I truly do have a severe panic disorder; the reason anything over my face is a trigger (and not the only trigger, sadly) is my Mother was fond of holding pillows over my face until I blacked out. I cannot wear turtlenecks nor scarves, either.
Masks, unless they are N95, do NOT keep a very small virus out of your airway...it's been proven over and over...they do keep people from breathing normally and getting the proper oxygenation...and they also trap in carbon monoxide. Drivers have crashed due to lack of oxygen...I can't understand why this is so hard for people to understand...geez!
Because you really don't know anything about masks, do you? You truly don't.
LMAO long dead; killed at age 74 in a car accident while in a turn lane. Car ran a light. She was in perfect health at the time. Didn't even suffer, unfortunately.
(What a weird q for you to ask, though. Like...very weird.)

This virus is not the smallpox. We never eradicated influenza, despite many decades and $$$ searching for an effective vaccine - the ones we have don't really work.
We never eradicated influenza, and almost certainly won't eradicate this one.
The children (and by extension, adults) of this nation don't get the measles, chickenpox, diptheria, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, HPV, Meningitis, Mumps, Poli, Rotavirus, Rubella, Shingles, Tetanus or Whooping Cough.
Those diseases would claim many lives every year before a vaccine was created. They work great. I wouldn't necessarily jump to the conclusion that there will be no vaccine for it. The thing many people are only focused on right now is the death rate. But we don't know what the last effects of coronavirus are. Many children survived polio... but many were disabled because of it. We might have millions of Americans that wind up with irreparable lung damage or something.
The effects of coronavirus might extend well beyond just the death count.
