Masks are only useful if you have a respiratory infection already and want to limit the risk of spreading, or if you're working in a hospital in direct contact with people who have respiratory illnesses."

I ain't clicking on that hot mess of a hyperlink. What does it say?

[–]Bowiebow 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

lol it's a pretty atrocious link but the content is spot on. It's the British medical journals latest report on asymptotic transmission and it concludes that target test and tracing is far more effective than the assumption that everyone has it and is passing it around

Thank you. That sounds like a reasonable response.

Oh yeah, lets just track everybody and pretend like its for medical reasons, oh yeah, totally worth it.
