You're still missing the point, the mask isn't there to filter the virus out, we know thats too hard. Gads, if people complain about breathing through a simple cloth mask I can't imagine how they'd complain if it was actually filtering. The mask slows down your breath, it keeps your spew circle smaller to protect others. Its not 100%, nobody with a brain is claiming its 100%. The point is to reduce transmission. Your circular argument is aggravating. I'm pretty sure you've just made up your mind and lined up your talking points and don't read anything anybody else writes. You certainly don't respond with anything new. Its kind of like arguing with Andrew although you at least respond to the right message.
