He simply forgets that a person with N95 mask, worn improperly, is still much better protected than someone wearing a bandanna improperly. Even if worn incorrectly, a superior mask remains superior protection.
It is hard to not wear a mask improperly. It covers a mouth and nose. It fits on a face. Who, other than a 4 years old, cannot figure that out? Quote:
Eventually 60% to 70% of us must be infected to end this. If that takes many more months, then less doctors and nurses will die. Currently somewhere between 5% and 15% of us have been infected. In NYC, that number may be 35%. Techniques (such as masks or bandanna) only reduce a number of infected people at any one time. We wear masks to not infect others. It does much less to protect ourselves. Last edited by tw; 05-03-2020 at 12:02 AM. |

This is true, but in both cases it's better than not.
