......”So many people are erring on the side of caution. That might be the wrong approach. But its not unreasonable”....
That’s about the size of it, really.
The purpose was to not overwhelm the medical/hospital system by slowing the rate of the spread of covid so hosptials culd handle the cases...... I never saw anything that indicated a mask would prevent anyone from getting it. Rather, if you had it you wearing the mask would be helpful from other people catching it ‘from you’.
I opted recently to cloth masks for my own comfort because I have allergies so when I sneeze or cough OTHERS see I’m masked.
Also at stores where required I will accomodate their rules out of respect....it’s their store.
much more comfortable wearing cloth mask........
Little sister works triage at a local teaching hospital & explanation is basically the same as yours now if we could get the dimwits in DC to get on message & stay the fuck on message it would be useful!
I have allergies too. There ain’t no way I’m sneezing with a mask on. None.
