I think we should introduce a law that surgeons should stop operating on people with masks on if said person thinks masks don't stop the spread of infected droplets.

After-all there is probably a way to cherry-pick an argument that surgeon without a mask is more accurate therefore safer.

Wearing mask is not a big inconvenience, same as not dropping trash on the street. You just need a person that is not consumed by their self importance.

I swear there will soon be people claiming that not only sun revolves around the earth but it revolves around that single person.

Regardless of if masks work or not there are many self-inflicted conditions like obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Coincidentally those conditions are the reason the health system almost became overwhelmed in the US. If we want to put a litmus test on treatment it would probably effect 90% of Covid-19 hospitalizations.
