“We should not expect RCTs of badly designed masks, masks that don’t fit or masks that are worn only some of the time, to show an effect. Neither should we expect mere advice to wear masks to have any effect unless it is followed.” THANK YOU @trishgreenhalgh.bluesky.social
If it doesn't get inside you, it can't make you sick.
Respirators are designed by experts to help protect you from aerosol hazards, including COVID, the flu and other airborne diseases, and tested to make sure they are effective - and they are.
Anyone who tells you otherwise is a quack.

This is the health advice in New York on our current situation. The Public are being advised to wear an N95/ffp2 respirator. This is the correct advice. The disparity between this advice which is correct for airborne transmission and UKHSA saying wear an FRSM is huge.

When you hear people say

and now they wish
they had worn a mask,
calmly and kindly tell them
that they missed the chance
to prevent their current infection
but they can still wear a mask
to help prevent their next one.
