This is a non sequitur. Surgeons don't wear masks to prevent transmission of airborne viruses.


Why don't you go to a hospital and ask someone who works there why they wear masks and whether they prevent transmission of airborne viruses?

As is a pattern in your replies you continue being either horribly ignorant or just downright malicious, neither of which is surprising from someone who uses CSAM as a shield for censorship. If you think for even an iota of a second that properly worn surgical masks are comparable to the cheap slapped-on masks that were worn during the pandemic, then you’re genuinely not worth discussing this with. Not to mention you didn’t even actually interface with any of previous reply, namely the very first reference I used which already discredited this ignorance.

Continue mindlessly spreading misinformation and lies, you’re a waste of my time.


And surgeons are standing above cut openings in the body, so preventing spittle and other bodily droplets is the main reason for the mask. They use a better mask and throw it away upon hours of use. Covid is airborne, not droplet based infection. Wearing a mask for hours and improperly also has other health-related issues aside from mental ones.
