The first three links I got were to studies showing that it's likely covid-19 spreads thrpugh the air. Im working so not in a position to dig deeper while on my break with my phone. Sorry

oh yeah I know what you mean it spreads thru air now that doesn't mean it doesn't also spread thru droplets so the masks still help altho not 100%, it'd be a fallacy to argue that since no one said wear a mask and you're 100% safe

It helps like pulling out stops pregnancies. In that they don't.

bad analogy because pulling out does help stop pregnancies, not 100%, but no one said it would. 100% would be not having sex and not getting close to anyone ever. But you do have to do certain things like buy food in a grocery store, so that is where you must wear a mask.

You talk about bad analogies but then use the only analogy that would actually stop the spread. 100% lockdown. LOL

an analogy won't stop the spread chief. Analogies here are for trying to deny it is a real big deal of a virus and not a hoax, but you can't do that either. You were talking masks not 100% lockdown. A 100% lockdown could but we can't do that forever. It would be good to do it now but not without also bailing out the poor and middle class who will be hurt by it, but politicians are owned by the rich and don't want that, they are using this crisis to take more power for themselves.

Yea masks don't work unless you use a n95 a 5% reduction of aersol is laughable. Would you use a condom for pregnancy protection if it was 5%effective?

you're not supposed to only use a mask you're supposed to also social distance but it's just that you have to do certain things like get food at a grocery store or else you'd die of starvation. Can't ever just never eat like you can just never have sex and stay alive. It's just trying to use gotcha arguments that you know are false, makes people look at you like a clown.

Arisols spread 30 feet and can hang in the air for over 30 minutes indoors. Tell me again how 6 feet of distance and a paper mask are going to stop that. Also you are taking my comparisson far to literal but that doesnt make pulling out an effective form of birth control.

stop arguing against what no one is saying

the mask helps just isn't 100% fullproof, it's that simple.
