I really dislike this all or nothing attitude. It poses so many requirements that people are going to give up on it. It is the same as all the bullshit that flew around in Feb. regarding how you shouldn't be wearing a mask and that you might increase your risk of infection by wearing a mask. Its all bullshit. Yes, you should not be hoarding a supply of n95 masks because these need to go to healthcare workers. But yes you should be wearing something, even a cloth mask if you are going out to a grocery store or anywhere in public with other people around. Is it going to stop it completely? No, but I think we have enough of an idea about the science that the viral load plays into the chances of getting infected.
So why don't we try to do our best and wear masks of any type that we can, and prevent the spread no matter how small? I am just sad people like you have really hurt countries. I know in America we should have been pushing the agenda that we should be wearing masks outside, we should not be hoarding medical masks, we should be washing our hands, and even more importantly we should be taking body temps before entering buildings.
