I’m not seeing that anywhere in the news. I did find one link to an interview with the former FDA Commissioner, who strongly suggested that the unvaccinated wear a high quality mask. And that those who are vaxx’d could consider using something like an N-95 if they wanted more protection, since there is no longer a supply chain issue with them.
I mean it's not all or nothing. If the vaccine gives you 90 and cloth mask gives you 35%, you'd feel pretty good.

Yep, that’s the only thing I found too.I am not sure where you got that from. The only thing I can find on this is Scott Gottlieb on Face the Nation. He said and N95 mask will provide better protection then a cloth mask, especially for vulnerable individuals. This has always been the case. If you want to protect yourself from the virus an N95 is going to be far superior to a cloth mask. At no point in the interview did he make the absolute statement that N95 is the only way to be protected.

The mandate was to stop the spread and not protect the individual. So the N95 will help stop the viral load from someone else nearby who is unmasked, but will not stop the sick person from spreading the virus. If everyone were to wear cloth masks indoors, while still not stopping viral particles from escaping, would reduce the amount of them escaping the mask at any given moment and provide some protection to others. We haven't really had a mask mandate along with Delta to find out what impact cloth masks would have. It could be proven ineffective, but has been effective on other variants in the past.
That’s the point I’m trying to make.
When we were there two weeks ago you would have never known there was a pandemic occurring. No masks and no distancing. Except on the skyliner where they want you to wear a mask regardless if it’s only you and your party, lol.
I thought a mask is to protect others, not yourself especially considering your eyes are exposed and people go around touching their masks and rubbing their eyes and eating with their hands etc oftenI mean it's not all or nothing. If the vaccine gives you 90 and cloth mask gives you 35%, you'd feel pretty good.
But yeah, unvaxed should likely be n95-ing, but they're mostly going maskless.
A properly fitting N95 protects the wearer.
Only over the mouth and nose. If droplets get in your eyes from someone infected isn’t that still a risk of catching it?
I mean that's what they said in May 2020, but the science has since shown masks are fairly protective for the wearer as well. Other science has shown the major route of entry is dropplets through nose or mouth, so while eyes are possible they're not the main route of entry.
IN Mya 2020 they said that so we woulnt run out ah buy up al the N95 masks. There as already enough data at that time and even common sense that a mask protects the wearer. It; like they though this was a way to get the public onboard help they negibor, huge mistal theyw oul have had mroe peole for the mask if they said wear hte ,ask to pretect yourself. If we cared abput other vacinted peole woul wear masks or unvacined peole woul wear maks fact s no oe wan to
Yep, it was hard to decide how many to bring. We had to wear indoors and we knew the disposable types are a must in the heat. Gave us room for droids on the way home though lol
I have no idea how that jumble of words even posted, I meant to write something then got caught up in work then received a notification you responded,. I am not even sure how you understood anything, that mess was posted by my rear end on behalf of my pocket when I was sitting down!Part of it was to protect the supply of N95 masks, but the recommendation also changed because we realized that there was a lot asymptomatic transmission going on, so it made sense to ask everyone to wear at least a cloth masks since these would help reduce the spread of the virus from infected people.
The CDC Now Recommends Americans Wear Face Masks
Staying home is still the best way to protect yourself from the coronavirus. But the CDC now says that masks are effective as an additional measure.www.wired.com
That's not true at all. Please stop posting Covid misinformation here.
