But we have evidence about respiratory viruses and masks, and it all says they don't work. We even have the beginnings of evidence coming through for SARS-CoV-2. They got people who have covid to wear a mask and cough on a petri dish. Covid escaped the masks.

They're less useful against aerosolized stuff like measles, but SARS-CoV-2 is primarily spread via droplet.
