The studies they've done indicate that in a close environment, a mask reduces probability of your virus' infecting someone from around 17% to around 4%.

If you're sneezing and/or coughing, that is probably a whole other matter.

Sometimes I wonder if low tech masks are efficient germ spreaders. Basically the infected person breathes into/coughs into/sneezes into mask which holds droplets infected with virus. Since the mask doesn’t filter virus sized particles, the mask wearer breathing out is like putting a small fan behind an infected surface, spewing micro droplets into the air. If no mask, larger droplets fall faster rather than float in the air. Similar to what Steve is saying, but for non-N95 masks. If air is getting in, air is also getting out through the mask pushing virus out. Seems like the fancy air diffuser the boss has to make the house smell good, but for virus. No science behind this at all, just musing 😊

the irony of the N95 masks with ports is they have the unfiltered low impedance exhaust port, actually "spreads" the disease more since the air velocity is increased.

Just call your meeting a protest anyway, then you dont need to wear a mask since this doesnt spread at protests

Chuck, are these business meetings with your own employees, or outside people? Can you hold the meetings outside and stay 6 feet from each other? Although being outside probably increases the probability of shouting and, if you have allergies, sneezing.

Imagine being a nurse/doctor/dentist/etc and wearing one of the tight-fitting N95 masks (plus probably goggles) for a 12 hour shift, day after day. The ones that leave marks on your face.

I’ve occasionally seen people wearing clear face shields. Not sure if those are effective and/or allowed instead of masks. Kind of like a personal sneeze guard. Now I’m having a mental picture of the aliens in Mars Attacks with their heads exploding inside their space helmets. Whenever I hear the Kars for Kids song I feel like my head is going to explode.

You can officially count me among the haters of wearing masks. Did it way too much as a kid on the farm when working in dusty environments or with insulation or other items you didn’t want to breathe in. The novelty of wearing a mask wore off long ago……

With almost every thought or opinion there will be someone with the opposite preference or opinion.

However, one particular feeling might be universally held amongst humans.

I am finding I really hate wearing masks during business meetings.

I will do it until the virus is no longer a factor, but I do not like masks.

I do not like to wear a mask over my mouth and nose.

I am sure someone somewhere would say they do, but that would be an odd person.
