Remember he also mentioned that during upcoming flu seasons he would probably wear a mask.
He refuses to realize they don't work. People were told they were crazy for pointing out viruses are so small that the mask filtration won't work.
Just last week Fauci in an email said the same thing and said your average mask is ineffective due to the small size of viruses.
But he continues on.
And of course he latest is saying it isn't fair to compare FL to CA.
Just digging for reasons to justify the lockdowns. Sad
The question is not whether the viruses are small. An isolated virus of that size would dry out. The virus hitches a ride on water. This is why people were talking about aerosols and droplets.
This us also why it helps that so many of the masks are cotton. Cotton has lots of hydrophilic bits on the fibers. This is why a cotton mask gets damp as you breathe into it. The hydrophilic parts of the cotton attract some of the aerosols and droplets you breathe out. As the water aerosols get stuck, so do the viruses.
So, if you want to ask whether a cotton masks catches aerosols, ask how
heavy aerosols are, how strong the induced dipole in an aerosol is, how strong the fixed dipole in a cotton fiber is, and what fraction of aerosols will be sucked in by that dipole-dipole attraction. It’s much harder than comparing the size of the virus to the size of the hole. Fortunately, there are people who already did the work on this for you. if you are willing to listen to them. (Hint: they don’t work for Fox News.)
More recently, there is evidence that masks divert airflow up. You breathe out warm air, the mask keeps it from travelling straight forward, and convection takes it up, away from other people. You notice this because it also diverts the warm, moist air up into your glasses.
All of this was explained to you repeatedly. Instead, you parrot whatever you have been told by some right wing fringe site that combs through 2000 emails, finds the ones that can be taken out of context, and misrepresents them.
