What a waste of money! It was proven over 70 years ago that the virus enters via the ear canal but shot down by the hierarchy. New studies are proving this 70 year old theory. Anyone got any stats for catching a virus wearing a mask or not wearing one??Trust me the masks do NOTHING. Stick some cotton wool in your ears much cheaper and better and wash your hands.
