You cannot make a blanket statement like that to cover all situations, and there isn't any "scientist" who thinks you can
No one said masks cover all situations. Sigh. There certainly has been enough information put out by the scientists that dictate when masks are needed: People age 2 and older should wear masks in public settings and when around people who don’t live in their household.​
When you wear a mask, you protect others as well as yourself. Masks work best when everyone wears one.
A mask is NOT a substitute for social distancing. Masks should still be worn in addition to staying at least 6 feet apart, especially when indoors around people who don’t live in your household.
Wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds or use hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol after touching or removing your mask.
Masks may not be necessary when you are outside by yourself away from others, or with other people who live in your household. However, some localities may have mask mandates while out in public, please check for the rules in your locality. Happy?
