Biden's growing challenge:

Oh, I'm sorry you misunderstood my query - you do not have an obligation to know it.

Just kinda makes sense that people who could not care less about showing up in a mass crowd unmasked (remember super spreader events?) would care about wearing them anywhere else.

Well again. Wearing masks outside generally, was not an expectation as I recall though you're right, close quarters would make it a good idea. I do recall some wearing masks but the majority not.

It was a majority of Americans that saw the lack of efficacy in mask wearing - regardless of party.

What do you mean "saw"?
Because it's REALLY hard to see the efficacy of wearing a mask. If you're in a room with a mask with 100 people and 30 of them are sick (though you are unaware) and you don't get sick, you won't notice the efficacy of a mask because you may not be aware of how "well" it is working as it's maintaining a status quo.

Conversely, if you hug a relative who is sick and you're wearing a mask and they cough on you, you would think masks don't work.

Obviously, it was an airborne virus.

And this shows a great lack of understanding on your part on how the masks would still be effective.

No, it doesn't. I have had doctors and nurses tell me how ineffective the vast majority of the masks were that people used during the pandemic.

Yes but not on its own

Did they define "ineffective"? I DO know there were types of masks that were cheap that were not super useful.
