Starting each post the same, ending each post the same, wearing a vented mask while patting yourself on the back and claiming you're doing something... you're clearly big on routine, ya? Makes sense, actually. Adherence to repetition, routine, and ritual does seem to be a trait seen in those with your obvious malady.

No one is telling you to wear a mask all day, every day. Just at work, in crowded places, etc. You, like dentists and surgeons, aren't going to lose brain cells over that.

Wearing masks is fine yet we all touch the same dirty keypad at the store.
Surface contamination is the issue.

I think the OP has lost those brain cells just thinking about it.
But the OP is just propaganda anyway, not to be taken seriously.

You don't need science here. You just need some common sense, some basic observational skills, and a willingness to divorce political views from matters that are in no way political.
That's why I often point out how irrational it is to shut down a nation over a virus that kills no more people than contagious pneumonia does. There was never such draconian lockdown measures taken over pneumonia, or the Flu.

Want an example of brain-cell loss from someone who could be very influential in several months?
Joe Biden says, when he's President, he will sign an Executive Order to make everyone in America, starting at age 1, wear a mask in public places.

I don't know the political breakdown, but top health and political authorities in various states are mandating that masks be worn, even when the number of COVID-19 Hospitalizations and Deaths are declining. Here in Democrat-controlled Illinois, wearing a facemask is required, through all 4 phases of reopening the state.
Presidential Candidate Joe Biden said yesterday that we will probably have to wear masks for at least another year, as a "new normal", in order to protect ourselves and others.
All the emphasis and mandates regarding wearing a face-mask, comes from the same "people" who shut down the country over a virus that kills only 1.4% of the people who contract it.
Therefore, it's obvious that "caring about our well-being", is not why political/medical/media authorities want us to wear face-masks for at least another year.
After seeing a medical graphic earlier today showing how masks decrease O2 (Oxygen) levels, while simultaneously increasing CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) levels in the body, it occurred to me that wearing masks long-term, damages the brain....making us dumber and less resistant to orders from authority!
Sure enough, there has been quite a bit of research on the subject, due to so many complaints of mental and physiological problems from workers in careers where masks are worn a lot. (Medical, Painting, Construction, etc..)
Findings Summary from a Study on N-95 face masks:
Full Study: www.oatext.com...=0
The results show that above 60% of inspired air is respired air in case I (wearing a mask), compared to less than 1.2% in case II (not wearing a mask).
In conclusion, the N95 respirator trapped respired air within the respirator which increased the VOF of respired air during inspiration. This might be one of the major contributors to elevated carbon dioxide level while wearing N95 respirator.
MOST IMPORTANTLY...This study explains what happens to us after repeated stints of Carbon Dioxide(CO2)/less Oxygen(O2) Inhalation:
Full Analysis at: medium.com...
Participants were tested on their cognitive abilities each day at about 3 pm. They were given real life situations (an example of a situation: if you were to be the mayor of the town what changes would you bring to your town) and the answers were later analyzed using software. The nine parameters that the participants were tested were:
• The ability to make decisions at any given time
• The capability to make decisions that achieved the desired goal
• The capacity to pay attention to surroundings
• The capability of completing given tasks
• The capacity to respond to an emergency
• The ability to gather information
• The ability to use the gathered information for the given goals
• The capacity to make decisions using a variety of options along with multiple dimensions
• The capacity of complex thinking
The results of the study were amazing.
Participants experiencing the elevated CO2 levels were found to have significant difficulty with their decision making abilities and thinking capabilities.
So what is the reason behind the impairments of the cognitive ability?
Increased level of CO2 in the blood decreases the cerebral metabolism of oxygen. In simple words, the brain becomes oxygen deprived and has an impact on our thinking abilities.
Carbon dioxide dissolves in our blood and reacts with the water in our blood to create carbonic acid. This, in turn, dissolves into ions of hydrogen and bicarbonate. If there is an increase in the concentration of hydrogen ions in our blood the blood acidity level increases and creates electrolyte imbalance, causing decline in intellectual performance.
With increased CO2 levels, a decrease in the IQ by even 5 points will bring a lot more people into the ‘mentally handicapped’ range, unless corrective action is taken immediately.
Another tip-off that the "powers in charge" are working together to dumb us down, is how Google does not let you see the above articles unless you filter out (not show) any search results after 12/31/2019. All the articles/studies this year describe how great face masks are for us! No ill effects whatsoever.
Word to the wise...If there are rules/laws mandating face masks where you live, only wear it when necessary. Save those brain cells. Keep your independent critical-thinking abilities in tip-top shape! (We will need them if our leaders push things too far.)

Serious questions .
Do you believe everything you read ?
If no why peddle this crap ?
If yes ....why ?

Interesting, so you have decided which media to absorb and which media to ignore, all based on your understanding of the information you are presented with.
