Masks do slow the spread of the virus. Hell, even Fox News reported it today—wearing a mask reduces spread by 65% or more. I get that masks are uncomfortable, but you know what? Doctors, nurses, hazmat workers, and many others wear them and don’t complain. Be a responsible adult and help contain this thing. Is that too much to ask of you?
From WHO, June 5, 2020:

“At present, there is no direct evidence (from studies on COVID-19 and in healthy people in the community) on the effectiveness of universal masking of healthy people in the community to prevent infection with respiratory viruses, including COVID-19.”
And
“At the present time, the widespread use of masks by healthy people in the community setting is not yet supported by high quality or direct scientific evidence and there are potential benefits and harms to consider...”
Yes.
Wearing a mask to slow the virus is like a chain link fence slowing a dust storm
I wear a mask at work,,,
