Like wearing a condom, wearing a mask is just common sense

No one should - see - anything - about masks effectiveness from that info & those remarks. Because there's nothing there to see. Except some imaginary stuff in one's fantasy world & a logical fallacy.

BTW your article attributes the recent rise in infections to Thanksgiving gatherings.

It also says:

"...epidemiologist Dr. Abdu Sharkawy said certain factors are contributing to higher COVID-19 cases during the second wave of the pandemic.

"I think we should be very worried," Sharkawy said. "In the first wave, we essentially went into a lockdown mode -- schools were not open, the economy was to a certain extent shut down, and people weren't going to work in person. Those things have changed now."

The doctor said those under the age of 40 have been disproportionately affected by the virus in the second wave.

"I think that's driving the pandemic second wave right now," Sharkawy said. "Now that's spilling over into those parts of our community that are at higher risk long-term care homes, people that are elderly. We're now seeing them admitted to hospital."

He noted that increasing testing capacity and more contact tracing will help health officials understand how much virus is within the community."

Which explains - why - infections have been rising for some time.

It makes no mention of masks not being effective.

"Face mask mandates slowed the spread of COVID-19 in Canada"

"... This column evaluates the impact of mask mandates on the spread of COVID-19 in Canada, using the different timings that masks were mandated across the 34 health districts of the province of Ontario. Mask mandates are associated with a 25% or larger weekly reduction in new COVID-19 cases in July and August, relative to the absence of mandates.

Irrelevant because he's not referring to - or commenting on - what occurred months ago, but what's happening recently, i.e. the recent rise in infections.

But as to months ago:

Judging by all the stores and shopping malls I been to, its close to 99%
Some stores wont even serve you if you have no mask.
I've even seen people wearing mask while driving their cars or walking outside on streets

However people have many interactions with other people not in their personal pod in private. Those count at least as much as people going into stores.

Compliance must be waaay less than 99%.

it is amazing how we can have seat belt, speed limits, red lights, stop signs without infringing on people rights. it is about safety for all not one. i am sure people will speed, go through red lights and do bareback with sp. but somehow the news media have pick up the voice of those far right cases as news during COVID.

I think that the condom comparison is incorrect. I would never put on a condom that allows the clap to penetrate.

1) How would you know you haven't already done so? Do you test each condom before you put it on?

Or at intervals during sex to make sure it hasn't been compromised?

2) Even if i knew the condom could allow HIV to penetrate, i would still wear it as opposed to the only alternative being the less safe option of no condom at all.

An umbrella with a few miniscule holes that allows a few drops to drip through is far better than no umbrella at all. Obviously i'd use that umbrella rather than no protection whatsoever.

It's the logic, reason, evidence and common sense therein that is the "authority".

As opposed to nonsense, covidiocy, retardation, trolling, etc.
