That statement made when cases were just beginning verses now makes no difference, it doesn't change the statement or the truthfulness at all.

Two things:

There's no question that there was a paucity of PPE back in March. And he and others were really worried about it. So, he and others downplayed wearing masks to try to prevent non-medical people from hoarding and making the situation worse.

He says it's not perfect protection. It's not.

Someone could do the actual research on particle size and what different masks do, etc.... or just post a video that has nothing to do with Covid.

I wonder what that looks like when using something more similar to respiratory droplets and not smoke?

Frazod, I sent you a rep message.

I saw it. Thanks.

I think that was me or Edave did I also give him some money. $20. The guy had been on here for a decade or so. Or was that a different person?

That wasn't smoke, it was vapor witch is even larger than respiratory droplets.

Sure, a mask will stop some of it. Of course, most people cover their mouths with their hands when they cough or sneeze, too, which would obviously stop the spraying. The video didn't take that into account.

As I've said elsewhere, I (admittedly begrudgingly) wear a mask in places where I am required to do so. I don't like it, but I don't like being engaged in pointless histrionics with annoying strangers more, so I deal with it.

However, I'd much rather just rely on my immune system. That's what it's for.

Masks have changed in 5 months?

No. What changed right after he said that is that we confirmed community spread here, along with confirmation of asymptomatic spread.

So, the recommendation changed based on facts. Science is like that.

It seems especially wicked in the west right now

I’ve been wearing a mask in public since early March and even though I’ve been out in public about 50 times (not including hikes and cycling), I have several in my car because I inadvertently forget that I need to wear a mask in public.

My wife initially bought us some thick cloth masks, which work fine. In June, my mom made and shipped us a ton, including several Chiefs and Royals masks along with some Star Wars cloth masks for me, which I use nearly every time.

That said, I couldn’t care less about wearing a mask.

I have one cloth mask that I keep in the car at all times. It's the only one I've worn. I haven't gone anywhere that I've needed to wear it more than a few minutes at a time. Still, it annoys the shit out of me; primarily because it makes my glasses fog up. Perhaps I should buy one that has a better fit. But I keep putting that off because I keep hoping this shit will end.

Donger says the mask hides his dick breathe so he's all for it

[suzzer99]

Watch this and tell me masks don't make a difference with small breath droplets (which is how we now know the majority of covid spread happens).
