the mask does absolutely nothing for the people that aren't infected other than give them hope that it does any good. the virus is less than 2 microns and the best the masks will filter is 3 microns. it's better if the person that has the virus wears it than those that don't!!
I'm sorry you feel that way Ed, and it all stems back from the days that I used to question what the translators were saying because I as you, also payed attention to detail. Sorry I have ruined the forum for you and turned it into a war zone!!
