>We’re seeing increased mask wearing, which is great, but we’re also seeing some improper mask wearing. The primary purpose of a mask is to prevent your respiratory droplets from traveling to other people. Those droplets come from your nose and mouth so your mask should cover both of these areas and the perimeter of the mask should maintain tight contact with your face. Remember, one of the ways samples are collected for diagnostic lab tests is by nasal swabs, which means the virus is present in the nasal cavity of infected individuals. An interesting recent study detailed how a pair of hair stylists that had both had symptomatic COVID-19 together interacted with 139 clients. One of the stylists infected members of her family in the home environment. In the salon, all clients and the stylists were wearing masks. Reassuringly, not one of the clients exhibited COVID-19 symptoms and 67 of whom regardless sought out a test were negative for virus.

Safetyism is one of our modern religions, exemplified by the helicopter parent who sanitizes everything, schedules playdates, and never lets their kids have genuine freedom outside. When combined with rampant litigation it leads to a pathological 'CYA' culture where everything is regulated, no one can take risks, and society stagnates. Many systems, like immunity and consciousness, are antifragile and become stronger from challenges. Everyone masking themselves and living in fear will have many perverse side effects, some which may be intentionally desired by the elite in terms of mass demoralization and subjugation.

The second link literally stated that viral particles are likely generated at a higher concentration through an exhale from nose than from the mouth. But the reality is the nose and mouth should both be covered, because they're both a potential entry and exit point for viral particles.

>If I crash my motorcycle, I'm just going to snap my neck or get crush or ripped apart, so why do I even have to wear a helmet?
Squids gonna squid.

I went through CBRN-E training in the military. The instructors told us to take it seriously because we might one day be the target or a chemical attack from a substance that could kill you within moments of coming in contact with it. One instructor said this was why it was so important to practice with MOPP gear enough so that we get don the mask within the recommended 9 seconds and the complete gear to a minimum level within 20 seconds. The next instructor, standing next to her, who had just told us we could be the target of chemical warfare which would kill us effectively instantly if unprotected, literally said, "It's not thaaaat serious, you don't really need to get the mask on in less than 9 seconds. You can just hold your breath."
As if it were more reasonable to risk exposure than just practice putting on the mask enough so you could don it in less than 9 seconds.

That's you. That's everyone who cries about the masks. You literally know the masks are effective in preventing the spread of the disease, but - for whatever reason - you just can't be bothered to take it seriously. I don't know if it's contrarianism or some kind of weird confidence issue where you don't want to be be serious instead of Too Cool for School™, but, like I said - squids gonna squid.

Consider, the elder generation is responsible for the socioeconomic structure we currently find ourselves in, where the majority of households require two incomes and generational wealth is harder and harder to reap. So we reward those same people by granting them some extra years whereby tanking the economy further, and further suppressing those at the bottom for longer and longer while taking from them projected years of their prime lifetime. If the elder folks want to be safe, be safe and stay indoors. They're still collecting their rent payment from the people whose jobs have been frozen, so they can afford to have their groceries delivered and stay home.

Let's assume that:
1)Covid is really dangerous
2)Virus load is important and influences the severity of the disease
3)Mask makes a huge fraction of virus stay inside

my fav manouver is waiting until a lot of people can see me and then i remove it in front of them.

its like they are seeing some shit they didnt think was possible. often i get a few removers joining me and several more lowerers.

do this enough time and its easy to see at least 40% HATE wearing this thing and would happily stop when prompted. likely its much higher.

always be polite and chill when doing anti mask and you can make the people who confront you seem ignorant, unreasonable and childish.

There is a minimal level effectiveness when masks are used over both the nose and mouth. Improperly worn masks have shown almost no effectiveness. It's almost like blocking both primary pathways of viral exit and entry is important, but nah, that must be too simple.

Whilst I support the current narratoives in wearing a mask to reduce droplet spread, the study presented here is such a poor study to justify mask wearing as the two situations (home and work) are not comparable in the slightest to draw any reasonable conclusion. It should have been two homes where one household everyone wore masks and in the other no-one does. It is not surprising that there was transmission in the household as you do far more than just cut/wash someones hair and the duration, interaction, activities are completely different.
