> [@needscoffee](#): > > I have an awfully hard time seeing how something with open air flow on both sides and bottom is functionally any different than holding a clear page protector in front of your face. Or different than a cashier sitting behind a plexiglass shield but not wearing a mask. They won’t do a good job at blocking aerosols, especially with time. However, they must block larger droplets that would have otherwise traveled 3 or maybe even 6ft. Many of those droplets evaporate and can turn into aerosols. So I’m thinking that it does block quite a bit. I remember reading that the person who tested whether people are protected by shields using a simulator is now testing how much shield protect others. Maybe that will be out soon. ---

I think confusion between carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide is common. And I’ve seen a lot of people on Facebook concerned about masks trapping carbon dioxide. ---

I do realize that. That’s why I noted his retort was second-grade. And when did you start speaking for the others here at SDMB. Were you voted into some kind of office? Hey I got an idea–why don’t you go fuck yourself? ---

Nope. Not at all. You sure are pretty quick to label folks as trolls just because they disagree with someone. I can see why most folks here can’t stand you. As a note–you’re the biggest troll and annoying asshole here at SDMB. They should give you an award for that. ---
