If you are were a mask while not sick, you are delusional. It is hygiene theater. Unless it is a properly fitted N95 mask you are doing nothing than giving yourself false security. Having a venue specifically for the immuno-compromised is fine and all but if there are not enough of them to keep the business afloat, boycotting them wont change that. Maybe having specific events hosted at the bar would work better than expecting everyone at all times to cater to a specific demographic. Also the sorts of people that dont wash their hands and cover their mouths with their elbows while coughing dont care and infact actively try to negate the efforts of others.
Cloth face masks were found to have significantly poorer filtering performance than medical/surgical masks and N95 masks, but only if non-cloth masks were properly fitted. Our results illustrate the necessity ofusing well-fitting medical/surgical or N95-typed masks to prevent viral spread, although some allowance should be made in circumstances where higher compliance with cloth mask mandates are expected.
Who said it’s not a well-fitting N95? I don’t mask for appearances. It’s snug around my nose so my glasses stay clear.
As for the bar, there’s obviously a large supportive community or they wouldn’t be trying to get the bar to continue the ongoing protocol, or their boycott wouldn’t threaten the bar’s finances. Anyone trying to negate the efforts is gonna regret angering the lesbians.
I don’t know about you but I find wearing a mask helps remind me about washing my hands before touching my face.
I do think it could lower profits in a bar because you’d be more conscious about drinking and eating.

N95’s are considered the best but even a cloth mask is actually better than no mask. Don’t make perfection the enemy of good.
Cloth masks protect others from you, they do next to nothing to protect you from others.

Obviously it’s not large enough, or the bar wouldn’t be going under.
I’m sorry, this your idea of being supportive? Throwing a tantrum and threatening because you don’t get your way is support.
