The discussion shouldn’t be do face masks work. We have enough evidence now that they do. The discussion should be which face masks work best. People wearing fishnet “masks” are only being as ridiculous as they look.
Sure, not all cotton is created equal, but even a cotton mask from a solid piece of old t-shirt will provide a net benefit. It only won’t provide any benefit if it’s not worn properly (it needs to cover mouth and nose) or if it’s made really poorly.
Edit- also, social distancing adds a whole lot of additional protection if people are wearing a mask. For some reason, the people who I’ve come across that don’t want to wear a mask also don’t want to keep social distance.
