Take a look at the people who work in the types of labs this virus leaked from: they're not wearing N95 masks, they're wearing full body positive pressure suits. Not PAPRs, because even the P100 filters on those don't filter viruses, but positive positive pressure suits with air plumbed in from somewhere else.

yes this is true - prolonged exposure - like students at school - masked with anything but full body protection will probably expose everyone. I am 180 degrees from my stance 12 months ago, now that vaccines have been released and proven.

Vaccine is the only defense.

But I dont mind masks, they have a lot of ancillary benefits. I wear them when I go in stores, it costs me nothing.
