False. They are effective.
Quite an assertion, effective at what comes to mind since you don't spell that part out. Uncharacteristically.

They stop spittle you say, a gross and disgusting part of the human experience (in fact I may never speak to another person again, the image of our mutually spitting on each other is just too much) although your example is of glass stopping spittle, not masks, but who's counting.

How big (or small) is the virus?

How big (or small) are the holes in the mask?

Even science can figure this one out, no need for anecdotal tales about glass barriers.

Just saying.

Saw that you might have gotten out of the wrong side of the bed today.

Edit: I have no idea if masks work for this situation, or which masks, been told all sorts of things, often conflicting, often from the same person. I wear them because I'm old and now very sheep-like.
