Dr. Anthony Fauci, President Biden’s chief medical adviser on COVID-19, said two face masks are likely more effective than one against the novel coronavirus, despite significant uncertainty on the subject.
"If you have a physical covering with one layer, you put another layer on it just makes common sense that it likely would be more effective," Fauci told NBC News on Monday.
Infectious disease experts from Stanford Health Care, Mayo Clinic and Johns Hopkins University recently told Fox News there is little to no evidence on the issue.

My understanding is that the masks operate as sort of a baffler, keeping the spittle droplets from being able to achieve a velocity that would carry them to other people’s faces. They don’t operate as filters unless you have a N95. One mask will work nearly as well as two as a baffler.

Well I guess not being able to breath at all would indeed be more effective in avoiding inhaling things...
This guy needs to go. If you want people to take this seriously you do nothing but having this guy as a spokesperson.

Fauci issues another decree.
“Wear 5 masks and a clown nose to stop covid!”
To: Governor Dinwiddie
I love it! Anyone know of an online source where I could get one of these? Or anything similar that would piss-off the mask nazis...
To: McGruff
Too bad Fauci’s father didn’t try that with condoms.

If one mask is ineffective would 2 masks be even more ineffective? What a dumb a$$.
