staying home when I have the flu/cold and sneezing/coughing so that it does not spread if the need arises.
So, you’re wearing a mask for hours a day, and breathing into it with your moist exhalations. Some people wear the same masks for hours every day. How else would you describe it but as a mobile wearable petri dish?
Nations all over the world are obviously being infected with mass insanity.
