This is the same group that said we would have like 2 million deaths a month ago and I believe that was with mitigation.
There was also so model the other day that said 300,000 dead bu August. Only it assumed all the states opened up and went 100% back to normal. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk |

Please stop. Your posts are literally PAINFUL to read. This is easy stuff and I am sure you understand this. First, "help prevent" =/= "prevent." You, yourself, have used "gray area" in the past. Hopefully you can grasp this concept. Second, masks offer some protection. The protection is the same BOTH WAYS when it comes to inhaling/exhaling DROPLETS containing the virus. The masks are not a magical one way portal which somehow stops the droplets form getting out but not getting in. When you wear a mask, SOME droplets coming from you just breathing are stopped by the mask. This mitigates the spread of the virus. Hopefully you know that "mitigates" is not the same as "stops." It works the SAME way when you breathe in. The difference comes with eyes. You don't breathe out droplets from your eyes. The mask doesn't cover the eyes. Hence it helps MORE when it comes to protecting people from your breathing and doesn't help ANY when existing droplets can land in your eyes. This is why the masks are more effective at stopping the spread from you to others than protecting you. They still HELP do both. They just help one more than the other. Jesus ****ing Christ, man.

My mask soaked up the nasty particles from those infected people like a champ....sorta. Then I grabbed my mask and spread them all over my face. KILLER DUDE!!! |

Most likely people grab their mask multiple times as they wear it and or take it off and never think twice about washing their hand(s) before touching their face or anything so, yeah, the mask itself when worn properly might help. Til the person wearing it ****s it all up. |

Sorry, to finish my point the article basically stated that is most cases you are just as safe without a mask than with if your goal is to prevent getting the virus. If your goal is to prevent spreading it because you think you have it then that is what most experts are saying is the most effective use for the mask.

On that similar but separate note, if you do not have a DNR order please get one. MY FIL's, Dad who is his 80's and has been battling cancer coded this morning. There wasn't a DNR order so they brought him back but now they fear they did more damage to him doing that. My FIL is a mess because he thought there was one and was going to let him go because he thinks that's what his Dad wanted. |

The entire time, your argument was that people don't use the masks correctly. This can potentially lead to the worst case scenario you described.

By this same logic it is pointless to wear protective equipment when dealing with toxic chemicals because if you don’t wash your hands after removing and then touch your eyes you might go blind.
