Granted, but not my point. My only point was that the title was false and misleading.
I hate masks and laugh at people wearing them alone in their car, alone jogging a mile from the nearest persons, couples who sleep together wearing them when walking alone. A lot of stupidity out there. But the study’s fact was that medical masks can work and cloth masks can’t work.
The title misleads to the concusion that NO masks can work. And that is a lie. N95 masks still work the best when used correctly.
mine was not a criticism of your accurate description of the article title; rather, just an opportunity to put forth (again!) that the way nearly everyone selects, fit tests/applies, wears and maintains their mask renders them ineffective against the virus. But masks do serve a social purpose: by giving still-scared-out-of their-minds-Americans the courage to leave their house and mix with other human beings, masks wearers participate in spreading the virus, thus shortening the x-axis of the infection curve (time). Cheers!
