Should I listen to those with first-hand experience or Some Guy on the Intertubes?

A lot of people don't know how to read papers or how to interpret statistics. This leads to a lot of misunderstandings. I'm no expert but did help my ex study for her BS/MS/PhD in Psychology - heavy on test design, administration, and interpretation.

The masks have had several unexpected benefits.
1) I haven't actually gotten a cold since this whole thing started. Used to be I'd get at least 1 in the spring and 1 in the fall, but not this year!
2) When I have bad breath, I'm the only one impacted. Not unrelated, I now carry mints.
3) People look 50% better, myself included
4) I can immediately tell who the dumb ones are because the mask goes under the nose. This makes them easier to avoid!
