I got banned from Lemmy.world for saying that the main purpose of the masks were to protect others from you instead of protecting you from others.
It’s like everyone forgot that masks were part of the “stop the spread” campaign.

Yup. A n95 with a proper fit is really the only mask that is going to actively protect you. Every other mask acts to mitigate spread from you.
And many people don’t wear their masks properly, so it still really only protects others from them.

Partially correct – cloth masks protect others, but an N95 actually protects the wearer.
