1. Social distancing effect. Your exhalations have less range when you cover your face, so 4' away from a mask wearer should be better than 4' away unmasked, especially if he's talking. 2. Cyclone fence vs mosquito effect. If it's just the virus, any mask that lets you smell your farts lets the virus through. OTOH, if it's water droplets, if your mask gets wet, it's catching something. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
