Did you read the part where it says "When used alone, masks can give you a false feeling of protection and can even be a source of infection when not used correctly".

That science still applies to today
So now your claim is we shouldn't bother with masks because some people don't wear them correctly?

p.s. that goes for your N95 as well as they need to be fitted properly

So it's not just N95 masks that work, now surgical masks approved by the FDA work too? Look at those creeping goalposts.


And do we need to go back to those numbers we looked at of pore size, aerosol size, and respiratory droplet size? It's obvious that your refusal to admit masks reduce transmission is based not in facts but in the psychological need to prove yourself right
You have completely lost the plot now. But I'm not surprised

No, the point the CDC was making was if you dont clean your mask daily you could actually be making things worse.
But of course that flew right over your head, like everything else does 😂

And you posted it as part of your crusade against masks because?

Phil, straight up questions, where do you stand on mask wearing? What do you do during your daily routine when it comes to mask wearing? If you do wear one enlighten us on the proper usage, type and the do's and don'ts a true mask wearing expert practices. If you do not, just come clean and tell us you are an anti-masker and I promise, no judgement on my part. Well, at least publicly, I can't promise I won't be laughing and shaking my head. LOL

I wear an N95 mask every day. And I have a photo of my stash to prove it.
I microwave it for 2 minutes every day to destroy the germs

That a boy! You are doing the right thing but you make it seem like you are fighting the mask ordinate when really you follow it to a tee.

Only to those who dont read my posts properly
If you follow the mask guideline why would you discourage anyone from wearing a mask be it cloth or any other type. A covered nose and mouth is better than no covering at all. In your posts you constantly bring up N95s and discourage other types. I agree the N95 is a great mask but the effectiveness of 95% is when it is fitted for a complete seal. I've worn N95s, 2 and 3 layer cloth, medical and have never had an issue and I've been in some very busy places. I'll avoid 1 layer cloth unless I have no choice.

No, because the virus is airborne. Those flimsy masks people wear lets all the air go through.
Might as well wear a sieve on your face while you're at it

If you think the virus gets through 3 layers or a medical mask you are mistaken. If you're IN front of someone sneezing without a mask and your mask is not sealed properly, then yes, regardless of mask the virus can get in. Through the unsealed portion, perhaps through the eyes. This is why if everyone wears the masks the odds of spreading are miniscule. Plus, none of this leaving the nose exposed nonsense.

Phil, tastes differ, but I think this latest sig pic is the least attractive of any you have used. Maybe she'd be more attractive with a mask.

Where did you get the fit testing for them or are you one of the people that tweet mentioned about improper mask use?

Why do you keep repeating the same ridiculous arguments?

Does your N95 mask have a contained breathing system? if not, where do you think the air you are breathing comes from? Or maybe lack of oxygen is an issue.


p.s. FDA testing has properly fitted surgical masks working with a 98% efficiency which is better than your N95. Maybe it's time to change over.

The elastic makes the mask fit very tight. Do your research
