Agreed I really think the problem is at the beginning of this deal the CDC was all over the place with their mask recommendations because they didn't want a toilet paper style run on masks which would have left too few for healthcare workers. So it's first you tell us masks don't work now you're trying to tell us not only they DO work but we HAVE to wear them. It pisses me off as well even though I kinda figured what was going on.
I think really it's just a matter of people with fever need to stay isolated and inside. More data is coming out on this deal and it really appears the risk of asymptomatic transmission is very low:

I'm not so sure that monitoring body temp at entrances to public places isn't a bad idea but that would probably go over about 10 times worse than masks. Lol But that could potentially be a way we could have stuff like a proper football season with fans in the stands.
