because lab science is only true in the lab. We've known this for some time...to answer your question - it's obvious and another scientific opinion of another journalist doesn't mean squat. Masks work in controlled conditions, mask mandates don't work.

Mandates don’t work for those who want their FREEDUMB!

In your opinion, do masks work, out there in the real world?

That is, if I put on an N95 for ComicCon, do you think it reduces my odds or level of exposure?

Yes you silly goose, IF you put on a fitted N95 and wear it 100% of the time in the presence of others when INSIDE, then of course, it's almost like a lab experiment. Was that some sort of sciency test you just administered?

In my opinion masks do not work in the real world, they work like rock stars in a lab. Your black and white world quickly diminishes to gray once humans get involved - did you fly during mask mandates? Did you eat at a restaurant with a mask on? Humans don't wear masks very well for very long, especially when not incentivized to do so. Especially so for little child humans.

Do you eat out and did you fly? wondering what your mask compliance score was when doing both. Plenty of things that you can't do while wearing a mask - eating and drinking are kinda important. Do you know anyone who didn't abide by a mask mandate? Once gain, zero contribution to this conversation..blame it on your guy I guess.

Catching Covid would be the least of my worries at ComicCon. I think a properly worn N95 would provide some protection and you could even integrate it as part of your costume.

I’m with you on the “mandates”, unless implemented by a private business and enforced. Some groups of people will rebel against anything an authority figure tries to “mandate” them to do. Subtle suggestions, making people feel like they made the decision for themselves, bribing them with . . . Wait? Sounds like trying to get an infant to eat their vegetables! Lol!

Not a fan of game conventions?

The biggest risk is that my kid would strangle me if we skipped Surf Cup to go play board games.

But I’d totally wear a filtering mask if I were going.

Or...imagine being told the truth about something. Even better yet, admitting that science is an evolving thing. And yes, I know it's a slippery slope. sometimes humans just don't like being told what to do, just ask all of the non seat belt wearers out there.

In regards to masks, I'm seeing another type of long-hauler. Those that are going to be wearing masks (indoors and outdoors) for the long haul. Maybe they have co-conditions and are being extra cautious, but I believe there is a certain population that are going to feel more comfortable with a mask in public into perpetuity. However, rarely do I see someone wearing an N95, usually a cloth or surgical mask, and not uncommon to see it below their nose. Mask wearing seems to be geography dependent even within SD county.

Just depends on if you are a George or a Kelly Anne.

Funny how the news keeps going one way. As in masks and lockdowns don't make a difference.

Do mask mandates work? Bay Area data from June says no.

SFGATE compared Alameda County’s 7-day average case rate from the past two months to rates in neighboring Contra Costa, Santa Clara and San Francisco counties.

What word is it that’s defined by doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results?

Does your son wear a mask while playing soccer? Do you all stay masked at home? Just wondering, because it would seem strange that someone who defends mask wearing so much would allow their kids to play soccer maskless, hang out on the bench with other non-masked kids, then go home and not wear a mask and risk spreading any disease he might have caught while sitting next to a kid that has covid.

Maybe that's like wearing a mask into a restaurant then taking it off when its time to eat???
