RE: Feb. 17 The View A discussion about the science of mask wearing in the time of Coronavirus must include this 'science': Transmission is based on these statistics: the accumulated humidity in the room created by the respiration of human beings. We have learned the hard way that this virus is more infective than most viruses encountered in our lifetime. Any 'scientific' challenge or discussion must include the statistics and facts about how the virus is transmitted. If you don't understand statistics, you don't understand science and are not qualified to speak as a scientist. Also, if our Intensive Care Units are overwhelmed, and our health care workers are failing, with their own health issues, we must also consider them.
