1. Make sure your insult appears in the first four words of your request.

I know I'm not a bot, but just for the record, I wear a mask 100% when I am walking into any store. At home, I don't. At work, where I am currently the only person, I don't. You?

Interestingly, one other employee who hates Trump comes in every so often, and that person does not wear a mask. Maybe this is not just a "bots" problem. You may want to broaden your appeal to people who are not bots.

high-quality or direct scientific evidence". Additionally, WHO advises of 11 negative side effects:

• potential increased risk of self-contamination due to the manipulation of a face mask and subsequently touching
eyes with contaminated hands;(48, 49)
• potential self-contamination that can occur if nonmedical masks are not changed when wet or soiled. This
can create favourable conditions for microorganism to amplify;
• potential headache and/or breathing difficulties, depending on type of mask used;
• potential development of facial skin lesions, irritant dermatitis or worsening acne, when used frequently for
long hours;(50)
• difficulty with communicating clearly;
• potential discomfort;(41, 51)
• a false sense of security, leading to potentially lower adherence to other critical preventive measures such as
physical distancing and hand hygiene;
• poor compliance with mask wearing, in particular by young children;
• waste management issues; improper mask disposal leading to increased litter in public places, risk of
contamination to street cleaners and environment hazard;
• difficulty communicating for deaf persons who rely on lip reading;
• disadvantages for or difficulty wearing them, especially for children, developmentally challenged persons, those
with mental illness, elderly persons with cognitive impairment, those with asthma or chronic respiratory or
breathing problems, those who have had facial trauma or recent oral maxillofacial surgery, and those living in hot
and humid environments.

If you are asymptomatic, you are not doing those things. If you are wise right now, you are not going around shaking hands either. So, the question still stands, what benefit is there of a asymptomatic person of wearing a mask?

nothing for those. That is why the great Dr. Fauci, WHO, NIH, etc... the list goes on has released multiple articles (if only they could pull them back offline now) that state as such.

With all of that said, I still wear a mask on my way into the office and at all stores that request it because it is the respectful thing to do.

I love walking through the grocery store and seeing all of these mask police though in droves that are wearing an N95 acting like they are doing it to protect everyone else. Bunch of idgits.

Masks help prevent people from spreading the virus and offer some protection to the wearer. No one claims that they stop all aerosol drops.

designed for a purpose... each type serves its purpose. I think the uneducated public uses them inappropriately across the board because the frankly don't understand the use cases.

i.e. - N95 are designed to protect you from someone else... they intentionally allow your breath out unfiltered.

surgical masks are designed for an Operating Room setting, without humidity, one time use, etc... we now have idiots out there wearing them for multiple days out in the humid environment, which greatly degrades the impact of them... which is to prevent the wearers germs from entering a surgical cavity and also prevent (to a degree) splatter onto the wearer.

cloth masks - well, there are so many variations of these, i don't even know where to begin. in short, they serve about the same purpose as a surgical mask in that they will catch the large droplets from sneezing, coughing, etc..., but due to the loose fitting nature, are really stopping any of the airborne particles.

I think they are giving most people a false sense of security and in those cases, cause more harm then good because the people won't keep their dirty hands off their faces due to adjusting the stupid mask.

Anyone with an eighth of a brain knows they don’t provide anywhere near perfect protection. This is why there is also a need to avoid large close gatherings and to SD. If we do these 3 things, infections and deaths will be cut substantially. No one that I have heard or read is saying masks alone are the answer.
