(Oh, and must be clean shaven to get the seal. )I don't believe the general public is going through all this and are spreading it with there PRETTY LITTLE DESIGNER MASK. I do actually like the design on some of them though, cool to look at but goes no farther than that.

You totally missed the point of the question, but your reply gave me the answer. You are clearly under the impression that the purpose of masks are to protect the wearer.

That is totally wrong. Mask wearing is NOT to protect the person wearing the mask. I repeat ... mask wearing is NOT to protect the person wearing the mask.

The primary purpose of wearing a mask is to protect OTHERS. Any mask, no matter how simple, is very effective at capturing the emissions from the wearer that carry the virus.

Everything you posted refers to protection, not to preventing the spread. You have either totally missed the point or are ignoring the point. You have just repeated oft mention arguments that have no pertinence to the mask purpose whatsoever.
