Not me. I can hardly wait until the required mask ordinance ends in my town on May 25.

Because pandemics can't be stopped, but at least slowed down hopefully.

This study is even on the CDC and NIH's website. Why are those idiots not telling people this? Oh cause they would have to admit they have been wrong the entire time.

Not the ENTIRE time. They all claimed cloth masks and medical masks don’t work, long before they claimed masks work. Even Dr Faustus initially declared that masks don’t work to control the spread of flu, before he was given his marching orders to be pro-mask.

Or you could still hate Fauci for what actually happened. Telling us masks weren't necessary early so that those that needed them most could buy up the supply first. I technically still have an open order for N95s from Feb last year.

Make me wonder why these anti-makers think surgeons have been wearing masks for over 100 years.

From the CDC:

The speed of transmission is an important point of difference between the two viruses. Influenza has a shorter median incubation period (the time from infection to appearance of symptoms) and a shorter serial interval (the time between successive cases) than COVID-19 virus. The serial interval for COVID-19 virus is estimated to be 5-6 days, while for influenza virus, the serial interval is 3 days. This means that influenza can spread faster than COVID-19.

Stop spreading fake news!
Actually no, it means the opposite....The longer incubation period of covid means a longer time that they can infect others, not to mention that many with covid are asymptomatic.
