    It was the reason for some guys, for sure. The same crowd who refuse to wear safety glasses under any circumstances were pretty anti-mask.

      Safety glasses actually work, the face rags were security blankets. And I’m not claiming N95s did nothing, i know they helped. literal cloth rags don’t stop fuck all, they can’t even stop dust, ask anyone ever tried that method for shoveling grain.

        They seem to help surgeons, what was the difference?

          Surgeons change them every 20 minutes, and it’s not to help them.

            Then why wear something, if it’s actually the opposite of help, especially during something crucial like surgery?

                Sure, just did. Is having read it again supposed to be a game changer?

                  Maybe you’ve realized why your question was asinine. Doubt it, though.

                    How would it be? Elaborate.
