Proper hygiene and a healthy immune system will protect you better than a cloth/paper mask. The surgical mask boxes literally used to have a warning that they didn't work against a virus. Don't know if the still do, or not.
Likely still do. Legal disclaimer.
If a person standing in front of me has Covid and shouts or sing or sneezes in front of me I would much rather be wearing my mask and face shield than nothing at all.
It would be great if I had already had Covid and knew I could sail through. I would ditch everything..but I can’t. I can’t even get a Doctor to give me the go ahead for the Vax.
People have to roll the dice, make their decisions..and live or die with them.
