    The study is being debunked all over the place. Fouchee did originally say on 60 minutes masks are pointless.

    Who is debunking it?

    All you have to read is the difference between the diameter of the virus body and the thread diameter of medical and non medical facemasks. Been saying that forever. Virus passes right through.

    Cue Price Is Right loser music

    Most masks also have nose gaps and a lot of outgoing air isn't even "filtered" by the cloth. A properly fitted N95 mask would give some protection but you hardly ever see one. The latest (could change in a week) CDC finding is that you need 15 minutes of exposure. So, if you were sitting inside a church or a basketball game you might get that exposure. But wandering around Costco, you aren't going to get the 15 minutes.
    One of my kids works in healthcare and they've been following a "15 minute mask rule" for almost a year.

    Same kid tested positive once and experienced 48 hours of mild cold symptoms before returning to normal.

    I owned a company where we had masks of every level of protection right up to environmental suits with compressed clean air. Masks don't work. The virus is about 1/10 the size of a particle of dust. N95's are tinker toys and were our everyday masks for dry mixed/blended chemistry. Pull them off at the end of the day after working with powdered clay and there is white all the way up your nose and around your nasal cavities. Pull over masks people wear around their necks? 100% useless. Cheap blue surgical masks? Garbage. Face shields? LOL!

    I have yet to see one mask on one person that does not have gaps on the top, bottom and around the nose. Even if the different woven masks were tight around all orifices' the virus is so small it just travels through the masks. Followers like HH believe in the masks, just let him go. He believes whatever his leaders tell him.

    Inslee said that masks didn’t work for the fires last year.

    Hmm lab employees at Wuhan wear space suits but caught it but your cotton fabric magic mask will save you?

    The Chinese released the virus on the world. No doubt about that. It was an act of war.

    Every thing you say is true, and masks don't guarantee or even significantly affect exposures and transmissions. But they can slow down transmissions and reduce viral loads in some situations, so they aren't completely worthless. But the false sense of security and confidence people place in masks was ridiculous, given "the science." And that may have led many people to believe they were safer than they were, especially those condescending mother fuckers who ask "where's your mask?" Reply: "You mean my virus droplet concentration rag?"

    It's as if nobody ever watched how raindrops formed in elementary school. But that's a whole other topic.

    The idea of needing to wear masks while exercising is the one that gets me ... let's do something that restricts air flow and oxygen levels when your body needs oxygen the most.

    If you want me to wear a mask for symbolic reasons for like 5-10 minutes then whatever ...

    You want me to wear one while I'm sitting watching practice at Husky Stadium, I'm not exerting myself so whatever ...

    I can't imagine having to wear one full time while working a full 8-10 hour day

    @TheKobeStopper, @insinceredawg, @HHusky, @EwaDawg, @MelloDawg Can you refute this science? It seems to contradict Dr Fauci.

    Did you hear about the peer-reviewed study done by Stanford University that demonstrates beyond a reasonable doubt that face masks have absolutely zero chance of preventing the spread of Covid-19? No? It was posted on the the National Center for Biotechnological Information government website. The NCBI is a branch of the National Institute for Health, so one would think such a study would be widely reported by mainstream media and embraced by the “science-loving” folks in Big Tech

    I don't think this article means what you think it means.

    Also, scientists don't always agree, which is why the hash it out with studies. Some says masks are helpful, some say they are not.

    Who knows.

    At one point in time in the 20th century, nearly all scientists thought we'd never walk on the moon.

    One thing is certain though. If a dumbfuck like Trump is against masks, and all of his dick suckers here are too... then for now... I'm for masks.
