The mask isn't to protect the person wearing it. The mask is to stop the person wearing it from infecting others if they're contagious.

Yeah anytime you guys could stop parading around boldly declaring that America is the Florida of the world, that'd be great.

RIIIIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHT. All those Asians wearing masks in Japan, HongKong, Taiwan, etc. for the past several decades -- theyre just doing to protect others, not themselves?

These kids in Hong Kong's 2003 SARS outbreak already sick and protecting their own classmates?

Or healthy and wearing the masks so as not to catch the infection?

How about here?

Just sick people riding the bus together? Or healthy people wearing them so as not to catch SARS?

lol at people getting pissy over stupid political memes. I don't side with most of the political memes I post, because they're that ridiculous from all spectrums.

I know it's hard to believe but Japanese people do things for the greater good of the whole group. Masks are worn to stop spreading your own germs around and they offer very little protection from the wearer from getting sick. So if everyone wore one that would dramatically reduce the risk of others getting infected. I remember seeing a post some where in here that had a good analogy about this that used pants and pissing as an example. Since covid-19 can be asymptomatic (that means the carrier does not show any signs of illness) it's impossible to know if you're infected or not if you are still mingling with others.

Face masks are now recommended for all, but how much do they help?

No one wants to get sick. During pandemics—or even just normal flu season—that desire to avoid the ill and inferm shoots up, and we start taking extra precautions. But if you do one thing this winter to keep yourself from catching a virus, don’t let it be wearing a face mask.

Japanese wear masks because fiddling with your face in public is considered rude and rather than appear rude they would rather a facemask full of snot.

Same reason Japanese cover their mouths, generally, when they do things like...laugh.

Butt hay, least you tried:

the internet is a magical place where everyone has an answer and it is diametrically opposed to everyone else's, which shouldn't even be possible, and yet it is.

Why single out Japan?

Do the Chinese practice this level of altruism and egalitarianism too?

Originally the mask narrative was you wear a mask to protect yourself. Then the narrative had to be flipped around 180 degrees and be framed as "protecting" others because you cant shame other people into pushing your narrative, if the only person they are harming is themselves.

Masks for 90% of Asians have ALWAYS been about protecting self, not others.

"Japan and China wear them to protect the respiratory tract from pollution and infection, and to prevent the spread of any pathogens they might be carrying."

It's literally a click away to find out why...
