I'll concede that healthy people wearing fresh masks for shorter durations such as healthcare workers in surgical environments shouldn't experience issues. But look at how many wearing them now dont fall into those categories, and how long in duration lay people are forced to wear them. I live in Vegas, and see it every day. Seniors sitting in front of slot machines for 8 or more hours a day, in smoky environments, and the mask never comes off but for breaks to eat, drink and smoke. Young people walking around in burkas and gators that dont get washed, and people wearing the same unwashed disposable masks for days or weeks on end. Nobody is warning them how dangerous this is.

Where is the science that indicates wearing a mask in any way prevents or attenuates the propagation of virus infections?

i.e. why are we being forced to wear masks instead of the government helping people to improve their immune systems... the real defence against viral infections.

Where is the "Biggest bang for the buck" analysis? or any kind of analysis??

Just wondering.
