Best not take any chances, then, right?
Of course, way less people get sick from masks than die every year from seasonal flu.

Mostly the germs I was breathing out that are already in me and a few maybe a few from outside that I would have inhaled. Of course, it’s better on the mask since viruses and germs generally need a living host and die off on cloth and these paper masks...
But just in case, I also wash my cloth masks and use a UV light to disinfectant the others.

Washing machine should take care of it.
I have a number of cloth masks with filters. Change the filter at least every day, and change the mask at least every couple of days, if not sooner.
Filter is replaced, mask is washed and reused. Not a big deal.

Same here, btw. We have a few masks we rotate through, washing them regularly.

Corporations are way out in front talking to employees in a meaningful way about Covid distancing and diversity issues.
I hope GOP leadership is taking into account that it’s not just the partisan folks and media driving the messaging to its partisan base, but that it has gone mainstream now.
Reistence and relying on old strategies could lead to a shocking election result.

In the case of a home made mask, you launder it with soap and water after every use or after you have worn it until it becomes damp.
I don't believe a study is necessary or why a study could, would or should be an issue for skeptics looking for excuses not to mask in indoor and confined public spaces.

I would imagine that regular people by and large aren't going to have a massive aversion to wearing a mask. If politicians are fooled into thinking that the loony tunes who we see protesting are 'mainstream', they're misreading the climate. Empty vessels making the most noise, and all that....

I'm sure the HR people love, love, love masks.
They can go around giving patronizing talks all day long.
COVID masks were made for HR people.
And they can act really shocked and offended if they catch someone wearing a mask incorrectly.

OldRetired people don't seem to like them as much.Which is kind of ironic, all things considered.

I can't speak to HR people and masks, but where I live I have seen a few off duty nurses and other health care workers take people to task for not wearing their masks correctly in public places. I think it is a good practice, and should be encouraged.
