[QUOTE="CutBaitNBlowSh*tUp4ALivin, post: 3533103, member: 2106"] The problem is not whether or not masks themselves work. The problem is if you'll sit in a spot in front of a store for 5 minutes, you'll see 11 out of 12 people grab the mask with the fingers they just used to open the door with. There. Now, IF the virus is on that door handle, it's now on their hands, face, and mask. And IF someone wearing a mask had the virus, it's the American way to be fairly ignorant. Let's say the guy entering before you has the virus. Every breath they exhale is multiplying the amount of virus sitting in that fabric touching his face. So now he pulls it over his nose to go inside, and the super magnified virus is now, what, 300 times more likely to land on that doorknob? It is my opinion that masks only help when people aren't idiots and when everyones hands are constantly wet from sanitizer and when YOU STOP TOUCHING YOUR FACE, MASK, GLASSES, AND CELL PHONE. /rant Ok so that was a rather rambling rant. I'll try to sum it up. The mask gives a false sense of security for people that are completely idiotic about things they touch. In a chunk of the populace, wearing a mask GREATLY increases the chance of them spreading a virus. [/QUOTE]
