He said "Hey smart people". Already excludes a large swatch of the American population. Who left?

Good video. Needs a follow up on proper mask hygiene in similar layman's terms. Besides the mask not covering their nose, I see people touching the outside of the mask to scratch their nose, or pull it down under their chin. Once you are in public space, that mask should be considered hazardous material. Don't don't touch the outside material unless you are some place you can immediately wash your hands after.

Now, now, as it was explained on a show about the effectiveness of the Lincoln Project, we should be using this information as if it was shockingly new. Now give the assholes who wouldn't wear a mask before a new reason that was totally unknown before to redeem themselves without looking foolish. Its very important to their egos. So be nice.

So true. The real target of this info actively evades the info. Its like Fox News trying to convince their viewers that Hillary is a corrupt pedophile profiting from the Uranium One deal. The viewers are learning nothing new and the people they want to hear it aren't listening.

Maybe if those people can be convinced that masks stop the spread of science they'd finally be convinced...to stick it to the libs obviously.

Some dumbasses (lets call them "conservatives") have been saying that 'masks don't work' because covid is so small that it can go through the holes of the mask, but this show shows that covid is often trapped in liquid molecules and masks prevent those molecules from spraying all over the place.

What the fuck is wrong with you. Gettin' all sciency and shit.

COVID-19 is a conspiracy to hurt Trump's re-election. Hoax, motherfucker.

Subscribe to that channel (I am on YouTube). I don't watch it as much as I should (I tend to go awhile then binge watch a bunch of them).

Also check out the other PBS affiliated channels like that (I don't recall all the names and some of them went on hiatus or stopped like Gross Science and Ideal Channel - he now does the Reasonably Sound podcast).

Actually, just the fact it came from PBS means it's all fake news. Trumpers won't even look at or acknowledge it.

Science is not going to convice these people. They'll need some authority they hold in respect to talk to them or they need to be tricked by some silly Facebook page.

Stupid people see masks as a political statement. The rest of us recognize them for what they really are, an IQ test.

So if it was Conservative funded, it would be "real news"?

serious question.

I don't expect a serious answer though to preface this.

I agree, and also would say that BEFORE you touch the mask use hand sanitizer. It took a little while, but the self control i've learned when my nose or mouth has an itch is not something I would have ever thought possible.
