I guess the CDC description is hard to read? I thought you guys did good with pictures. Do masks save lives or not?
Common question
You are trying to omit information to show a false conclusion. I called you out. Get over it.
<1% of the virions survive in the air , and the timeframe is up for dispute. Similar to influenza
99% of the virions are spread through droplets
Would an n95 that prevents airborne spread work better than a surgical mask? Of course. Which is why n95/PAPRs are standard of care for all aerosolizing procedures. Will a surgical mask prevent the spread of most infectious virions. Also of course. Will a surgical mask prevent 100% of transmissions? Of course not, is someone making this claim?
