Well... case and point... masks don't work.
I have been a mask wearer consistently and a hand nazi for many months... tested positive this morning with minor symptoms.

It's about viral load, if anything.

Masks probably work a little but good luck to you. Hopefully a light case. Problem never solved
until vaccine is taken.
Best wishes that it isn’t serious, Mac.

Anecdotal- close relative who went crazy with fear re COVID......
Wore 2 masks all of the time, made kids wear 2 masks, had a filter on vent in closed private office, ripped on ND students hard when they stormed field at Clemson....predicted dire consequences for students and players.
.......well guess who got a positive result with very minimal symptoms the week before?
That’s right.
Meanwhile, how is ND doing?
Karma.
Yes, slowing the Pandemic does not eliminate the spread.

Anybody can get it. Mask wearers are not immune.

anecdotes are not science
And the science is clear.

Never said it was, bit neither are the masks
Take a close look at your post hoc data. Shall wediscuss the main Womens Brigham study with no control arm?
Fear rules the lives of libs. BTW, not one of them wished JoePaPa a Happy Birthday.

They don't care about biden. It's all about the fear and hatred of Trump.
Hysterical, irrational fear.
Masks are not a reflection of fear, tough guy.

I agree not a sign of fear but for a lot of people a sign of overreaction when worn in a car,
with family members in the same household with no sign of Covid and outdoors when a decent distance away from others.
They absolutely can be. And yes I am a tough guy.

Tougher than you will EVER be.
I wear a mask. I think they help. But they are absolutely not failsafe.
It is much more important to wash your hands frequently. Which I also do.
I also wear gloves while out shopping.
I didn't need anyone demanding I do It. I've been doing it since February.
You politicizing the pandemic is childish.
I don't stop going to the dojo. I can still do kata and social distance.
I don't stop going to the range. We all wear masks and sanitize the area after shooting.
You whine about everything.
Some tough guy you are.
I would be little nervous about the dojo with all the sweat flying around during kata and I assume
no sparring there. I take reasonable precautions and I turn my head away if others are going by me if I am running or exercising. I have limited my workouts to running and about 5 sets of pushups and exercise bands in my house. A little boring but I am no longer driving to gym which saves about 45 minutes a day on top of workout time with weights.
I’m not teaching right now.

Couple of other black belts in attendance.
At least 10 feet apart at all times.
Shoes worn, masks, gloves.
We have 125 years combined experience.
Heavy sweating not an issue.
Masks prevent kiai pollution.
No showers, no common towels, no fist bumps , no bag work, no sparring.
No common weapons katas.
It’s all sane. It’s all good.
No political agendas. Just common courtesy.
I work my Iaido katas in a local park.
This is true. When have you seen a positive post about Joe doing anything. Rather, it's all
been negative Trump. Not sure what they are going to do without him next year. Going to be lots of lost souls looking for a replacement for Orange.
Frances will go into hiding
We can only hope

Wish for a speedy recovery. The Pandemic has no political affiliation.

Did the person who infected you have a mask on?
Good luck and get plenty of rest.
That's the thing I have the toughest time understanding, how the hell do you know where you
actually got it?
Sorry to hear that man and I am SHOCKED, SHOCKED I tell you
about the masks. My bosses wife was the same way and tested positive this week. Hope the symptoms don't get any worse for you.
That really sucks. Prayers for a quick recovery.
My physician friend who is in charge of all things COVID at the largest Healthcare network in our area swears that masks are very effective (if both people are wearing them). I just see so many examples though of them not working.
I myself always mask up and wash my hands compulsively.
