Personally, I DO believe masks can make a difference and I am happy to see businesses require them. I DON'T believe they are a complete solution or the only thing needed for a solution.

I used the adverb "virtually" because I am sure that some purported "expert" does not agree that masks work. Neither I nor anybody else claims masks are a "complete" solution. They are clearly a necessary part of getting the virus under control, which is necessary to save both lives and our economy. We need immediate county action on a mask mandate.
