    Do masks actually stop covid? Or is Biden projecting?
    I wear a mask all the time and in Canada it is mandated pretty much country wide now. So with cases surging in our country, why does Biden think 100 days of wearing a mask will make a difference in America?

    It has done nothing to stop the spread of covid. Nothing can stop it. People are being careful here and still getting it.

    Nothing short of a complete lockdown will reduce the numbers. And the cost of a complete lockdown is also devastating not to mention how it affects people's mental health.

    It is a lose lose situation and covid is winning.

      I’ll let you know in about 5 days... so, I went to my dentist on Monday for a cleaning. Got a call today that the hygienist has Covid and tested positive Tuesday... well, she had 2 masks on and I didn’t have 1 on so we should know very soon.

        If it makes you feel any better, I have a dental assistant friend who tested positive and none of her clients got it from her.

        You reminded me to cancel my appointment though because I don't want to sit at home for 2 weeks without pay if that happens.

          It's like asking if bullet proof vest stops bullets.

          No, but it helps. A lot!

                  That’s good to hear... I’m not worried really. It just cramps my lifestyle more than anything ya know?! All the testing places are backed up in Nevada. It’s way overblown but certainly effects some people more than others, like anything really. I just don’t want to get a family member sick.

                  Yes! Cancel it. They sort of called non-chalant which was funny... “Hi sir, calling to setup follow up appointment. Blah blah blah, by the way sir, you were in her Monday and your hygienist tested positive on Tuesday!”

                    Hasn't helped where I live. Everyone wearing a mask everywhere yet cases skyrocketing.

                        it makes some sense that it would. Not for you, but for others.

                        The current idea is that its transmitted by droplets. The mask blocks some droplets.

                        Its not a magic bullet, you can still get it with a mask, but whatever. It doesn't bother me to wear one.

                        I'm in NJ, everyone wears them because of how bad it was in March. I was riding the packed train back then, with no one wearing a mask. I'm fine.

                          Very well put!
                          If someone is shooting at you a vest would help but isn't perfect.
                          Covid is everywhere, a mask helps but isn't perfect.

                                  It’s just a political statement something a politician can hide behind to say they care wear a mask! Yet we will destroy your small businesses and let everyone go insane

                                    It’s a argument for people to explain the unexplainable if everyone wore a mask we would be cured is flawed logic

                                      Cases in my city surged as soon as the mask bylaw came into effect.

                                      Not saying caused it and maybe it helps a tiny bit. But 100 days of masks won't do anything.

                                        Watch Biden claim victory after they release a vaccine then claim his policy of masks mattered people are dumb plain and simple as that
