If there were an unlimited supply of surgical masks that would make sense. If you wearing a mask deprives actually sick people of wearing one then you are still worse off then not wearing one.

Imagine if everyone didn't just accept this lie and we retooled factories 2 months ago

When you sell to the public to protect themselves they can fund a lot more than a hospital and maintain it for long periods of use.

Other than just letting people all die off and getting herd immunity any possible solution will involve everyone wearing masks.

We have a year more of this, there is still time to change direction.

Good advice 1 year too late.
