There are hundreds of hours on this topic across the web from numerous professors and doctors stating this. Prior to COVID19 there was no science or policies among organisations such as WHO that stated that masks were effective against aerosol based viruses - they specifically stated that masks were not helpful en masse. This is for a variety of reasons, including that the virus particles are too small to be stopped by anything less than an N95 grade mask (which few people wear).
The result of wearing masks that are not totally sealed is a false sense of security, but worse than that, they result in bacteria building up and being breathed back in. The breathe is one of the body's main avenues of detoxification - so rebreathing in our own wastes via masks for long periods, unnecessarily is not a good idea and may actually lead to greater transmission of disease.
Hand washing WAS shown to have some benefit to preventing transmission of disease. Masks generally weren't in 95%+ of all studies ever done on the subject.
Social distancing may have some theoretical benefit for airborn viruses, but they can travel many meters in the air so 1.5m is not really enough and the psychological effects of being disconnected from others have their own toll.
Studies showed months ago that the deaths caused by lockdowns due to loss of medical care, mental health problems, increased addictions, spousal/child abuse and poverty are likely to outweigh any risk presented by COVID19. Over 100M people have been forced into poverty due to COVID19 restrictions globally. For the wealthier people on Earth, this goes mostly un-noticed and unfelt.
Everything I have said here can be backed up with studies and sources - but they are easy to find with web searches and I have a lot going on here atm.
this is not actually a good argument because most professionals suck at their jobs... in any field. I like the logic instead of the credentials
so let's say I sneeze into a mask
does the virus go through as if I had no mask at all?
or does it stop some/most of the virus?
isn't "Social distancing" like staying home? there's more than 1.5m
how about alcohol? is it as effective?
yep! no doubt about it
I'm not really making an argument based on 'authority', i'm saying that you can go find numerous published studies on the topic by such people and that many more of them have read them and concur. i just don't have time atm to dig them out.
It depends on the mask. Many masks, the virus will go straight through.
OK, sure - in that case it will probably make a difference to the speed of transmission in society, but at the cost of lower psychological wellbeing. Also, the immune system thrives on challenge - so the more that we remove challenge, the weaker our immune response becomes. This is not a good idea in a world covered in pathogens.
There is no way to stop the spread of an airborn virus in totality at this point - the best that can be done is delay the transmission.
I think hand washing is more effective than drinking a beer ;)
masks that aren't even actually masks
image off google. people use masks without filters. the air doesn't even go through it, it has to travel upwards next to the nose because there is no actual air passage. would the virus go straight through it too? wouldn't the virus get stuck on the mask instead? like coughing on our own hands
+1
btw when I said I can't upvote your posts
I did mean it somewhat
cuz semantics and technicalities are too important but they are missing sometimes which leads to some misinformation
so people who read your post can go on a post saying the opposite and argue but get nowhere really because some semantics and technicalities were missing. so they don't fully understand
like in the vaccine example I gave you
some might be shots, but some are, by definition, a vaccine
things get weird
but I think your replies are next-level
like really really good
