I’m an engineer and do not understand how my mask can protect someone else but their mask won’t protect themselves.

Same here, engineering background takes some of the “magic” and “hocus pocus” out of life. Got contact traced here and specifically asked about duration of “close proximity” which was about 5 to 6 feet.

We both had masks so I asked “So you’re saying masks are useless?”
Got dead air on the phone from the nurse. Didn’t matter as this thing got me and a friend in December 2019. We both have antibodies now. Mask Up for what?

Some are desperate and want to do ‘something’. Masks are the perfectly visible statement of doing ‘something’. It’s virtue signalling at it’s best.

I do get a kick out of those who say:
- It’s better than doing nothing.
- Every little bit helps.
