The mask is supposed to stop the wearer from expelling the virus (through micro-droplet or spit) to others if they are wearing the mask. To prove this theory put on a mask go to the bathroom and try spitting with the mask on onto the mirror. Do you see any spits on the mirror? Now take the mask off and spit on the mirror. See the difference? It's not "Rocket Science" people. The mask is just another barrier to stop the spread of the virus.

I understand the importance of masks and who they protect. Overboost has another opinion and I was merely asking for information to understand how he came to a different conclusion.

Note-choosing not to respond to "its not rocket science people" comment.
