As I recall, one of the reasons Fauci and Birks were saying no masks at the start was because they said people would not be able to wear them properly and would do more harm than good. They may still be true.I'm going to just throw this out here again because many of you seem to gloss over it.
Wearing a mask at a store or workplace doesn't equal wearing a mask outside of those places. All these people complaining about wearing masks are certainly not wearing them at other gatherings that don't require it. There are many many places that aren't enforcing it and have large gatherings of people inside a small area.
If you have a group of 10 people over I bet you aren't making them wear masks. This notion of numbers are going up so masks don't work is dumbfounding. You could only say this with certainty if you had observed every new covid case and verified that they indeed were in an environment where everyone was wearing masks and seeing as you cannot do that, you have no proof or legitimacy to claim that numbers going up means masks don't work.
I've gone into restaurants where the people in the kitchen aren't wearing them and the person taking the order takes theirs off to talk. That right there completely negates even wearing them. Masks won't be as effective if everyone isn't participating. It's a pretty simple concept to grasp.
I'm sorry if you're "sick of it."
