Why do surgeons use masks when performing surgery?
Are we all out performing surgery?
The reason for that by the way, is mainly to protect themselves from blood and other fluids squirting out of the body.
No, that's what face shields are for. Masks are to prevent the spread of disease.
Why do doctors and nurses wear face masks while treating COVID patients?
To prevent the spread of disease, you have to change the mask ever hour, when the spit dries out and the spores become individually motile.
Which would explain why many nurses and doctors were forced to reuse the same mask for an entire shift when there were shortages of PPE. (Hint, anything is better than nothing)
And while we may want to protect the vulnerable, we do not want to stop the spread to the young and healthy. It is only the quick spread that achieves herd immunity that can ever end any epidemic.
Never has any epidemic ever been ended by "flattening the curve".
I guess death does end pandemics.
Wrong.
No medical staff ever had to wear masks an entire day.
They get at least 4 breaks a day, and NEVER put the old mask from before break, back on again.
You are totally and completely misinformed.
At worst, used masks are re-sterilized and then reused.
Chemicals or heat can be used.
Covid-19 is trivial to kill just with UV.
You should look into this a little more.
There are no masks left in L.A. County's emergency stockpile
As personal-safety guidelines are weakened amid a global supply shortage, doctors and nurses worry about their own health.

Death is not what stops pandemics, since it can take months for the cytokine storm to actually kill someone.
All it takes to end any pandemic is immunity, and almost everyone recovers from covid-19 with immunity.
What do you think has stopped all pandemics?
Its has NEVER been "flattening the curve".
Not once has that ever succeeded.
You're going to kill millions needlessly if we remove social distancing and mask wearing. "Herd immunity" without a vaccine means more death, not less.
