Based on what? Countries that are supposedly “taking it seriously” experiencing recent rising case counts? This assumes a couple of things:
1. That there exists a place on earth where everyone practices perfect mask usage.
2. That said people are using ideal masks. And no, that cotton mask you carry around in your pocket all day and wash once a week doesn’t count.
I think the problem is people are ascribing magical properties to the kind of masks that most people are using, which are generally cheap, not N95, and reused over and over.
