Virtue signaling masks do not protect you.

Surgical doctors/nurses wear masks to keep droplets/particles out of open incisions, not to block viruses. They also wear them in a sterile environment, and don't wear the same mask across multiple patients. Pretty sure they don't wear a mask that's been hanging off their rearview mirror or stuffed their pocket for who knows how long, either.

<br>You nailed it. Not to mention the operating room has a complete air change 2-3 times a minute. That's a lot of air movement. And Doctors in surgery are trained to never touch the mask. How may people do you see out there touching their dirty mask with their dirty hands every few seconds. It's comical to me. A high percentage of the population had never even heard of an N95 mask before some genus decided people should wear them for this virus. I would much rather be breathing clean dry air than the moist, germ stuffed mask all day long. But hey it's just my 30 years of selling 3M and many other company's safety products including fresh air breathing systems. I am sure all the talking heads on TV probably know more about it.&nbsp;

Perhaps 3M will release such a statement? They've been in the bus for a very long time, with various mask types!

That would be great but they are probably selling more masks than ever so why would they want to kill the goose that lays the golden egg.

Nobody is saying that masks don't offer protection from certain hazards under certain circumstances. Of course they do. We are saying that the masks don't protect you from the SARS virus, because they don't. Got any more logical fallacies for us? Shirley, you can do better.

I'm still trying to figure out the title of this thread: "Virtue signaling masks do not protect you." What are these "Virtue signaling masks" that do not protect (us)? — I've never even heard of a "Virtue signaling mask"! (I would include an appropriate emoji here, but what's the point, it won't work with the screwed up current state of this forum.)

That probably won't happen. They know exactly what the N95 masks are designed for. Dust particles! Heck the old 3M'ers always called them nuisance masks, or just plain dust masks. It this virus just a nuisance? I can't remember the percentage exactly right now, but in a letter I saw from one of the heads of 3M AAD (automotive aftermarket division) he said something like 85% of N95 masks were going into the automotive field. And all production had been diverted to the health division to cover the new demand. Don't you have to ask yourself why most of the masks weren't going into the medical field all along if they were for protection from a virus? Now anyone who has compared an N95 mask to the cheap, ill fitting flimsy paper masks should be able to see why they are almost useless. We could talk all night about the characteristics of air and how it moves, or how a mask should fit, or fit tests. None of that matters, you could never train all people how to wear a mask properly, and for how long to make this effective. If you really wanted to wear something that could protect you down to .07-.14 microns, you wouldn't like it much if it wasn't positive pressure. The bottom line is Fauci was right back in March of 2020 when he said "we don't need a population wearing masks all day". But then the political machine got to him, and he changed his position. How does one of the leading people on infectious diseases with many years of experience make a statement on TV like that, and then completely go in the opposite direction? He spoke the truth once, and he learned quickly that this was now a different game he was in.

He might be hammered, but he still makes more sense than the F-tards who wear face diapers and have unsafe "vaccines" injected

Life is about choices. Being a judgemental Richard Head is one of them. I don't wear a mask unless I have to, and I am choosing to not get vaccinated. I know a lot of people who are vaccinated, I know a lot of people who wear the mask religiously. I'm not going to judge them because of it though, because I don't want them to judge me by my choices.
