" Sen. Paul ....said "most of the masks you can get over the counter don’t work because the virus particles are too small and go right through them."

These are FACTS proven with CDC,Federal sources cited here many times over the last 18 months.

Even including Dr. Death's "we should wear 2 or more masks..." public comments.

BUT... Can we at least agree that:
Water droplets (aka virus-laden spittle) and airborne virus particles BOTH cause infections?

At the least we can discuss:
Whether Infected Outgoing or Incoming Water droplets that are caught by the wearers mask, still contain the virus and are now sitting on or inside the mask with air flowing past them to others as a serious problem.

Given the commonly worn cheap masks do not filter to the Virus size levels. So let us discuss whether each infected breath is transmitting the virus into the surrounding air. Spreading forever how long the virus lives in typical Office/Store HVAC controlled air space. Which we have been told is anywhere from 1 min to 15+ mins of being airborne.

NOTE: I agree ANY mask filtering at any level of your air flow is better than no mask all. But eyes are also a infection point.

We wear a N-95's and a face shield in public, not the 50 masks for $7.99 cheap paper masks. Neither of us have been VAX'd and we have been out in stores and etc. almost everyday w/o infection for 18 months.
