There is zero data that masks even work

Nice play on words. Upvote for you.

Same with "social distancing."

False: The Fox News article only proves that they willfully or ignorantly misread the MIT study.

The scientist debunks that spin here: https://www.cleveland.com/news/2021/04/debunking-claims-that-mit-study-suggests-6-foot-rule-masks-have-no-value-in-mitigating-covid-19-transmission.html

Let us all assume that Anti-Mask and Anti-Vax are 100% correct and none of it works

Based on that logic Doctors should no longer have to wear masks in surgery or exams of any kind after all they don't work

There are many medical proceedures that do not always work as intended so eliminate them and Insurance providers can save massive bucks

Car Insurance does not eliminate wrecks and drunk driving laws also do not work. Why should people have to obey them,

We are going to assume you have the IQ to grasp where we are going here so we pose this Q to you.

With all the "laws" that exists which which were designed to help create "public safety" Why is a temporary mandate so freaking scary to you that you are literally declaring it's "communism" and your "rights" are being violated

Your "rights" are not being violated in any way

If a Temporary mandate is what you claim? Then every other law that is for public safety is communism and unconstitutional

I suspect this reply was intended for the poster above me. I was arguing that the MIT study does NOT say that masks don't work: that's only how it was reported on Fox News (incorrectly).

I like your argument, but you lump anti-vax and anti-mask together. The mask argument is valid and has been proven valid simply by comparing the airborne virus size to what N95 block against. That and most people are not even wearing N95, just regular surgical mask.

But the anti-vax is completely nonsensical, it is something the far right has created out of misinformation and turning something legit into politics. Two are not the same.

Mask doesn't work, but the vaccine is a different issue.

We lump them together for the simple fact Trumplicans are not actually Anti Mask Or Vax they are simply Anti-Democrat and are willing to risk the lives of others over their tantrum of Trump losing.

Masks don't work 100%, but they do decrease the spread. Swiss cheese courtesy of: https://www.irishtimes.com/life-and-style/health-family/the-swiss-cheese-model-of-covid-19-defence-what-it-means-how-it-works-1.4429716

Yes, meme like this is spot on. N95, which most don't even wear, protects against particles 0.3 micron and larger. The virus is 0.2 micron. So the mask is like using a chain link fence to hold water.
