@carer The plain stupid are the people who wear masks and believe that they actually make a difference.
@carer I haven't worn a mask since July, and not even had a hint of a sniffle since then. I will never wear a mask again, no matter what the government mandates.
Surgeons and theatre staff wear masks to prevent respiratory droplets contaminating the surgical area, nothing at all to do with preventing viral transmission. By the way, the eyes are also an entry point for viruses to enter the body, perhaps the neurotic mask wearers should wear goggles when they go shopping?
Masks are theatre to make people feel good, that's why most people are longer wearing one.
