DECLARE YOUR FREEDOM FROM MASK MANDATES
The Governor has done his part, and the rest is up to each one of us to take our rights back. One such opportunity is this Monday 24th, when Executive Order No. 2 takes effect, reaffirming parental rights to decide if our children wear a mask to school. The communist allies (FCPS, Arlington, Alexandria, for example) are aligning right now to fight this Executive Order and prevent you from exercising your parental rights. Contact your school immediately and declare your freedom.
STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS: CONTACT YOUR SCHOOL TODAY

Worrying about masks now is kind of like worrying about putting on swimming trunks two hours after your house flooded.

The primary function of masks is to keep other people safe from you, not the other way around. Because there's a lag time between being transmissible and being symptomatic.
And as for keeping yourself safe, even if the mask you're wearing is not 100% effective (which is almost always due to user ignorance or mask material, which is a subset of user ignorance), it can drastically reduce the viral load you take in.
But if you want to believe that pretty much every patient-facing medical professional in America is wearing masks because they're agents of the Fauci conspiracy, well, there's that I guess.
Please love yourself.

I thought this was debunked once and for all last week.
Don't all scientists now agree that cloth masks provide no protection, or such a small amount of protection that they are worthless?
Cloth masks, not N95s

True, if we are working with a patient we mask. Not sure how effective that is.

I don't see how the cost/benefit could possibly lead to not wearing one unless the circumstances were extraordinary.

White House calls federal ruling to toss mask mandate 'a disappointing decision'
A federal judge on Monday voided the Biden administration's transportation mask mandate from the CDC
The White House said the federal court ruling Monday to void the Biden administration’s mask mandate for travelers using public transportation such as trains and airplanes was "obviously a disappointing decision" in light of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommending its order for passengers to wear face coverings be extended.
A federal judge on Monday voided the Biden administration's transportation mask mandate from the CDC, which applies to people as young as 2 years old, and had been set to expire a number of times. The order was recently extended to May 3 before Monday’s ruling.

United says, no more masks
Airlines split on COVID mask policy after federal judge blocks Biden’s mask mandate for travelers: report
The CDC said it was extending its travel mask mandate until May 3
United Airlines on Monday said it would no longer enforce COVID mask mandates for employees and travelers after a federal judge’s move to void the Biden administration’s mask mandate for travelers.
"Effective immediately, masks are no longer required at United on domestic flights, select international flights (dependent upon the arrival country’s mask requirements) or at U.S. airports," the company told FOX Business in a statement."

The only reason I ever wear a mask is to reduce to zero my chances of having an unrequested interaction with anybody who might ask me to wear a mask. Those people are the worst, and to be avoided at all costs.

They're only fun if they rely on morality nobody questions. Otherwise they're risky, edge-lord stuff. Like my post, about masks and why I wear them these days.

The day after Trump got elected, one of my coworkers started a meeting by telling everybody her 9 year old son cried at the election results. Too bad it wasn't satire. Just a parent who indoctrinated their kid into feeling certain feelings, then got their shocked and outraged face on when their kid felt the feelings.

Wait… “Reporters answer your questions about masks”?
They have medical expertise now?
