Hold on Dana. Be careful who you call ignorant. You are comparing apples to oranges when you talk about surgeons and dentists who where masks and the general public wearing them to prevent covid. Masks are proven NOT to protect anyone from viruses. A virus is 1000 times smaller than the smallest bacteria and the holes in masks do not stop viruses from entering or exiting your mouth and nose. Surgeons wear masks in surgery to protect the patient from getting bacteria (specifically bacterial spores) from entering the open surgical site, same with dentists, etc. Don't think that just because some bureaucrat on T.V. tells you that a mask prevents either you from getting a virus or you giving someone else a virus, doesn't make it true! Unless you have some knowledge of infection control be careful about making a judgement as to who is ignorant.
