Masks also prevent wearers’ breath from forming micro-droplets whuch can get around the masks of others.
Breathing in a small amount of virus may lead to no disease or a mild infection. But inhaling a large volume of virus particles can result in severe symptoms or death.
So, again -- wear a mask. via @ronlin @mauradolanhttps://www.latimes.com/california/story/2020-07-14/evidence-mounts-that-masks-help-lower-your-exposure-to-the-coronavirus …

Those who say they can't wear a mask - in China 100% compliance or serious consequences.

May be a stupid question, but in all seriousness, I would like to know/hear sensible theories; if covid is so contagious that ppl are standing strong on masks due to passing breath/vapor, then why test so deep w/giant swabs? Wouldn't a cough in a tissue be more than adequate?

Wait a minute. It seems you are suggesting one can be partially infected with this virus? I am not a virologist but that does not sound right

But but the mask doesn’t protect you it protects you from others...or “health policy” changed yet again to force a new narrative onto people?

Do face shields have the same outcomes as masks?

Does this explain why so many front line workers died?

Probably overexposure. The masks are said to reduce the number of particles we inhale, but it doesn’t completely block them. I suppose it works similar to xrays, where overexposure can eventually hurt you
