All the little masks that people are running around wearing don't do anything except stop "droplets" (liquid again) when you sneeze.

The virus itself is microscopic and isn't affected at all by the mask.
There shouldn't be any debate about wearing masks.

The virus itself is microscopic. However, the virus is carried in the air by water droplets - from when we breathe out, cough, or sneeze. The masks prevent the water droplets from entering your mouth and nose when you breathe.

It it 100% effective? Dunno. But it's better than nothing.

Vegas is opening up, and they got slammed with new cases. Now the casinos are making everyone wear masks.
