"Here's your answer visually demonstrated by a nurse https://youtu.be/6GV2E_2wb_0 Um... what do you think that actually proves?" It proves that unless you religiously follow every single step of how to correctly put on, wear and dispose of your mask- you're not saving anyone from anything as you're just contributing to cross contamination and spread your germs via your own hands. Correct steps are: 1. Sanitize/wash your hands before touching the mask. 2. Take the mask out of its packaging (not your pocket, not your wife's handbag, not your cars rear view mirror) 3. Put it on your face by holding ear straps. 4. Pinch nose so it securely fits. 5. Wash/sanktize your hands. 6. Do not touch your face or your mask while wearing it. 7. Do not wear it for any longer than 4 hours. 8. If you need to take your mask off to take a drink or eat something- dispose of current mask and follow steps 1 to 7. You can not reuse the same mask twice. How to dispose of your mask: 1. Sanitize/ wash your hands 2. Take a mask by its ear straps and take it off your face. 3. Put it in a bin. 4. Sanitize/wash your hands. Now please tell me you diligently follow every single step in correct order and have never ever ever reused a mask (especially at a restaurant where you had to put one on every time you got up for a pee) or skipped hand washing after taking it off  | |||

"Masks also reduce the spread of colds and flu, indisputable fact. Naysayers are living in march 2020 while the rest of the world moved on. " Ah but you're failing to take into account youtube people who can turn on a camera. | |||

Gosh that's a long reply. Summed up: wear a clean mask & don't fuck around with it.
You know, you can easily read up on the benefits of masks v Covid via a trusted medical source such as the NHS, the Lancet, the CDC etc. Or you could just go for some person on youtube, I guess. As you were..."I love how you avoided my question - have you or have you not followed every single step religiously and observed other people follow all of those steps ? Do you see many people walking around with boxes of clean masks in their hands or do you see people pull one out of their back pocket? How many people around you did you see wash their hands after giving their face a good scratch because their mask is too itchy? 
Love how you jumped onto discrediting the video because it's on YouTube. If the same video was on WHO website or on gov.uk would it make you suddenly believe that cross contamination is a real thing or do you need further proof?
If so - basic level 2 and level 3 food safety training course will provide you with everything you need to know about cross contamination  | |||

"Nope. It won't because you still touch things with your hands and the more you touch your dirty, itchy mask the more germs you get onto your hands and the more you pass them on. | |||

Do you or do you not religiously follow the correct steps of mask wearing? I've looked at all of those years ago, done my homework, thanks. And it would be correct and 100% accurate if all people would follow the correct steps. But they don't. They never have and never will. One or two might pop up here and act all uppity and claim they have never wore the same mask twice or pulled one out of their pocket or thar they wash their hands every single time they touch their face, but that is all... one or two people, most don't even know how to use them for them to be effective. So, for the last time, will you answer my question - have you or have you not diligently followed all the correct steps every single time you wore a mask? (Shouldn't be so hard to answer... I mean it's you who advocated so hard for them in the original post) | |||

"Masks help reduce the spread of Covid. It's simply a fact. The evidence is overwhelming & easy to find online via trusted medical sources. They're also cheap, safe & easy to use for the vast majority. And yet I know saying these things will result in confused anger from some. Why? When did we become so averse to science & reality?" Do you think their efficacy is very dependent on situation, environment, context? Dragging a manky old mask out of your handbag, applying it with your filthy hands for the 10 steps you'll take with it on. Sneezing into it and then putting it back in your handbag ready to repeat may produce variable results? That possibly have not yet produced "scientific" evidence for? | |||

Absolutely agree, that's 100% accurate if you want to reduce YOUR risk of becoming infected.
However
Even a dirty, germ infested oily rag over your face will reduce the chances of you infecting someone else if you have COVID / cold / flu
It depends whether your primary concern is looking after number 1 or you actually care about others.
Nope. It won't because you still touch things with your hands and the more you touch your dirty, itchy mask the more germs you get onto your hands and the more you pass them on.
"You seem hell bent on trying to disprove science. I don't get why your so concerned with people trying to stop passing on viruses to you ? Should we abandon condoms ? They're not 100% effective and if you get sperm in your hands then you never know where it will end up .. | |||

" Joking aside, I do actually follow those steps. It's nowhere near as hard as you make it out to be. But what am I thinking? Masks useless & evil. Booo!" So you never ever ever put the same mask on when you were eating out to help out and had to use the loo? Do you carry a box of fresh masks and a sanitizer just in case your nose gets itchy (granted don't need a sanitizer as much as most places offer it anyway) with you everywhere you go? Do you carry a zip lock baggy for used masks (in case there is no bin where you decided to take it off)? How many masks would you use a day (knowing that you must put on a fresh mask every time you take one off to take a sip of water or eat something)? | |||

Correct steps are: 1. Sanitize/wash your hands before touching the mask. 2. Take the mask out of its packaging (not your pocket, not your wife's handbag, not your cars rear view mirror) 3. Put it on your face by holding ear straps. 4. Pinch nose so it securely fits. 5. Wash/sanktize your hands. 6. Do not touch your face or your mask while wearing it. 7. Do not wear it for any longer than 4 hours. 8. If you need to take your mask off to take a drink or eat something- dispose of current mask and follow steps 1 to 7. You can not reuse the same mask twice. How to dispose of your mask: 1. Sanitize/ wash your hands 2. Take a mask by its ear straps and take it off your face. 3. Put it in a bin. 4. Sanitize/wash your hands. Now please tell me you diligently follow every single step in correct order and have never ever ever reused a mask (especially at a restaurant where you had to put one on every time you got up for a pee) or skipped hand washing after taking it off
Absolutely agree, that's 100% accurate if you want to reduce YOUR risk of becoming infected.
However
Even a dirty, germ infested oily rag over your face will reduce the chances of you infecting someone else if you have COVID / cold / flu
It depends whether your primary concern is looking after number 1 or you actually care about others.
Nope. It won't because you still touch things with your hands and the more you touch your dirty, itchy mask the more germs you get onto your hands and the more you pass them on.
You seem hell bent on trying to disprove science. I don't get why your so concerned with people trying to stop passing on viruses to you ?
Should we abandon condoms ? They're not 100% effective and if you get sperm in your hands then you never know where it will end up .."Not sure what used condoms have to do with mask efficacy but I don't see it as disproving science. More as proving science. That efficacy is strongly effected by the procedure, the Conditions, the environment etc. Now is there's been a scientific study into real world use of masks it would be great to see the outcomes of that. Like many of these debates there are way too many agendas. If a clean mask is used "properly" and disposed of properly, I don't doubt that it has an effect on germ control and management. | |||

I'm not trying to disprove anything, I've actually said in comments above that if everyone followed correct steps it would be somewhat beneficial. But people don't. The scientific fact that is currently mentioned in this thread doesn't paint a full and realistic (emphasis on realistic) picture. Cross contamination is a real thing, just because they don't show it on tv doesn't mean that people aren't taught to practice certain steps to avoid it. You know what is the absolute best practice to avoid spreading viruses? Staying at home when you're unwell. Like I currently have the flu which was passed on to me by someone who didn't stay at home when they knew they weren't well. No, I do not believe for a second that them wearing a mask would have made a button of a difference - wear fifty masks if you want, but on a night out you'll be fidgeting with them and pulling them up and down and touching your face then touching everything around you anyway... You know what I'm doing not to spread my flu? Laying in bed, arguing with online strangers on a virus forum as this seems the only time I have spare time
Your condom reference doesn't make any sense so I'll not comment on it.
Have a nice day | |||

So, for the last time, will you answer my question - have you or have you not diligently followed all the correct steps every single time you wore a mask? (Shouldn't be so hard to answer... I mean it's you who advocated so hard for them in the original post) I wouldn’t waste your time with these virtue signalling twats you know the type- I’ve been fully vaccinated status’s on their social media followed by the Ukrainian flag etc..- We all know that mask wearing does absolutely bugger all.

Yes, people were forced to wear face masks full time- ever worked a physically challenging 14h+ shift with a face mask on? Or spent 3h+ in a freezer with a mask on with condensation from your breath running back into your mouth? I have. A full year spent with it on - it was gross.

Thank you for getting lost in my sarcasm - you just proved my point "Sure. The only measurement of a reliable source is the platform it's on. Information can't be independently validated. YouTube is always lunacy and papers are always beyond reproach. Sometimes people who know things are in YouTube videos. If you think you've made a point, your local primary school might have pertinent lessons for you on knowing what sources to trust and internet safety. | |||

"Thing is. Isn't/wasn't YouTube used by schools and universities to teach science (amongst other subjects) especially during lockdown. " Yes, indeed. Many university lectures continue to be put on YouTube. YouTube - neutral. Anyone can post there. Who is posting, what are their credentials? Are they relevant to this area, do they have a good reputation? What are they arguing? Is it plausible given what we already know? (I'm not talking about confirming beliefs, I'm talking about bouncing off things we know for sure) Does it align with the current consensus? Does it make sense given surrounding research where there is consensus? How are they arguing? Do they use fallacies? Do their arguments follow? Are they using sources reliably? Are they using manipulative techniques to persuade an audience? None of these are enough on their own, and all of them can be overcome. But this is a shorthand way of figuring this stuff out. | |||

"Masks help reduce the spread of Covid. It's simply a fact. The evidence is overwhelming & easy to find online via trusted medical sources. They're also cheap, safe & easy to use for the vast majority. And yet I know saying these things will result in confused anger from some. Why? When did we become so averse to science & reality?" Mask science has been looked at for 30+ years in medical professionals with regards to viral transmission. Cloth masks have almost 0 filtration and get damp and contaminated extremely quickly. They are basically an infection risk. Surgical masks do almost nothing. Properly fitted n95 masks do offer some degree of protection. But in the pandemic almost no one was wearing these. In fact people were told not to wear them because they generally have an exhaust valve. It was just strap any random bit of cloth to your face and off you go. It was extremely retarded. Biologically re-using the same mask over and over is like, using the same piece of toilet paper over and over and thinking it keeps you clean. | |||

At some point normies will have to come to terms with reality, and not the fantasy bullshit sold by the media and politicians. " Healthcare dot org says: Blue surgical masks are safe and recommended for the public to wear to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Blue surgical face masks are made with non-woven fabric, which has been shown to have better bacteria filtration and airflow than woven cloth. The material most commonly used to make these masks is polypropylene—a type of fabric made from a “thermoplastic” polymer (meaning that it’s easy to work with and shape at high temperatures). Blue surgical masks can also be made of polystyrene, polycarbonate, polyethylene, or polyester— all of which are types of fabrics derived from thermoplastic polymers. It is not common practice for surgical masks to be manufactured using formaldehyde. However, some literature as well as reports from some surgical mask manufacturers have shown that blue surgical masks might include traces of formaldehyde and bronopol. These trace impurities of formaldehyde and bronopol have led to cases of contact dermatitis; however, these cases are not common, and have particularly been documented amongst individuals who are already susceptible to this condition either due to sensitive skin, allergies, or very long-term mask wearing (such as healthcare workers). Toluene—which is a toxic liquid used in gasoline—is not used to manufacture blue surgical masks and is not known to be found in surgical masks, even in trace amounts. On the contrary, toluene has been used to test how well different antimicrobial agents can filter out carbon and other pollutants when used on masks. Most surgical face masks also do not contain polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), the polymer that also makes Teflon, the brand name of a non-stick chemical coating commonly used on kitchen appliances such as pots and pans. If you do have a mask that contains PTFE, there is no evidence that wearing the mask would cause any flu-like symptoms or other negative outcomes when worn properly and normally. While some masks are sprayed with PTFE or have a PTFE filter, as PTFE has widely been used in the field of air filtration, it would take a mask with PTFE to 1) be heated to an extremely high temperature — 300 to 400 degrees celsius or 572 to 752 degrees Fahrenheit, 2) for fumes to be released, and 3) for those fumes to be breathed in, for any ailment to be caused. To be completely sure of the safety of a surgical mask, it helps to know where it came from (that is, to be able to see and read the box). If you are concerned about any potential allergic reactions to surgical face masks, another great option is to purchase or create your own cloth mask, as long as it is made out of cotton or linen, has at least two layers of fabric, covers your nose, and mouth, and has ear loops.

That aside, if you actually think about it for a second it makes sense that people who are struggling would struggle more when their faces are forced to be covered or those around them.

"There is a direct connection between mask wearing and poor mental health. Makes sense, I had to comfort many of my staff having panic attacks and anxiety attacks throughout 2020 because they felt like they were suffocating and every time they tried to take a deep breath - the mask would get right into their mouths. And that's people who didn't have any history of trauma. Can only imagine how hard it must have been for domestic violence victims and people who have genuine ptsd and can't have anything restricting their breathing or put on their face. Yet everyone was laughing at them, calling them a baby and granny killers... Missus " Thankfully, people who wear them for work as mandatory (not just medical professions) weren’t the people suffering these dramatic side effects. I hated wearing a mask - ruined my makeup! People with a background of DV or similar were not forced to wear one. There were some alternatives too; the lightweight Perspex type that stand away from your face. It was unpleasant and annoying but people didn’t half make a fuss. There was zero need for all these unwarranted anxiety attacks | |||

"Is it possible you can give the source of some factual statistics to back this up, and not some regurgitated words? Healthcare dot org says: Blue surgical masks are safe and recommended for the public to wear to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. Blue surgical face masks are made with non-woven fabric, which has been shown to have better bacteria filtration and airflow than woven cloth. The material most commonly used to make these masks is polypropylene—a type of fabric made from a “thermoplastic” polymer (meaning that it’s easy to work with and shape at high temperatures). Blue surgical masks can also be made of polystyrene, polycarbonate, polyethylene, or polyester— all of which are types of fabrics derived from thermoplastic polymers. It is not common practice for surgical masks to be manufactured using formaldehyde. However, some literature as well as reports from some surgical mask manufacturers have shown that blue surgical masks might include traces of formaldehyde and bronopol. These trace impurities of formaldehyde and bronopol have led to cases of contact dermatitis; however, these cases are not common, and have particularly been documented amongst individuals who are already susceptible to this condition either due to sensitive skin, allergies, or very long-term mask wearing (such as healthcare workers). Toluene—which is a toxic liquid used in gasoline—is not used to manufacture blue surgical masks and is not known to be found in surgical masks, even in trace amounts. On the contrary, toluene has been used to test how well different antimicrobial agents can filter out carbon and other pollutants when used on masks. Most surgical face masks also do not contain polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), the polymer that also makes Teflon, the brand name of a non-stick chemical coating commonly used on kitchen appliances such as pots and pans. If you do have a mask that contains PTFE, there is no evidence that wearing the mask would cause any flu-like symptoms or other negative outcomes when worn properly and normally. While some masks are sprayed with PTFE or have a PTFE filter, as PTFE has widely been used in the field of air filtration, it would take a mask with PTFE to 1) be heated to an extremely high temperature — 300 to 400 degrees celsius or 572 to 752 degrees Fahrenheit, 2) for fumes to be released, and 3) for those fumes to be breathed in, for any ailment to be caused. To be completely sure of the safety of a surgical mask, it helps to know where it came from (that is, to be able to see and read the box). If you are concerned about any potential allergic reactions to surgical face masks, another great option is to purchase or create your own cloth mask, as long as it is made out of cotton or linen, has at least two layers of fabric, covers your nose, and mouth, and has ear loops.

Precis from the ONS. Take a look.
Cases prior to mask wearing - lots.
Cases after mask wearing - lots less.

Obviously eat out to help out in a global pandemic made more people at risk "Open borders created and spread the different variations of the virus which were open during the majority of the UK lockdown. I agree with you with the eat out to help out but with the relaxation of the covid rules after the first round of inoculations it was to check the efficacy of the vaccine in its ability to reduce the impact on society of herd immunity which thankfully the majority of the UK population have. | |||

"Here's your answer visually demonstrated by a nurse https://youtu.be/6GV2E_2wb_0 Um... what do you think that actually proves? It proves that unless you religiously follow every single step of how to correctly put on, wear and dispose of your mask- you're not saving anyone from anything as you're just contributing to cross contamination and spread your germs via your own hands. Correct steps are: 1. Sanitize/wash your hands before touching the mask. 2. Take the mask out of its packaging (not your pocket, not your wife's handbag, not your cars rear view mirror) 3. Put it on your face by holding ear straps. 4. Pinch nose so it securely fits. 5. Wash/sanktize your hands. 6. Do not touch your face or your mask while wearing it. 7. Do not wear it for any longer than 4 hours. 8. If you need to take your mask off to take a drink or eat something- dispose of current mask and follow steps 1 to 7. You can not reuse the same mask twice. How to dispose of your mask: 1. Sanitize/ wash your hands 2. Take a mask by its ear straps and take it off your face. 3. Put it in a bin. 4. Sanitize/wash your hands. Now please tell me you diligently follow every single step in correct order and have never ever ever reused a mask (especially at a restaurant where you had to put one on every time you got up for a pee) or skipped hand washing after taking it off
Absolutely agree, that's 100% accurate if you want to reduce YOUR risk of becoming infected.
However
Even a dirty, germ infested oily rag over your face will reduce the chances of you infecting someone else if you have COVID / cold / flu
It depends whether your primary concern is looking after number 1 or you actually care about others.
"Nothing wrong to look out after your own health as a priority . Stop shaming people for doing so.
Here's a detailed account of the possible damages masks can do: "Is a Mask That Covers the Mouth and Nose Free from Undesirable Side Effects in Everyday Use and Free of Potential Hazards?" on PubMed ncbi. | |||

"Here's your answer visually demonstrated by a nurse https://youtu.be/6GV2E_2wb_0 Um... what do you think that actually proves? It proves that unless you religiously follow every single step of how to correctly put on, wear and dispose of your mask- you're not saving anyone from anything as you're just contributing to cross contamination and spread your germs via your own hands. Correct steps are: 1. Sanitize/wash your hands before touching the mask. 2. Take the mask out of its packaging (not your pocket, not your wife's handbag, not your cars rear view mirror) 3. Put it on your face by holding ear straps. 4. Pinch nose so it securely fits. 5. Wash/sanktize your hands. 6. Do not touch your face or your mask while wearing it. 7. Do not wear it for any longer than 4 hours. 8. If you need to take your mask off to take a drink or eat something- dispose of current mask and follow steps 1 to 7. You can not reuse the same mask twice. How to dispose of your mask: 1. Sanitize/ wash your hands 2. Take a mask by its ear straps and take it off your face. 3. Put it in a bin. 4. Sanitize/wash your hands. Now please tell me you diligently follow every single step in correct order and have never ever ever reused a mask (especially at a restaurant where you had to put one on every time you got up for a pee) or skipped hand washing after taking it off
Gosh that's a long reply. Summed up: wear a clean mask & don't fuck around with it.
You know, you can easily read up on the benefits of masks v Covid via a trusted medical source such as the NHS, the Lancet, the CDC etc. Or you could just go for some person on youtube, I guess. As you were...
I love how you avoided my question - have you or have you not followed every single step religiously and observed other people follow all of those steps ?
Do you see many people walking around with boxes of clean masks in their hands or do you see people pull one out of their back pocket?
How many people around you did you see wash their hands after giving their face a good scratch because their mask is too itchy?
Love how you jumped onto discrediting the video because it's on YouTube. If the same video was on WHO website or on gov.uk would it make you suddenly believe that cross contamination is a real thing or do you need further proof?
If so - basic level 2 and level 3 food safety training course will provide you with everything you need to know about cross contamination
Well you've convinced me with your confused rant. I'm off to burn my masks & build some sort of Wicker Man. Why not, I guess?
You still haven't answered my question!
How convenient
Yup everything's a conspiracy. I'm on your side now.
What should I put in my Wicker Man? A pile of masks? Or some sort of effigy wearing a minimask?"You could always just grow up and leave your mask nonsense in the bin, and return to living like you did for many many years before 2020 | |||

"I see you're incapable of having an adult conversation without jumping on a conspiracy wagon. How mature. Yup I was terribly immature when I suggested you look at a trusted medical source such as the NHS, the Lancet, the CDC etc to see the effects of masks v Covid. Oh well. Too late now since I'm a born-again antimasker. Burn all those masks, I say! (Also, knickers. They can't be hygienic for pussies.) You still haven't answered my question. Do you or do you not religiously follow the correct steps of mask wearing? I've looked at all of those years ago, done my homework, thanks. And it would be correct and 100% accurate if all people would follow the correct steps. But they don't. They never have and never will. One or two might pop up here and act all uppity and claim they have never wore the same mask twice or pulled one out of their pocket or thar they wash their hands every single time they touch their face, but that is all... one or two people, most don't even know how to use them for them to be effective. So, for the last time, will you answer my question - have you or have you not diligently followed all the correct steps every single time you wore a mask? (Shouldn't be so hard to answer... I mean it's you who advocated so hard for them in the original post) I wouldn’t waste your time with these virtue signalling twats you know the type- I’ve been fully vaccinated status’s on their social media followed by the Ukrainian flag etc..- We all know that mask wearing does absolutely bugger all. "Exactly. Wear a piece of cloth does f all. Just part of the brainwashing of the last few years | |||

Responsible. HA! Feeling fine for the last 2 years with no symptoms or illness. Go on then, prove I passed it on. I’ll wait…
Nobody was scared of covid, apart from the brainwashed few. They wore masks because they didn’t want confrontation in shops or to get in “trouble”. They took jabs for clubs, holidays or were bullied into it. Not through fear.
If people genuinely cared then the vast majority would still wear them. They don’t.
You lot just cling onto it because you can’t admit that you were lied to, brainwashed and scammed. Everyone’s moved on, get over it. prove you didn’t pass it on
How does one prove a negative? Should she also prove she didnt give it to someone in sengal? Or albania?

SAGE was reported in July 2020 to consist of around 20 participants at any one given time.
