Another example of the over-simplification & social virtue of mask wearing leads to an increase of risky behavior. An accurate understanding would lead to wearing the mask correctly & avoiding those not wearing masks instead of confronting, yelling at, & touching them.

This is not an anti-mask-wearing thread. Just the opposite. It's a wear you're mask property WHILE ALSO being aware of & mitigating the remaining risk.

This is one of my favorite examples. Don't get me wrong, the virus costume is awesome, but this sort of demonstration reinforces the false idea that social distancing isn't important so long as you're wearing a mask. https://twitter.com/TheWorldOfFunny/status/1287461362130735104
I personally find this "dance" almost as disturbing as the blatant disregard for social distancing. https://twitter.com/RevoWatch/status/1285102294154063872
The mob trying to intimidate / threaten someone to make a gesture is, by far, the most disturbing aspect of this clip but it joins this thread bc the mob understands the point of wearing a mask as well as they understand freedom of speech. https://twitter.com/KunkleFredrick/status/1298344285079838720?s=19
