I googled “do masks reduce blood oxygen levels”
And every article for the first 6 pages said no.
One article was a study on seniors 75 years on average. They were fine.
One doctor filmed himself wearing 6 face masks and checking his O2 stat, and he was fine.
I feel for you. I wouldn’t want to have to wear a mask 40 hours a week. I only wear one once a week when I go to the grocery store.
Do the sats and see. We send people home on oxygen under 88% that would be not paid for if insurance companies could do away with it. They love not to pay for stuff.
The article has no one to measure the sats. They are lying to you. Put on your mask, give it about 10 min and do a sat on yourself and see for yourself. You will know then if the articles are right.
If your sats are low it is the way to measure if you are or are not getting oxygen into your bloodstream. That is what the insurance company goes by. We have to document those sats. That is what is the rule to decide if you need more oxygen.

There is your problem right there - Google.
You are being lied to by omission as badly, or worse, by Google as by the legacy corporate media. Do you believe them, too?
DeGoogle your life is the big message.
On the subject of masks and O2 saturation, a pulse oximeter is a $20 item now, and every house should have one. Mine is 2 states away at the moment, or I’d try it myself later.
But to try and refute anything political like this on the basis of “Google says” is simply foolish.
