The people who are against mask wearing cannot really say they don't work because they, as a group, never bought into wearing them and therefore kept the virus alive and kicking.
Now if all the anti-maskers had worn masks, stayed inside/away from other people, for say two months straight and STILL we had outbreaks, upticks, second waves etc then I would agree wearing masks are useless. But unless EVERYONE wears them, together, for a concentrated period of time, it's ultimately useless.
You only need one "typhoid Mary" to totally fuck up a community.
