Well then I guess your mask didn't work. The person that gave me the Covid was not wearing the mask....if they wore one I probably wouldn't have caught it.

Do you think 100% of the air expelled by a sick person passes through the mask? Does the mask magically scrub all the virus out of the expelled air? I am still curious though. Why didn't the mask you were wearing prevent you from becoming infected?

99% of the people don’t wear or use them right so they are overall non-effective. true, that's why the Covid will be around for years to come.

I have wore masks all my life here long before covid.-On my snowmachine when its 40 below-no big deal wearing a mask.
Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Kansas cat, you’re missing the point. Masks are not foolproof. The point of the mask, as I previously stated, is to keep the virus from being projected away from you when breathing, sneezing, talking or coughing. Can the virus get through a mask? Yes. Does the mask disrupt the air current created by your lungs and slow it down, keeping it closer to you? Also yes. That’s the point. Without a mask, you sneeze and infect the guy 15 feet away. With a mask you sneeze and no virus reaches him because the mask blocked the air current from carrying it that far.
If you can’t understand that, then your brain doesn’t work.

Its a virus it aint going away. The vaccine will be maybe as effective as flu vaccine and likely as effective as a common cold or an AIDs vaccine. Quit worrying about it. You will get exposed at some point. Then it may kill you. It is very unlikely though. Chances are you wont even know you are infected. Most people are asymptomatic. Nothing being spouted as "keeping us safe " is.
Couple years it will be like Swine Flu, or SAR's or Zika virus. You won't h ear much about it anymore.
Dont get mouthy when you see me without a mask. It wont end well.
