These demonstrations annoy me. Your body will attempt to maintain ~95% O2-sat. The harder you make it for it the less pleasant it is for you, but it will do it's best. Panting and difficulty will increase but dang that 95% will hover in place.
I've got one of those finger oximeters. I have the same sats whether I am wearing one mask, two masks or no mask without panting, puffing or any difficulty whatsoever. Not everyone might have that same result, but healthy ones will.
Unless you’re hold up in a basement and avoiding humans your entire life, sooner or later you get it. That’s just Playing the odds mask or no mask. . Time to take them damn mind control diapers off when you get your vaccine
Ima wear mine (just one KN95 though) even though vaccinated out of concern for others. I realize that is a hard concept for many who frequent the forum. But people who are not yet vaccinated don't know that I am. So they may be reasonably concerned if I am hanging around the produce aisle. And even so, there is a remote chance I could be carrying around enough virus to infect someone without getting it myself. With other vaccinees, it comes off. Thankfully.

Your lungs expel not only carbon dioxide and other gases, but are also a part of your immune system. They expel fats, and dead tissue, and other things that they don't want rebreathed back in from mask space.
That's why people are getting staph infections, and gum disease, and impetigo from their masks.
I have lung damage - kind of like what you might expect to have to learn to live with even with a mild case of covid. Lots of things are harder - singing, playing the clarinet, exercise, hiking. But wearing two masks, much less one? Not a big deal. At all.
Swell, now there will be even more garbage in the landfills. I pick and choose how much I listen to the CDC and I'm not going to spend money on disposable masks when I spent $2 on a cloth mask that lasted an entire year and will last forever or until this damn pandemic is over.
Masks are "Impossible to push air through". Since when?
I want you to take the flat pleated disposable mask that is sold bundled in bulk (the powder blue or pink or yellow or purple ones with the white string loops connected to their white ultrasonic-welded edges)--and put it directly up to your pursed lips, and attempt to blow air through one.
You won't be able to. And if you're honest you'll accurately post that you won't be able to.
