Masks work, but the problem is that in the most high risk situations, they're either not practical (indoor restaurants, bars, theaters, and other events where eating & drinking is required to be sustainable) or enforceable (private indoor gatherings). So instead the beatings for vaccinated people are continuing until morale improves among the unvaccinated in venues with low to moderate risk. At least we've finally (I think) learned enough about the bigtime importance of ventilation to stop harassing people with NPIs outdoors.

It's not worth putting this much thought into a Verb post, he doesn't.

Yeesh, as usual when I post here I'm trying to find some common ground, and you're coming guns blazing at me. Obviously I was gone for a while, but I don't recall you being this trigger happy before.

That ain't it. You might get there on "mask mandates don't work" or "masks are the most overemphasized NPI", but not that glib.

What are the numbers on reduced transmission with masks?

Mask mandates were what, 2% reduction in transmission when (imperfectly) compared to equivalent regions without mask mandates?
