while the antivaxx muppet and twerp like to pretend mask wearing is of no benefit during a global pandemic brought about by a virus that starts in the upper respiratory tract, It's always good to go back to basics to see the truth of the matter.

to get a gentle reminder of why wearing a mask is good for the individual and their community.

and so it was in an article published Aug. 1 on ABC News app entitled "Habitual mask-wearing is likely helping Japan, Singapore and South Korea bring daily Omicron deaths down, epidemiologists say.

Deakin University epidemiologist and associate professor Hassan Vally said as well as getting booster shots, wearing a mask was "one of the easiest things we can do" right now to help prevent transmission and to protect vulnerable people.

"With wearing masks and with mandates, it's reached this kind of emotionally charged position where it seems to be a symbol of other things," he said on ABC Radio.

"At the end of the day, it's a piece of fabric that you put over your nose and your mouth to act as a bit of a barrier to help us reduce your likelihood of being exposed to the virus or exposing other people to the virus. That's all it is."
