    I think masking up reduces your ability to transmit or get a virus. We use masks in all kinds of areas be it medicine, dentistry, and others. Even during the Spanish Flu period people were masked up. It makes sense to try and block virus transmission. However, if you are leaving your eyes uncovered too, then you are not considering all eventualities.

    i'm glad you brought up the eyes, would a virus also not be small enough to travel through a mask? also if covid 19 was real would it not be better for someone like yourself, who sounds in pretty good health & age to get it & recover from it?

    It seems to be about the amount of the virus. If you get a full splash of pure energetic sneeze, then without a mask, you are absorbing much of that. I think the mask helps, but still particles will get through and if your eyes are slightly above and wide open, then you are still getting hit with it.

    That's a fair question about getting it, so I would argue that recovering from a small amount is probably easier than recovering from a heavy splash. It's like with a hangover, why drink 3 bottles of wine when a glass will suffice? Sure you can build up good tolerance with the heavy drinking, but it probably isn't much fun.

    You never quite know, I may have had it and not known, but I certainly don't make any song or dance about being sicker than ever before like some as I have not been sick. I mentioned being around sick, sneezy people a lot and I haven't got sick, but that doesn't mean I have not been hit with their particles. It is just that my body did not respond to them.

    what sort of people are you guys hanging out with? people coughing & sneezing on you? that rarely happens in my everyday life, my nieces are young & are terrible at covering their mouths when coughing or sneezing but even they never do it on purpose or directly at me. if a virus was in the air it would get through the material of a mask & especially into your eyes. the best way to get over a sickness is by building up an immunity to it. you & i disagree on how we get disease but our experiences along with millions of others, households where one person has a cold but no one else gets it or work places shows that the immune system is the key

    Paul Joseph Watson always showing hypocrisy for what it is. Doctors wasting equipment, pissing about, and cancer patients left dying.
