Originally posted by Technologist Ummm yeah they help. That’s why we were fitted for N95 masks yesterday, and right on time. We had 4 suspected Covid-19 patients yesterday.. They absolutely stop particulate matter.
deploy bed sheets. bedsheets embody the spirits of KKK, which could ward off the perills of the yellow virus.

Also anything face masky will help to some degree.
Yeah it was. You just have poor athletic abilities skills.
And no it wont, if you are healthy. If you don't have an N95, you are not doing shit to keep the virus off you. And unless you are in one of the risk groups (particularly old and/or fat) or working in a hospital, you shouldn't be taking up N95s.
You are probably fat but not old so no, don't go out and buy masks. If you already have them and it helps you feel good then I guess there's no harm. But if it's not an N95, it won't keep out moisture and thus won't keep out coronavirus.
For sick people it helps mildly to reduce the spread because all your coughs aren't 100% releasing your filthy mouth juice into the air with the full momentum of a cough. But even there, it's a pretty marginal benefit because it will be sitting in your mask and getting pushed through and out with every breath anyway. -

No.
And I have several > n95 masks as I had foresight. -

Originally posted by Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country Of course you should get a proper mask.
However can anyone explain how regular surgical masks stop droplets when breathing out, but not when breathing in?
That is some weird science.
It's pretty basic common sense but you just have severe retardation.
Why should people who are sick sneeze into a tissue rather than out into the free air? -

You need to spend $0 on a mask unless you're in a risk group.
And if you are sick, quarantine yourself unless the symptoms are severe enough to warrant wasting a doctor's time or you absolutely can't quarantine yourself.
A mask will only marginally reduce the spread, even N95s for exhalation are just a minor improvement because of air leakage out the sides and above the nose. It's just not as bad as if you coughed openly. -
