Dude.... If it protects me then it protects them.But let me get this through to that thick skull of yours, only if it's a properly rated mask does it work. That is the point. I think you would try to convince a door knob it can only be turned one way. Your pretty close to the drama queen aspect aren't you? You like to THINK you are right but really don't have a clue about certain things in the least and WILL keep on and on and on and on about it. Really sad, I would feel sorry for you and people like you but I don't and want, ever. So keep on spewing out what you think you know, whether you really know it or not. I'm getting a kick out of it, how about you?

I think flu and common cold are down because of the general precautions of dealing with COVID are effective for the prevention of both of them, as well. Another factor is that this past year had more people get the flu vaccination in any year since 2009-2010. Maybe that's a sign we win the Lombardi again this year.

My God, you honestly do not get the concept. Yes, if you were wearing a mask that gave you 95% protection, it would in turn be excellent in protecting others from you. You are correct in that. But, but even a simple cloth mask that is extremely ineffective at keeping out virus particles and does little if anything to protect the wearer is very effective at catching expelled droplets containing the virus thus protecting others.

Once again, the main purpose of wearing a mask is not to protect the wearer, but to protect others from the wearer - regardless of the type of mask worn. Any mask is better than none for that purpose.

If you don't get that then the doorknob analogy appears to be correct in this case.

Just so many things wrong with peoples responses and “reasoning” in this thread. Ace was out of 30’foot poles.

Monoclonal antibodies are certainly a tool in the toolbox that should be used for treatment. However, it's not an alternative for measures designed to prevent getting infected in the first place.

That's why I wear a mask even though I am fully vaccinated. That's why I test on exposure, even though I'm fully vaccinated. That's why I'll get an infusion if I ever do get infected even though I'm fully vaccinated.

Every measure helps, though none are 100% preventative. Each lowers the chance of getting and spreading the infection.

None of this true and studies 100 percent contradict this. There is a 99 to 99.5% survival rate. Age is a huge factor in those dying. The holes in the cloth masks are wjat is it 1000 times larger than the virus.

We are going to have to learn to treat those thst inexplicably become gravely ill and to live with it. Youre not eradicating the virus...better chance at eradicating fauci and the other scientist who supported and helped create it.

BTW had covid in December, got tired for little more than a week and lost my sense of smell.

Your team stinks

Same here. Very healthy and absolutely not paranoid. When I am out and about now I wear a mask not because I am concerned at all about getting sick since I am fully vaccinated. Simply concern for others.
