    The problem with mask evaders like you is that you hang out with others like you and pass this horror back and forth...like Stupid Louie Goober did

    As you even note...they offer SOME protection for the wearer..but more importantly a LOT of protection for everyone else from the wearer.

    Suggesting people are dumb for not agreeing with you and avoiding giving counter points is uninformed narcissism.

    So the chance of Ghomert contracting it because he shunned mask, are pretty remote. Thus undermining the entire thread. A "mich drop" if ever there was one.

    If we assume that Louie recovers from the virus, as the vast majority do, who will be better off going forward, Louie, or those still hiding behind their masks?

    No one has said that a mask stops the transmission. Why is that lie being spread by anti-maskers?

    I think you should purposefully infect yourself with covid. This way, you'll be over with it, one way or another, and you'll be "better off going forward". Let us know how it goes.

    If they do, show the science behind it. Show or cite the study instead of just your word or faith.

    Ok, show the study. Show the peer reviewed study that suggests that your assertion is correct. So since they are so numerous, it shouldn't be hard for you to cite one here.

    Sure. So cite one. Show us just one of these studies that you claim.

    Hmmm…... it did get the guy who was so hateful, callous, stupid and uncaring he didn't wear a mask a case of Covid ….so maybe there's something to that Karma stuff...:)

    Ole Golem is a special one, he was saying states should remain closed yet he opened his business. Do as I say not as I do lefty. Protests bad unless it's rioting/looting in Dem cities. No respect for anyone that preaches one thing yet does another. I wear mask in public out of respect for others but am not dumb enough to believe that it's ever going to stop any particles from entering. Lefty politics is always feelz, they are now bragging on NY yet no one can touch them in death tolls, things that make you go whatttt?

    Democrat influencers and media: "Louie Gohmert is an anti-mask witch!"

    Louie Gohmert (3rd person from the left), wearing a mask and social distancing...

    I know a handful, but they all work in healthcare so they are close to it. Admittedly, I don't know how much that represents relative to the whole but I can safely say the number is not zero.

    False...those who shun masks engage in OTHER risky behavior as well...

    Like spreading Covid all through the halls of Congress

    You should probably have some forensics behind your assertion. It seems pretty lite otherwise. I always get a kick out of the news opinion spreaders when they do their televised stand up, sans masks of course.....

    What would you debate about it?

    Peer reviewed studies show unequivocally that masks, even makeshift cloth masks, significantly reduce the risk of infecting others, and slightly reduce the risk of the wearer getting infected.

    https://www.thelancet.com/pdfs/journals/lanres/PIIS2213-2600(20)30134-X.pdf
    https://www.bmj.com/content/369/bmj.m1435.short

    There are hundreds....

    This is a meta analysis of 67 studies
    https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21735402/

    This one uses 15 studies

    A breeze. There are literally hundreds. I have been sending references to studies for months, and they are all over.

    Here is a sample.

    Wrong. While not 100% guaranteed, if offers a great deal of protection as opposed to not wearing one.

    That is debatable. Our so called experts say it is not. I believe it provides some protection, but how much is up for grabs.
