Are you saying masks dont help in preventing ingestion of airborne viruses? That sounds like horse shit. Yes you can still get sick by touching contaminated surfaces and then touching your face...

Anytime a mask would prevent you from ingesting an airborne viruses, it becomes a contaminated surface.

So as your clothes and skin except that when you are wearing a mask you dont get sick.

Removing a contaminated mask involves both touching a contaminated surface and touching your face, which you say can still get you sick.
