Yeah and yet heavily masked Europe is still going through a brutal second wave of the virus. I thought masks were supposed to stop the virus magically if we all just wore them 24/7.

Just send in your money. They'll figure it out when they get the check.

Viral-load is like a sperm count. If you have a low sperm count you can still get a woman pregnant but it is a lot harder versus having a normal to high sperm count. Having a low viral-load decreases your odds of getting majorly sick (it can still happen but at lower odds maybe even much lower odds) versus just like going to an indoor gathering who no masks, social distancing, or no concept of personal hygiene and rubbing right next to people who have the virus increases viral-load, therefore, increasing the chance of getting very sick.
Or the virus could get through your mask and be held up against your mouth and nose for hours whereby you are breathing it in more and increasing your viral load.

Where is Science leading, really ? They say follow the science, does it lead to Wuhan ?
The Scientists claim the black holes prove and define and claim togetherness with their theory of General Relativity. So, that is where their Science leads, in their warped view of the Universe,... to a black hole.

To sum up their equation: Black Hole or Death Star=Relativity. I have no desire to be family with that.

Anti-maskers are selfish toads who don't care if another 100,000 people die because of their uneducated stubbornness. I do support freedom -- but not freedom that infringes on other people or endangers other people. That's what the anti-mask toads don't get. Fighting mask orders is unpatriotic because it undermines the health of the nation as a whole.

You don't seem to understand that your and other people rights end at our nose. Government do not get to tell us how to live our life. On the other hand everyone is welcome to wear a mask if that what they chose to do. Just don't try to force it on all of us.

And you need to be within 6 feet of someone who isn't wearing mask? You MUST be within their "viro-sphere" by right or something?

Does anyone need to be within 6 feet of them? I thought 6 feet was the magic distance of 0 infection? Even unmasked, you cannot open distance to be outside their viral threat radius?

A) Why are you responding to your own post?
B) You understand what you just wrote sounds like a crazy person wrote it right?
C) Oh, I get it; you're schizophrenic. Carry on.
