Michael Osterholm, who was a member of the Biden Transition COVID-19 Advisory Board, gave a second opinion after Dr. Anthony Fauci said last week that doubling up on face masks “likely” provides more protection than wearing just one mask.
"When we talk about double masking, remember what we're really talking about is just trying to prevent the virus from being excreted by me into the air or me inhaling the virus from someone else in the air, and it's both a function of face fit and face filtration," Osterholm said during an interview Sunday on NBC's Meet the Press.
If you add on another mask, you may actually make it tougher for the air to move through the two-cloth area, and then at that point, it causes more air to actually leak around the sides, which actually enhances your ability to get infected," Osterholm said.

Suffocation “security blankets” is what I call them.
Isn’t Dr. Fauci a holdover from the Trump administration?
One mask or two?
For me or for you?
Today it’s okay.
Tomorrow? Can’t say.
On again off again,
Where to begin?
I see every other person wearing a mask—below their nose, rendering any protection useless.
What do coronavirus variants mean for your masks? NBC "News""If you put three or four masks on, it's going to filter better because it's more layers of cloth," said Dr. Scott Segal, chair of anesthesiology at Wake Forest Baptist Health in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
Next week - 8 masks or you're Hitler!
Never mind if you can breathe or not.
Silence, peasant...just stick a plastic bag over your head and be done with it!

I think Fauci is a holdover from the Carter administration.
He’s about as effective at disease control as Jimmuh was at Iran control.
doesn’t matter- CDC has evidently ‘passed a law’ now mandating masks on public transportation, or face federal charges-
It all began one Winter morning when citizens of the United
States tried to follow guidelines from the many folks trying
to edict what they should do.
The cure for COVID-19 came quickly for many folks. One minute
they were going about their normal routine. The next minute
passed out on the floor. Sadly, they couldn’t remove the
number of masks they had on.
On the bright side they never came down with COVID-19.
They never would.
They’d never see their next birthday either.

I’m going to get some of that liquid plexiglass and encase my head in it.
I’m going full-Fauci-tard on this bug! :)

Thanks for the chuckle.
Notice that Dr. Scott Segal is the chair of anesthesiology.
His specialty is knocking people out.
Haha!
Total protection from everything
This probably the most literal example of "doubling down" that I've seen in a while. Why won't they simply acknowledge the obvious: That masks don't actually block viruses?
