The reality is that you can easily get infected through a mask, but the viral load is much lower

Also if all the people around you are wearing masks in addition to yourself, then it's way way lower

I tried explaining this to a friend who was convinced masks do nothing. He would say stuff like "if it can still get through then what's the point". He claimed only people at risk should wear them.
