Your degrees are impressive enough, but are not scientifically based.
Let’s talk physics.
CCP virus particle size is 0.125 microns, or 1/8th of one millionth of a meter. The virus is an aerosol, not merely a fomite or droplet - which masks do help in stopping. See that huge gap between the sides of your nose and your cheeks? Is it smaller than a micron???? Hell no it’s not.
CCP virus is known - and proven - to attach to ACE2receptors in ocular tissues, initially presenting as conjunctivitis. Along with your mask, are you wearing swim goggles? Ignorance or hypocrisy, take your pick.
I’ve used this example frequently, but you Karen’s still don’t get it:
1. Put on your mask of choice - even an N95.
2. Peel an orange.
3. Did you smell the orange? (Yes, you did.)
4. Congratulations, your mask failed to stop an aerosol particle larger than CCP virus.
This is more about virtue signaling submission than actual science. And you, specifically with your ties to China should understand this quite well. My family in Shanghai and Zhenjiang wear theirs daily only because the CCP and WuJing will punish them if they do not.
Stop trying to bring Chinese style submission to America.
Oh - the only respiratory protection allowed in labs handling this virus are supplied air with full face and body protection. That is why so many healthcare workers become infected, as N95s allow viral passage.
Agreed.
It's like being made to wear a dunce cap, on your face, because the teacher had the wrong answer.
I have a mask that would probably stop it. I own an auto body shop and use a respirator when I paint. It has a heavy paper filter then a 1 inch thick activated charcoal filter with a one way neoprene exhaust. I have n95 masks in my shop to use when sanding body filler or using lacquer primers. I don't trust the 95s when spraying catalyzed urethane paint.
You are right about the mask hysteria!
its exactly that
virtue signalling that doesn’t pan out
but people ‘feel good’ doing it, so you must do it
these people are the two angry gay guys in seinfeld screaming “WHO DOES NOT WANT TO WEAR THE RIBBON?!?”
