Science only counts when it agrees with the communist agenda.
So would you want a surgeon to operate on you without a mask?
getting too much of this virus can overload ANY adult immune system.
(individual immune systems results will vary/ past performance is not indicative of future results)

It’s because of stuff like this we don’t let Americans in.

Marks are the modern day equivalent to the yellow star Jewish people were forced to wear in 1930s Germany.
It shows the person is subservient to dictatorial government.

I think of them as muzzles. The American people have agreed to being muzzled.
Of course masks work. That’s why health care professionals wear them and not catch the virus. I have three family members who work with covid patients everyday since the start. They wear masks. They are virus-free.
Facts are so old school. Doesn’t matter. CNN/MSNBC....on and on are on the mask bandwagon. I predict the entire month of August mask wearing will be an executive order.
So I did a little research. The particle size of a virus is .0005 to .03 microns.
As a comparison, the particle size of wood smoke fumes is also about .03 microns.
I just went outside and lit a few wooden matches. With a basic cloth surgical style mask, I could clearly smell the smoke, thus proving beyond shadow of doubt that cloth, nylon and fashion masks are 100% useless.
Then I tried it with a N95 mask. Guess what? Yep, I could still smell smoke. It was not as intense but it was still noticeable.
Conclusion: Don’t suck up to the government overlords. Remove your masks.

In the first place, a home-made mask of a scarf or handkerchief is about pointless. Masks - like the n95 - are a sort of general catchall for pathogens in general. The purpose of the mask is to prevent breathing in dangerous pathogens. The n95 is fabricated in such a way as to allow breathing in without allowing too many pathogens to pass the barriers designed into the mask. As for Coronavirus, the viral pathogen is so small that the n95 mask would prove nearly useless; that is why you see those conducting COVID-19 testing wearing a plastic face shield in front of their masks.
People who say that they cannot breathe and so leave the mask loose or only covering their mouth are laughably misguided. Once air freely passes around the edges of the mask all protection is lost. One of the still poorly answered questions about Coronavirus is how dangerous it is as an airborne pathogen, and how long it can survive in droplets suspended in the air.
As to wearing masks over and over - medical professionals DO NOT do that. Once a mask leaves a threatening environment it is discarded. Some masks are rated for a few washings, but that is only if replacement masks are not available. Early on that was an issue, but now that masks are commonly available there should be no need for washing.
The idea of fashionable masks is also laughable; fashionable enough to repel dangerous pathogens? If the mask has no rating as to the aperture of the filtering material then it is basically a waste of time. True, a homemade mask can help block the sneezing or coughing of respiratory pathogens into the air to a great extent; but such a function is NOT the purpose of medical masks. Medical masks are to protect the wearer from breathing in dangerous pathogens. As I said above, the viral pathogen is so small that even the n95 mask cannot guarantee total protection.
For my part I wear a kn95 mask {made in South Korea} mostly to put others at ease. Whenever I visit a Dr's office or medical facility they require me to wear a mask - and I do - even though we both know it is generally pointless. More is accomplished by the temperature scan of the forehead done at the entrance.
Complete baloney.
Science is NEVER conclusive. Ignore anyone who says that; They are either an idiot or they have an agenda.
For reference, look up the definition of the term "Scientific Method." Read and understand.
