Sorry, BF, but the mask doesn't keep YOU healthy. But it may keep those around you from getting the virus, IF you are indoors, and IF you are closer than 6 feet and IF you are coughing/sneezing or spitting your letter "P"'s, and IF you carry the virus in the first place, and IF you can spout out enough of an inoculum that once transferred can infect another person.
A lot of "IF"s. However I wear a mask indoors because 1) overall the use of masks decreases the spread of the virus---not on an individual basis, but when applied to a large population and 2) it makes others feel better.
BTW, you can wait for the viral threat to regress before you pay me the lobster YOU OWE ME!(for 4 years now)
