Bull****.


So you are saying they don't stop any pathogens. The ones you
encounter pass through 100%.

That's not entirely accurate. Masks are very effective at stopping
droplets and dust. They act as carriers of the virus.



For some reason Greg is having a difficult time grasping this.
The virus is being carried in the droplets of a sneeze, cough
or even talking. How far those droplets can travel is the
issue. A mask helps reduce how far they go.

I've seen computer models of a person sneezing in a simulated
supermarket. The idea that the virus in the droplets only
going a few feet was disproved. Some of the droplets were
going over to the next isle of the market. Another model
showed how far droplets could travel just in normal speech.
In many cases it was more than the recommended six feet.

If all it takes is wearing an inexpensive mask when in contact
with the public to help reduce the spread of this thing, what's
the big deal? Every little bit helps as I see it.



You are assuming I am coughing and sneezing and I am not.
It is like wearing a rubber if you are not having sex and in the case
of these masks. reusing the same rubber over and over if you are ....
even if it has holes in it.

Good grief. Well, fortunately it doesn't appear that the virus
can be spread on the Internet or posting on rec.boats. Yet. :-)

But the droplets and dust are still on the mask, waiting to be
projected across the room with those sneezes everyone seems so afraid
of. Since this is really talking about being in a store, the fact that
you are only spraying counters and merchandise that is a foot or two
in front of you is not that consoling. I understand John carries a bag
and he carefully puts his mask in there but that is not what I see
happening. People pull it off and shove it in their pocket, with their
keys, money or whatever else they carry around. A woman shoving it in
her purse is even more disgusting since everything she owns is in that
purse. You can wash your hands all you like but if your pocket or
purse is infected, you are not accomplishing much.


You sneeze with the mask on, those droplets ain’t goin as far as no mask.


But if they land on the counter in front of you or the apples, celery
or what ever, what difference does it make? You are not only spreading
your germs, you are spreading all the ones you vacuumed up in your
day.

The sneeze only covered the first row of apples, not the whole counter with
a mask.

You folks still keep assuming I am coughing or sneezing. If I was, I
would stay home.
"Asymptomatic" means you are not showing any signs of the illness,
like coughing or sneezing. If you are 6 feet away, you are also not
getting spit on when people talk.
