My point was, if 10 people are wearing the correct masks, but one person is wearing it incorrectly, then that person can be exposed.
It takes one person to get exposed, and then give it to others when they think they are safe later. Such as back at home.
We have not curbed the spread.
We have been inefficient, ineffective, and the genie is out of the bottle. We missed the moment. Now we have the mess.
If covid had been actually highly lethal, well, we'd be screwed I guess is the point.
It IS killing people. Fortunately it is not Hollywood grade lethal. And we are not in a movie. Zombies are not at the gate.
I'm suspecting, my ordinary routine, of mostly isolated, has done more to protect me, than my mask.
Most wear their mask with marginal enthusiasm.
They might wear it in the store, and remove it when leaving.
Some wear them everywhere. Some only when forced.
I was wearing my mask mainly as a thermal benefit on cold days.
I don't normally worry about efficiently wearing it walking down the street.
The thing is, the virus, doesn't need to play fair. And it couldn't care less about our rights.
You only need to dine in at Burger King once with mask removed while eating to end up catching covid even if decently spaced out.
Once you have it, you have it.
Might not kill you. Might not even bother you. But if you have it, you can pass it along. The next person might not be so lucky.
Some think it's a hoax and they are not even trying to avoid it.
Some are openly uninterested in wearing a mask.
Some are not willing to refrain from gatherings.
It doesn't take many people to spread a virus.
You try your best, and then you meet person that met a person that knows a person that has no interest in cooperating.
And then air filtration is closing the door after the horse has left the barn.
