Effective at what though? I thought the main point of wearing a mask was that you were less likely to spread your sickness to others, especially if you weren't symptomatic yet.
I'd sure hate to spread a disease so serious I don't even know I have it yet!
this is the daftest comment in the thread. congrats.
I know you mean this to be facetious, but most diseases do work like this. Shit incubates, you feel mildly shitty for a bit, it spreads, then you either get better or you die. Ever notice how it takes a few days after encountering someone with the cold/flu before you develop symptoms yourself? Or how people with cancer never know they have cancer until they get themselves properly tested?
Is it so effective that you need to be concerned if other people are wearing a mask? Also, that would be quite a different concern than this submission is hinting at.
