So you think surgeries that are performed without medical masks, wouldn't have a higher infection rate?

I would say not, for airborne viruses. Those masks are to keep the doctor's sweat, hair, and saliva out of the patient.

I will!

$5 sez you have some data that just so happens to confirm your biases, and i bet there's also some data that says masking actually did help. Utterly pointless arguing this nonsense, in the end it always just turns out to be speed-runs to some tedious conspiracy theories.
