I appreciate your thorough presentation even though the facts as you present them for some undescribed reason don’t appear to apply to real life as near universal face diaper wearing and anti-social distancing appear to have had little effect on the y-axis of the infection graph although these measures have certainly lengthened the timeline. Cheers!

I would suggest that the mask wearing and social distancing are not nearly so "universal" as one might think. In my area (quite red area), I see many people without masks. Of course, I'm not bugging anyone about it - that's their choice - but the fewer people who are wearing masks and practicing social distancing, the less we can blame the rise in cases on the failure of masks and social distancing.

Case in point, if kids are going to pack the hallways with no masks, we can hardly blame the masks themselves for cases rising:

If people start refusing to wear seat belts and there's a rise in car crash deaths, we can't really claim seat belts are a failure.
