Scientifically speaking, it’s true. They only claim it helps prevent droplets(spit) from being transferred.

That just means you have a strong healthy immune system... Could also be that you might never catch covid because of some other severe or moderate allergy you may have... Do you know anything about that?
The mask isn't doing shit - I almost never wear a mask unless it's forced on me and didn't catch covid or the flu during the same time period and was never vaxxed either

Using a mask to prevent covid or the flu is the equivalent of using a chainlink fence to stop mosquitoes
(true story)
there are these really special ones:
...true story.
also, (incidental question) you do know we don't glock18 individual viruses out of our faces, right? you know they hitch rides on respiratory droplets... right? RIGHT???

Allergic conditions linked to lower COVID-19 infection risk | BMJ
Older age, male sex, and other medical conditions not associated with heightened risk ….Unlike Asian ethnicity, obesity, overcrowding, socialising, and people-facing roles People with allergic conditions such as hay fever, rhinitis, and atopic eczema, may have a lower risk of COVID-19 infection...

Then go ahead and wear one if you think that'll win the fight that doesn't exist
Even if severe allergies somehow have a actual benefit here i am not giving up wearing a mask. If it gives me any protection against covid at all i will take it.
We also need that Cuban vaccine that actually works up here. You dont need to wear a mask now in Cuba because there is no covid there basically

Why does anyone care if other people are wearing a mask? I don't wear one but truly don't give a fuck if others do.

It’s ok for them to make those assumptions because…well because they have the poison to their kids and they gotta sleep at night

First off, you might as well hold a tennis racket over your face…do you have ANY clue how small a virus is ?
I have a idea that viruses are small yes i get that. What i dont get is why is not wearing a mask seen as some bastion of freedum with you guys? I don't mind wearing a mask at all. The PIRA where ahead of their time imo

it's got nothing to do with "freedom"
www.city-journal.org
Evidence continues to mount that mask mandates were perhaps the worst public-health intervention in modern American history. While concluding that wearing masks “probably makes little or no difference” in preventing the spread of viruses, a recent Cochrane review also emphasized that “more attention should be paid to describing and quantifying the harms” that may come from wearing masks. A new study from Germany does just that, and it suggests that the excess carbon dioxide breathed in by mask-wearers may have substantial ill-effects on their health—and, in the case of pregnant women, their unborn children’s.
Mask-wearers breathe in greater amounts of air that should have been expelled from their bodies and released out into the open. “[A] significant rise in carbon dioxide occurring while wearing a mask is scientifically proven in many studies,” write the German authors. “Fresh air has around 0.04% CO2,” they observe, while chronic exposure at CO2 levels of 0.3 percent is “toxic.” How much CO2 do mask-wearers breathe in? The authors write that “masks bear a possible chronic exposure to low level carbon dioxide of 1.41–3.2% CO2 of the inhaled air in reliable human experiments.”
In other words, while eight times the normal level of carbon dioxide is toxic, research suggests that mask-wearers (specifically those who wear masks for more than 5 minutes at a time) are breathing in 35 to 80 times normal levels.
The Harm Caused by Masks
A new study suggests that the excess carbon dioxide breathed in by mask-wearers can have major health consequences.
