[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that we need masks. To make people wear masks, a hard shut down, where grocery store is open from 8 am till noon, with nothing else open will make people take it seriously.
Put police of every corner too. Only then will morons start wearing masks. This pandemic so easy to crush, the fact that we refuse to do so due to our own stupidity is telling, Once people can't leave the house for 2 weeks, they will accept masks. But, of course that means having POTUS that will enforce masks in the whole country. So, why talk about things that are impossible?[/quote]

Masks have very limited effectiveness, especially in outdoor spaces. There was a lot of talk about this. They're really meant as a reminder to others to be careful rather than to stop someone from getting the virus. The vast majority of virus transmission is through family units or close working environments or crowded spaces like bars. Because you need a high enough viral dosage over a prolonged period (usually 10-15 minutes).

Someone walking down the street without a mask isn't giving you the virus. [/quote]
