It is what they just told me to do. Put it on, go in a store come out,
take it off and repeat for every store I go into.

Evidently you folks don't do as much as I do in a day.

Even wearing it for three hours protects others, if you are a carrier. And, if
you are, the fact that it gets dirty on the inside shouldn't bother you. You're
already sick.

If the mask is not a barrier of any significance, it gets dirty on the
outside too. In fact if you sneezed, it is a claymore mine at that
point.

Ah, very bad premise. The mask *is* a barrier of significance. Look at Luddite's
post from way back.

You simply have a hard time accepting facts.

The mask is like wearing a corona virus ribbon, it signifies that you
"care". Other than that it is useless.

Ah, we have another highly regarded epidemiologist in the group. We should be in awe.

Masks *do* help, in some degree, limit the transmittal of the virus from the wearer to others around them. It's a fact you can't fight, nor should you.

Sneezing into your elbow helps to some degree too. If you have a long
sleeve shirt on, probably exactly the same level. It is the same
filter material and with a minimal amount of care with how you hold it
to your face, the same filtering capacity.

Greg, you were provided with links demonstrating an open sneeze, a
sneeze into your elbow and a sneeze wearing a mask.

If you don't remember the results, take a guess. Which one
contained the sneeze droplets the most?

He won't go there.
