Masks don't save lives, distancing does. When my governor aka dictator ordered me to wear a mask when walking by myself in the woods how many lives did it save? None. Squirrels and other animals are smart enough to keep six feet away from people and humans could master this skill too if they wanted to. But they want to crowd together in airplanes for nonessential travel, etc. Study the size the covid particles and the porousness of masks. Then look at how people actually wear masks, under their noses or tucked under their chins. It's no surprise that by relying on masks we have recurring covid outbreaks.

It is the maskers who need to be honest and face reality, but they can't resist the urge to crowd up against other people. Employer vaccine mandates are coming into play. That and not masks should get us to the end of this.
