The fact some people need a supercomputer to tell them this is sad. The fact a good chunk of people will look at this and still rationalize some reasoning around this is scary.

    Once Deep Blue beat Gary Kasparov in their first chess match I realized this is all a choreographed simulation. Trump was a 4 year virus.

    Using a single surgical-type mask, made of non-woven material, had 85% effectiveness in blocking particles when worn tightly around the nose and face. Adding a polyurethane mask on top boosted the effectiveness to just 89%.

    Masks don’t work though, right?

    Well that settles it, I’ll wear two because I’m better than those hillbillies.

    Based on that data, wearing 6 masks all the tim makes you impervious to infection. I suggest you try it.

    Describe "particles." What size, what kind?

    Now reason with yourself on why "Any old face covering will do" in terms of government advice.

    Now go to a hospital for a procedure wearing a cloth mask and watch them give you a surgical one instead.

    Lots of questions, very few answers, KobeTroller.

    On the margins they probably do. But wearing them in a grocery store is pointless.

    Guy who wears 3 condoms at the same time chimes in...the rationalization begins...

    People grab them and move them and touch them which is actually worse, which is why statistics also show masks (and lockdowns in general) have been useless this past year. Unfortunately though people have tunnel-vision and human psyche in general forces people to bend reality to try and fit the narrative in their head because they aren’t rational enough to look at data and reassess their perception/reality/beliefs. Would be a fascinating case study if it wasn’t such a train wreck.

    TLDR version is that Leftists are sheep and always have wanted to be herded and coiffed by their leaders.
