Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74557605 Not all masks are created equal. Full face respirator = 50 Half face respirator = 10 N95 = 1 Surgical mask = .1 Cloth mask = ~ .01 (I’m assuming they are that bad). Moral of the story is that cloth masks are more useless than the useless surgical masks. So why are they forcing us to wear useless masks? It’s theater. Have to disagree on the APF of 1 for an n95 I'm an industrial hygienist An n95 if fit tested has the same APF as a half face elastomeric negative pressure respirator Both ate APF 10 except no one is bothering with size and fit testing |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 77163818 United States08/05/2020 10:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Proper use of face masks is essential because improper use might increase the risk for transmission (39). Thus, education on the proper use and disposal of used face masks, including hand hygiene, is also needed. Quoting: WyatteSmith Reusing masks is far more dangerous than no mask. Fucking tards.. The used masks are dangerous because they are contaminated, and yet masks don't work meaning they don't capture any of the viral particles.  |
| Anonymous Coward User ID: 45402773 United States08/05/2020 10:47 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Face Masks Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78689184 In our systematic review, we identified 10 RCTs that reported estimates of the effectiveness of face masks in reducing laboratory-confirmed influenza virus infections in the community from literature published during 1946–July 27, 2018. In pooled analysis, we found no significant reduction in influenza transmission with the use of face masks (RR 0.78, 95% CI 0.51–1.20; I2 = 30%, p = 0.25) (Figure 2). One study evaluated the use of masks among pilgrims from Australia during the Hajj pilgrimage and reported no major difference in the risk for laboratory-confirmed influenza virus infection in the control or mask group (33). Two studies in university settings assessed the effectiveness of face masks for primary protection by monitoring the incidence of laboratory-confirmed influenza among student hall residents for 5 months (9,10). The overall reduction in ILI or laboratory-confirmed influenza cases in the face mask group was not significant in either studies (9,10). Study designs in the 7 household studies were slightly different: 1 study provided face masks and P2 respirators for household contacts only (34), another study evaluated face mask use as a source control for infected persons only (35), and the remaining studies provided masks for the infected persons as well as their close contacts (11–13,15,17). None of the household studies reported a significant reduction in secondary laboratory-confirmed influenza virus infections in the face mask group (11–13,15,17,34,35). Most studies were underpowered because of limited sample size, and some studies also reported suboptimal adherence in the face mask group. Disposable medical masks (also known as surgical masks) are loose-fitting devices that were designed to be worn by medical personnel to protect accidental contamination of patient wounds, and to protect the wearer against splashes or sprays of bodily fluids (36). There is limited evidence for their effectiveness in preventing influenza virus transmission either when worn by the infected person for source control or when worn by uninfected persons to reduce exposure. Our systematic review found no significant effect of face masks on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza. That’s how I know this is a farce. If this was real the US would be awash in real masks by now, n95s or even reusable 3m half or full face respirators. Instead they are requiring cloth masks which have a fraction of the effectiveness of surgical or nurses masks. China masks too with a warning: Causes Cancer and Reproductive Harm. |

In the section on "Hand Hygiene", there is this: "reported a marginally significant protective effect of a combination of hand hygiene plus face masks worn by all residents" FCK the WEF!

Why do you think that we are having a huge surge in cases? People put their hands on that dam mask twice as often or more as without it....just notice if you will how often the wearer is picking that mask up to replace it over their nose and or mouth as the darn thing slid down... Nothing any funnier looking that a big thick home made mask straddling half way across someone's mouth....going up and down as they talk...slipping down and up and then them grabbing it to put it up over their nose again. Like yeah,,,,,,real protection ....ya think? |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 79229737 08/05/2020 12:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If you see people with facemasks, you are reminded that there is still a problem or pandemic. IF you have no mask people will just go back to normal with no reminders or visual training aids that keeps the pandemic going. Its more of a visual que. Plus it breeds mistrust or criminalization of healthy people. usually cultures like asia that its ok to wear masks, its the sick that wear them. not the other way around. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 70279414 United States08/05/2020 12:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There's only one mask that will stop the virus from contracting you, that's the N95 if fitted properly. All other masks allow the virus to pass in. The masks are basically safe guards for other people. i.e.. if you sneeze, cough or spit when you speak. It will contain the aerosol inside the mask vs spreading it to others, may it be airborne or on surface. All in all, treat it like the flu. Wash your hands, don't touch your face, mouth and eyes. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 75113321 United States08/05/2020 03:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Interesting. I live in a medium-sized city of 380,000 where we’ve had a total of 650-odd cases and just 57 deaths. We’ve had no new deaths for nearly six weeks, and we’ve been getting fewer than five new cases per day. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78629642 Yet the chief medical officer for the local health department has just mandated that masks shall be worn by everyone in indoor spaces regardless of the size of the space. It seems awfully late in the game for making masks mandatory when community spread has been so infrequent, doesn’t it? And especially when the CDC have published evidence that beyond capturing large droplets, masks don’t prevent infection by smaller airborne particles. The reason why now is because your numbers are so low, watch your numbers go up now. one of the reason's for mandatory mask wearing is to spread the virus. Come back here in a couple of weeks and remember this thread and give us a update on your city ...  |
