I hate to tell all these folks wearing masks on my flight that they only help to prevent you from infecting others. They do nothing to prevent you from inhaling airborne pathogens.

They do protect you from droplet infections. What are you on about?

Putting them on correctly isn’t hard to do at all and washing your hands regularly shouldn’t be a challenge either.

Good old hand washing

With all the hand wringing over their use, you have to wash your hands regularly

I hate to tell that they do protect you in certain situations, not necessarily against airborne pathogens, but if somebody sneezes or incessantly coughs near you, it does safeguard you from the droplets.

Ever think maybe they’re being cautious in case they actually do have it and want to limit spreading to others.

Still the same. They are arguing that you have a lower chance of infecting others. And even that is doubtful. Thanks for playing.

I have a game I love to play at the airport. I find someone who has the most vague resemblance to someone famous and then insist they are that person.

Like "Oh my God, you're Tom Hanks! I love so many of your movies and I think you are great and so funny in interviews. How are you feeling? I heard you had covid?"

Guy who very very vaguely resembles Tom Hanks insists he isn't. Then I keep insisting he is.

This is a fun way to pass time during layovers.
