Vaccines are effective at reducing severity of the disease, sure, cold, hard data supports that. Masks though? In confined spaces like airplanes and especially if you did not even screen for basic symptoms like fever beforehand? LOL. Fact is, there is absolutely nothing standing in the way of a symptomatic COVID carrier getting onto a plane and infecting everyone inside. From which we can conclude that the masks are 2020 version of TSA: security theater aimed at pacifying the public and little else.
