I'll say this as gently as I can. You are wrong. And posting such misinformation is bad for public health and disease prevention. Your research is not correct. You need to be reading more scientific and fewer political websites. If you are actually interested you may PM me and I will reply with several accurate up to date references.
Wearing a mask does not reduce your oxygen intake up to 60%. The wearer would drop like a rock in a matter of minutes. Surgeons and OR nurses would be unable to work. A simple google search would completely debunk your false beliefs about the danger of masks
Just google
What is the effect of masks on oxygen and carbon dioxide and read the hits.
You are free to "believe" what you want. Your beliefs are not science based and are only being pushed on right wing conspiracy theory websites and media. Fortunately you can take the opportunity to read the truth on other sources.
