For the umpteenth time, masks are there to protect others...not yourself. I know you're looking for any justification for your non-mask wearing stance...but the continued argument that masks don't protect the mask wearer aint the one you're looking for.
Follow CDC guidelines, or just accept that you're putting others at risk. Continuing to argue beside the point will do nothing to change the opinion of others...or reality.
John, like Rick, it is unlikely that you will admit your error. I need no justification for not wearing a mask. Not wearing a mask is the default, the norm. Wearing a mask, with all of its implications, is what needs a justification,. There is no possible way that mask-wearing by a healthy person protects others. It is the height of absurdity. It's like wearing a condom in public to keep others from getting pregnant. Illogical to the point of approaching insanity. Masks have always been, and still are, used in an attempt to protect the wearer. Only under controlled hospitalization conditions is protection of others a significant benefit.
I don't have to accept either CDC guidelines, or your false claims that I'm putting others at risk. The WHO still does not recommend the wearing of masks.
The only correct point of your post is that you aren't planning on changing your opinion.
