Or while driving alone with one on. Or out in the park in 30Mph winds. Or how the elites go maskless while all their help is forced to submit and obey.

Sweden has proven masks do not work
A New World Health Organization Report Once Again Proves Sweden Right
Even The WHO has to acknowledge realityianmsc.substack.com
What a laughable source..
The self published clown who also thinks surgical masks do nothing for surgeons
They know they cant actually. Clearly and obviously in recent news,its because of the people they employee that are running the show.
Surgeons do not wear masks to protect against airborne viruses (either for themselves or the patient) and never have. They have some value relative to control of bodily fluids (in either direction), but SARS-CoV-2 is airborne, so it's not useful protection against that.
He thinks they do nothing at all
He is not a useful source of anything objective
And in the context of SARS-COV-2, an airborne respiratory virus, he's correct.
But then how would we know whos woke and follows the science and has 1000 virtue signal points in their justice warrior account?!?
Science says an infection isn't binary.
It's about viral load.
Are we seriously back to 2020 and trying to learn the fundamentals again?
Lets try something that doesn't work again. 
I'm actually pretty surprised they are going to enforce a mask mandate on employees. I'd expect some backlash, at least here in the US.
Masks do nothing unless you are properly wearing a N95 mask. Enough with this madness!
>imagine being lied to by government for 2 whole years now and conditioned to self-harm with a placebo mask to virtue signal and show your submission to the state
What’s worse, there are people who *like* doing this, as we observe in real life and read about here. Oppression goes as far people are willing to tolerate it.
Fun fact: If you look up Anthony Fauci’s publication list, he actually co-authored an article about how more people died not from the Spanish Flu, but rather from bacteria build up from wearing a mask ?

Indeed! Human must expose themselves to the world in order to maintain a strong immune system. This is how we are deigned to survive. Hiding from germs will make a persons immune system weak over time.
You provided links to two articles. One from a crackpot conspiracy theorist professor who was fired from the university he worked at.
The other article is about cloth masks not being as good as N95 masks. I don’t believe you read the article, which would explain why you think it’s saying things it doesn’t. Here is the conclusion of that article you posted. I suggest you read it, as it does not back up anything you claimed it did on the previous page.
Conclusions
“The filtration, effectiveness, fit, and performance of cloth masks are inferior to those of medical masks and respirators. Cloth mask use should not be mandated for healthcare workers, who should as a priority be provided proper respiratory protection. Cloth masks are a more suitable option for community use when medical masks are unavailable. Protection provided by cloth masks may be improved by selecting appropriate material, increasing the number of mask layers, and using those with a design that provides filtration and fit. Cloth masks should be washed daily and after high-exposure use by using soap and water or other appropriate methods.”
Why would you post something that has been widely debunked as a myth?
You might be a ? but I hope the rest of us aren't.
Yeah, it’s alarming really the disconnect between the media vs. the scientific data.
We have known, since the very first boosters (2nd shot), that they paradoxically increase your risk of infection, that the more boosters you receive, empirical data suggest negative efficacy.
The latest study I saw was stating that a 4th booster only produced higher antibodies for up to 3 weeks of protection.
At this point it’s mostly a money game for the manufacturers.
Sweden has proven masks do not work

Well, they falsely state Sweden didn't close down schools. They did. Twice for high schools and higher education.
Also, they did recommend use of masks in some indoor settings like public transport.
During the first two years of the pandemic Sweden had more than 8.3 times the number of dead than Norway even though the population is only double. And Norway had much stricter mandates than Sweden including mask mandates.
They never closed elementary schools. And total excess deaths (all causes) are lower in Sweden than Norway. This fixation with a single respiratory disease needs to end.
That's my assessment as well. There's a sizable percentage of the population who act selfishly towards fellow humans and go out of their way to ignore science and instead cling to conspiracy theories while getting their "data" from dubious sources that support their conspiratorial views.
lol, did you even read what I said. I said it does little to nothing. At best it prevents spittle. This other CDC article even has charts to illustrate that.
https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7106e1.htm
It reduces the chances of your breathe spreading out into the air more than it already does. Therefore my assertion that it does nothing to prevent airborne pathogen from infecting you is correct. It will not prevent you from getting covid. Period. Masks will do very little to mitigate the spread. ANd the inconsistent data from state to state that had variations of mask mandates with widely different infection rates bears that out as well. The mask by themselves provide little if any protection. And that the larger picture is more complicated in determining the infection rate. Mandating masks that the CDC in prior articles stated as such to be ineffective at preventing air borne pathogen until political motivations changed that narrative.
