The N95 mask stops DROPLETS and SARS-CoV 2 travels IN droplets. Therefore, it stops SARS-CoV 2. (Where do you think the 95 in "N95" came from?)
@ruzgar9543 Bud, I said that hydroxychloroquine works on other viruses, what's checkmate about it doesn't work on COVID-19? I already addressed that, so either you aren't reading what I'm writing or you're writing before you're thinking. N95 masks stop droplets, ok, but what's the argument arising about it traveling through aerosols? Also, what does that have to do with the healthy wearing masks, which is my point?
HCQ: Because we are talking covid, not other viruses.
Mask: Healthy people wear masks so as to not get infected.
Droplets: N95 masks stop droplets which carry the virus.
Mask: Healthy people wear masks so as to not get infected.
Droplets: N95 masks stop droplets which carry the virus.
For HCQ, if you understood anything about why it was brought up, I am saying it was speculation from Trump's address about it. It has been proven to work on other viruses and he was asking someone else about if they were looking into testing it...I'm not saying it should be used for COVID-19. Let me remind you this topic was about Trump getting COVID-19 not about what works for COVID-19. The fact that you are checkmating me on a side-topic that I'm not addressing shows your attention to this conversation.
For masks, what stops healthy people from getting infected? If the masks stop droplets, from the infected, why do healthy people need to wear them? And if we are assuming that every person should think they're infected, what kind of pessimism are we resorting to? Sure, N95 stops droplets, but even the study I provided states that the average person doesn't fit their mask properly leaving holes big enough for droplets to get out or meaning on readjustment, they're touching the droplets which then can be transmitted to surfaces. There is no reason for a healthy person to wear a mask if they are not infected.

Sorry for the delay, I have a life other than this. Regarding your last absolutely false, incorrect, and dangerous comment "There is no reason for a healthy person to wear a mask if they are not infected." Please go to your State TV channel's own publication here: www.foxnews.com/health/coronavirus-covid-19-highly-contagious-days-symptoms
You need to wear a mask even if you feel healthy because you may already have the disease and NOT KNOW IT.
Also on that point for (what feels like) the 400th time in this thread alone - YOU WEAR A MASK TO PREVENT OTHERS FROM RECEIVING YOUR DROPLETS. It stops SOME of the droplets from leaving your face. It's not 100% but isn't trying to save others worth a little discomfort?
As for your reasoning why you can't wear a mask because of your illness, I don't believe you, but if indeed it's true - why would you then spread your opinion on this to other people who do not suffer from your illness. You make it sound as though there is NO benefit to masks and it turns out that not only is that not true but you are opting out due to an imaginary health problem that other people do not share with you. Think Bigger Than YOU. You are religious, that should be first nature for you.
As for your response above to my first response to you, I will study and respond after I read those articles.
Except for the Trump sarcasm video - Dude/Madam you have to be kidding. There is nothing sarcastic about that. You refuse to acknowledge it indicates your not open minded, you refuse to look and judge for yourself. The evidence is plain as day and not manipulated. Holy Sxxx.
I will back regarding your other stuff later tonight or tomorrow.

Also, your specultion is false, just accept it.

The fact that you are now discriminating against me for a health condition is sad and shows how much character you have. To insult and attack based on no means. Why would I lie about something as silly as that? I got into this research because of my health condition, otherwise I would've been wearing a mask. This is not religious, and I am not religious, not sure where you got that notion.
If we want to assume that everyone has the virus, we must look at the spread asymptomatically, which is so far, invalid and uncomfirmed. "Most of the evidence for asymptomatic spread has been based on observation (a person without symptoms nevertheless sickened others) or elimination (people became ill but could not be connected to anyone with symptoms)." This means by elimination, the results counted are unbacked. As for how it spreads, by bodily fluids, the amount of the infection in each droplet is far less than those infected meaning the risk of infection is much, much lower. On top of that, the CDC among other media giants won't give a straightforward explanation to how asymptomatic people spread COVID-19 after all of their research because they either don't have a clue or don't have decisive evidence.
As to why I would spread this information is because it's the truth. If social distancing and wearing masks worked, why were "peaceful protests" of mass gatherers allowed? On top of that, why would a huge advocator of masks, Nancy Pelosi, walk into a public hair salon, pull down her mask and walk into a salon? I'm not bringing this up to attack others but to point out the hypocrisy. You have to think bigger than this. There is no evidence that suggests that healthy people should wear masks and that is that. This is about which government has their people obey them mindlessly based on the fact that they say "We have the research, we just won't give you easy access to the data, but we'll give you our professional opinions."
Nonetheless, thanks for the response. Not sure your point behind you have a life outside of this or why it's necessary. I'm pretty sure we all have lives outside of this. I also don't find the respect behind attacking me for open-mindedness. I watched the video, it's clipped and he's not encouraging anyone to inject UV or HCQ in their body. He's asking someone about their experiments.
I'll be glad to read your response later but would appreciate if you leave the personal attacks out of it (or at least the parts where you question my civility in all of this). I am not trying to spread misinformation, like you've said before, or act as a rebel like you're suggesting. I am doing this so it's known. I just want people to not be afraid or forced into doing something for the sake of feeling secure.

Sorry to break this to you, but Snopes is a left-leaning organization (you can tell by their donations, recommendations, and management) so they are unreliable in politics. There are such on both sides, but I know that off the top of my head that they still are influenced by politics.

Ok, thank you. Some of these sources are credible. I will admit that my interpretation is not the public consensus. My observation was that this is one of Trump's several moments where he doesn't take something seriously and does his serious-face sarcasm like he usually does. Glad you were able to point this out to me.
