Back on topic. (masks)

Very stupid meme. The virus doesn't fly around by itself 200 nm diameter. It is suspended in spit and comes out of your pie hole in droplets 5-500 um in diameter. That' is 1000 times bigger than the virus and it is very much big enough to be caught by and reduced in number by a cloth mask.

That said, before I sign off here again, the best protection you have is staying the hell away from other people. Unfortunately people here where I live, where the virus is coming back pretty strong, think that wearing a face mask is going to keep everyone safe, where it would be a lot better if they would just stay the hell home.
