Effective at what though? I thought the main point of wearing a mask was that you were less likely to spread your sickness to others, especially if you weren't symptomatic yet.
this is the daftest comment in the thread. congrats.
I know you mean this to be facetious, but most diseases do work like this. Shit incubates, you feel mildly shitty for a bit, it spreads, then you either get better or you die. Ever notice how it takes a few days after encountering someone with the cold/flu before you develop symptoms yourself? Or how people with cancer never know they have cancer until they get themselves properly tested?
Is it so effective that you need to be concerned if other people are wearing a mask? Also, that would be quite a different concern than this submission is hinting at.
The main point to wearing a mask is so you don't cough and spit over everything and everyone. They are meant to mitigate the spread of the virus. It was never going to stop it.
Please. Stop trying to take away my God-given right to sneeze, cough, and spit all over everyone. And don't get me started on those glass "sneeze guards" at the buffet!
great! I guess surgeons and doctors can stop wearing them all together now thank fucking goodness for these studies please share them.
