We’ve known all of this. I feel like I beating a dead hoax here – except it’s not dead and it just won’t go away.
!Science! has known since around 1920 that facemasks DO NOT halt the transmission of viral illnesses. They also make the wearer look like a damned fool (which is usually a most appropriate look). Now, we have a CoronaHoax-specific study of these dangerous quasi-religious vestments: Facemasks in the COVID-19 era: A health hypothesis, Baruch Vainshelboim. Okay, we had this in November 2020, but beating the dead hoax again…

Emergency medicine demonstrates that 5–6 min of severe hypoxemia during cardiac arrest will cause brain death with extremely poor survival rates [20], [21], [22], [23]. On the other hand, chronic mild or moderate hypoxemia and hypercapnia such as from wearing facemasks resulting in shifting to higher contribution of anaerobic energy metabolism, decrease in pH levels and increase in cells and blood acidity, toxicity, oxidative stress, chronic inflammation, immunosuppression and health deterioration [24], [11], [12], [13].
Efficacy of facemasks
The physical properties of medical and non-medical facemasks suggest that facemasks are ineffective to block viral particles due to their difference in scales [16], [17], [25]. According to the current knowledge, the virus SARS-CoV-2 has a diameter of 60 nm to 140 nm [nanometers (billionth of a meter)] [16], [17], while medical and non-medical facemasks’ thread diameter ranges from 55 µm to 440 µm [micrometers (one millionth of a meter), which is more than 1000 times larger [25]. Due to the difference in sizes between SARS-CoV-2 diameter and facemasks thread diameter (the virus is 1000 times smaller), SARS-CoV-2 can easily pass through any facemask [25].

You can’t breathe, you might die, you will suffer oxygen deprivation – but at least the virus will be okay… It’s like driving a truck down a wide, unobstructed road – no hindrance whatsoever. The virus with the 99.9% survival rate that most people don’t even know if they have it. The rebranded common cold and nothing more. A hoax. A war crime against humanity. Read the whole study. There are psychological maladies associated as well. People are doing this to themselves and to their kids. They’d like me to participate. I will not. You shouldn’t either.
Take the damned thing off. Burn it.
