Our track record dealing with covid shows us that our approach was largely unsuccessful. Masking must be enforced, not suggested. This is the only effective solution.
I tend to agree, but realistically who is going to enforce it? You've got to take into consideration the impact the constant stream of conflict has on low level employees who end up responsible for this enforcement. For those who want to protect themselves, N95 masks are highly effective when used properly.

Read it. Then read it again.
Love seeing your dumb ass post the same redacted study over and over and over again.
It’s not redacted you dumb ass.
You need to reread it more carefully.
“I know you are but what am I.” Ok. Maybe try posting something substantive that argues towards something useful.
