Not quite mosquitoes, more like marbles but absolutely spot on. I walked out of a dr office 2 months ago when they insisted I put on a mask and I asked them to explain the science to me. The reply was simply “because it’s policy”. My rather loud reply as I walked out of th office for all in the waiting room could hear was “I’m done with people telling me what to do with nothing more than “because I said so”. I’m over 60, not a child and no longer have tolerance for stupid sheep.”
My entire life I had been easy going and trying to get along with people and trying hard to be nice. That all stopped 6 years ago.
While the graphic may be accurate with sizes, the issue is that the virus particles don’t float through the air, they are attached to larger water droplets but still capable of going through a mask.
If the water droplets are floating through the air, how large are they?
Unless a person is wearing an N-95 mask that has been fit tested, he will be breathing in particles that are 0.3 microns or smaller. Dust masks that most people were wearing, that do not provide an airtight seal, are not even very good at screening for dust.

Masking was a metric showing level of control.
Excellent! Thanks.
Any chance you have something as effective that illustrates the harm of wearing a mask?

Droplets don't matter when a virus is aerosolized-even if droplets are stopped, virus is still airborne and travels right on through
