All of what he said is wrong though. All masks help even if just a bit. N95/kn100’s help a ton. I use a black kn100 everyday, it fits great, super comfy, and looks great. https://ppeo.com/goods/black-kn100-mask/

Covid is something to worry about because it affects every organ in the body causing organ damage and brain damage. Long Covid gives people possibly life long disabilities and 1 in 10 infections cause Long Covid (and most people are getting 2-3 infections a year)

Despite the original double vax, and every suggested booster, I'm pretty sure I caught it from my dentist in July 2022. I was still wearing a mask everywhere at that point, with a KN95 in any situation where I'd be near people for extended situations.

I've had the flu 3 times in my life. This was as bad as the worst of them, with a completely lost week.

That said, I am hyper cautious around others and will still keep wearing my 'please maintain your distance' sign.
