Scientists and epidemiologists admit that there is no evidence that masks prevent the transmission of respiratory infections, but state the people should wear them anyway.
Evan as it turns out that states who are loosening the ‘lockdown’ restrictions are seeing reductions in COVID cases. This tracks with what I saw last week, that there is no evidence that lockdowns change the progression of COVID infections in populations.
So do we stay in lockdown until there is a vaccine, or just until the election is over?

I imagine it's until the outrage and civil (or uncivil) disobedience of the people becomes larger than the ego of our 'betters'
That or someone nails down an ever changing number for how many XYZ we're prepared to tolerate.

After weeks of watching people with masks, even if they were effective, placing them only over the mouth, and not over the nose, completely defeats any effectiveness.
My favorite is a woman, with a mask under her nose, perusing the isles of a store with passel of children not wearing masks. She probably doesn't have any clue of how futile her effort was.
