The muzzle industry has exploded in the past 2 years.
From standard paper, to the designer cloth ones and accessories.
Too many people invested in the industry to let it fizzle away. It’s gotta be billions.
Don’t think for a split second that this does not have an influence on covid management.
This alone will keep covid going past it’s shelf life.
Don't know what world you're living in. But in mine cloth was always said to be only marginally effective and was just the only choice given the N95 shortage.
Why are these "public health experts" now letting the truth come out after 2 years of COVID theater?
Over two years ago, the W.H.O. released their study in Oct 2019, which reviewed a dozen studies that all stated that cloth and paper masks provided ineffective protection against infection from respiratory viruses. Fauci knew this in 2020, which is why he correctly stated that people should not be walking around wearing masks.
Fauci realized that without a vaccine, government, that Dr. Fauci, would look useless and impotent. So he decided that government needs to look like it's in control, to appear as if it's got all the answers. In order to look like government was doing something, Fauci ordered mask wearing for the general public.
All they are doing today, with the mask and vax mandates, is to make it appear that we can look to government for the answers to all our problems. Government knows the vaccines do not "shut down the virus." Nothing can shut down this virus, it needs to run its course.
Don't know what world you're living in. But in mine cloth was always said to be only marginally effective and was just the only choice given the N95 shortage.
Even then, N95 masks are not effective unless worn by trained professions under controlled conditions. These paper masks are like a placebo, that make people feel better. As Fauci said in March:
“When you’re in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet, but it’s not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is,” he said, warning of the “unintended consequences.”
“People keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face,” he added
And in June:
“The typical mask you buy in the drug store is not really effective in keeping out the virus, which is small enough to pass through the material. It might, however, provide some slight benefit in keeping out gross droplets if someone coughs or sneezes on you.”
But I ask people, when was the last time someone actually sneezed or coughed directly on any of us? I cannot think of the last time that happened to me.
No kidding. That's why I wear a KN95 instead of a cloth mask.
These are easy to get nowadays. KN95s are easier to get a proper fit versus the stiff pre-molded N95s. Easier to breathe in the KN95. Easier to wear as well, IMO.
It's not rocket science to learn how to properly fit and wear a KN95.
I don't care if people wear their flimsy obligatory masks. The nose is hanging out anyway, and there are gaps on the sides. I don't care if you don't wear a mask at all.
Just don't ban masks, and don't harass me when I choose to wear my N95.
God God... look at all the leftists back peddling now! How utterly unpredictable. A year ago masks were going to save the world and if you even hinted that they were nearly worthless, you were Satan incarnate.

I don't care if you wear a gas mask or full hazmat suit. Why should anyone care? Of course, that's not to say I don't have an opinion, but that doesn't restrict your freedom to wear anything you like. You can also walk around naked as far as I'm concerned. Not my business.

How do professional credentials affect the proper wearing of a mask? I've been using N95s since USA Mask sold them retail. They were going bankrupt competing with China selling to the medical community. Seems American business will not pay a penny a mask more to buy American made.
Too bad the medical community that advised wearing a mask overestimated the intelligence of many Americans. Like the meme says, after seeing how people wear a mask I now understand the birth control failure rate.
