RE:RE:Face Masks.... more common sense

Ever hear of EVAPORATION !!!    When some of those tiny water droplets carrying the Virus evaporate in the air, where do you think the virus is left?  In the air.   They are air borne!!!   

You ever see how a humidifier works??  It shoots a mist of water in the air.   It evaporates even before it hits the ground.

Preexisting conditions plays a large role whether you live or die.  What they've found is the highest risk factor is morbid obesity, a BMI of 30+ or 40 lbs overweight because your lungs aren't large enough to handle the spread.  Dr. Vuong's collegue in NY found 70% of patients who have no other preexisting conditions were hooked up to ventillators only had morbid obesity in common.  His collegue in NY has patients in their 30s hooked up to ventilators with no other condition than morbid obesity, 40+ lbs overweight.  It's not an old person virus.  Watch this video explaining what COVID-19 is and how it can kill you from a Dr. Duc Vuong, a general surgeon from Texas who wrote 13 books. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J0d59dd-qM

But it does provide some protection.  Some is better than NONE.   It can reduce the amount (concentration) of viruses entering your body.    Concentration of initial infection probably plays a large role in how bad you get, if you live or die.

Face Mask best use probably is for the infected person to wear it.  Stoping/reducing the spread at its source.   

And since we don't know who's infected or not, best everyone wear a mask.

Some protection is better than none.   Some prevention is better than none.
