Dead wrong. The point of masks is not to stop every possible transmission of infection, but to decrease the probability of spread to reduce new cases to less than existing cases. There is a huge difference between the two. This would have worked except for mass peaceful protests.

You left out one point. The mask only works to prevent you from spreading the virus IF you are contagious. Not some made up scenario where everyone is contagious but asymptomatic which we are finding out now is BS.

‘This would have worked except for mass peaceful protests.’

you mean all those peaceful protests in Ecuador, Brazil, Colombia, Greece, Israel, Australia and New Zealand...? the masks didn’t work in all those places because of civil unrest...?

Repeating an assertion that has absolutely no evidence to support it, doesn’t make it true. A lie is still a lie. The protests simply further exposed the lie, though the media and politicians will never admit it.

“Dead wrong”

Yes, correct —YOU ARE DEAD WRONG. You apparently did not read the article. Masks are not effective. Look at the chart in the Financial Times article and tell me that Sweden did not make the right decision! As one of the articles points out masks are, “all psychological, not physiological. .......fear spreads a lot faster than the virus.

You wear your face diaper if you honestly believe it is right. But, kindly don’t ask me to do the same.
