Mask filtration principles

The principle behind how masks work is that air passes through a bunch of small pores or holes. The stuff that is bigger than the holes gets stopped by the smaller holes. You can pour a pot of water and pasta through a strainer and witness how masks filter out stuff. All we need to know here for filtering viruses is the size of the hole or pore in the mask, and of course the size of the virus. If the pores are 300 to 10,000 times larger than the virus or virus carrying droplet, then we know that the mask is not the correct ppe. Duh...

Quotes of mask studies are not how masks work, and neither are claims that they do in fact work. Claims that masks work and quotes of studies are propaganda. If a doctor or scientist claims that masks work, it is not the same thing as HOW masks work. No claim that masks work, regardless of if they are correct or not, is how masks work.

There is a good reason why lefties will not discuss HOW masks work, and why they need to evade or quote propaganda that simply claims that masks work. The reason is that even a five year old child can see that smaller stuff will flow through larger holes. The difference in the tiny size of a virus compared to the enormous holes or pores in cheap paper and cloth masks is breathtaking.

Quotable reminder: This thread is not a debate about IF masks work, it is about "HOW" masks work.

When it comes to discussing HOW masks work, lefties will fight to evade this topic like a cat fights being shoved into a toilet. The HOW masks work topic is off limits for lefties.
 
The only thing you need to know is COVID is a respiratory virus that is shed and transmitted through respiratory fluids just like any respiratory illness. Guess what keeps those fluids from going airborne? For heavens sake, doctors offices have had you put on a mask if you have a cold or flu for years.

It is amazing how much of my opening post you just proved to be true. Thank you for validating my opening post.
 
Evadin' Evmetro continues to evade and make excuses on page one.

"It's fake!" - Evmetro. :rofl2:

This is not how masks work, but this is EXACTLY what the last 3 paragraphs of the opening post are about. You and every other lefty on this thread are doing a fantastic job proving my opening post is spot on.
 
The natural lefty reaction to the opening post is to evade or cheat. They will be compelled to post "something" in response to it, but nothing that addresses the topic. They will want to find a way to marginalize the topic without having to present a better argument, since cheating is so innate. Just look at anything that any lefty posts on this thread and you will see that they are cheating by evading posting a stronger argument than the one they are trying to marginalize.

Here's a bit of historical irony I've just learned.

"During the late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), Chinese medical scientist Wu Liande invented a mask made of two layers of gauze called "Wu's mask" in response to a plague in Northeast China. This mask was highly complimented by experts in different countries as it is simple to manufacture, has a low production cost and the materials are easy to obtain."

"...famous painter Leonardo da Vinci proposed soaking cloth in water and placing it on his face in order to filter out toxic chemicals coming from people's respiratory systems. This effective method is still widely used in fire escape guides today."

Wow.

you are an idiot. try to think, if you can. masks keep infected people from exhaling or sneezing or yelling out enough virus that make it through their mask far enough to infect anybody else wearing a mask that is not 10" from their face. regardless of the size of the actual virus. try to imagine wearing a mask and you laugh real loud and squirt milk out your nose or mouth....how far do you think the majority of milk spew might flow? a foot or so? because the density of even poorly made masks still is dense enough to block the majority of milk flowing out, with only a small percentage escaping and even then being slowed down. now think about how far the milk would spew without a mask? nobody is claiming masks would not let some virus escape, if it were that dense, you would suffocate when wearing a mask!! are you trying to be a dumbass? if so, kudos...
