Most face masks won

It didn't take long for the liberal left to turn a simple mask into a sign of control and submission. According to them, if you don't wear the mask, you are just coldhearted and don't care about others.

There are a lot of "experts" out there that say the masks do nothing to protect you from the Chinese Corona Virus. There are even some "experts" that say the masks can be detrimental to the health of some.

If you want to wear a mask, by all means, wear one, but please don't try to make everyone else comply.

Most masks won't prevent coronavirus infection

Yahoonews.com-It makes sense that those afraid of contracting the virus would want to take preventative measures to keep themselves safe. But, unfortunately, most face masks won't protect you against the virus.

Retailers tell Yahoo Finance they are continuing to see steady demand for items including face masks and hand sanitizer in many of its stores, while manufacturers are working to further increase output to countries around the world.

But simple surgical masks won't prevent wearers from the virus, which has infected thousands across the globe and spread to 38 other countries outside of China including the U.S. If anything, those who are already infected should be wearing masks.

"We know that those types of surgical masks are important to prevent transmission from someone with infection to other people, and that's pretty routine practice for infections that are spread by respiratory droplets like viruses," Dr. Jeffrey D. Klausner, professor of medicine and public health at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, told Yahoo Finance during a January interview.

"However, there is no data to suggest that in people who are not infected that they provide any protection to prevent infection, to prevent exposure in terms of the typical surgical type mask," he added.
