At the very beginning of the plandemic there were a lot of discussions about the masks. Basically all experts agreed that to be effective, the masks should be at least N95 and discarded after one use. In addition you should also use eye protection, otherwise the virus enters through the tear channels. Since it's not realistic to expect most people to adhere to these rules, humanity used the last bit of common sense and avoided mandating masks for a while. Nowadays masks are not only useless, but probably aggravate the problem. People keep a mask in every pocket for weeks, sometimes months. You put it on, touch everything and take it off again to put it back in your pocket. The mask is probably the dirtiest object in your household.
