It was repeated today on the morning news, namely that the overwhelming consensus of researchers say the greatest threat is airborne, not through the touch.
To put it bluntly: wear the mask when in public!
The article quotes the CDC & others.When did CBS get their PhD in virology?

They are correct of course but wearing a mask does help reduced the spread of coronavirus if you have the disease and don't (yet) know it.

Did you read the article? They were quoting the CDC and other experts in the field. Most people refuse to believe when they're being lied to by the media.
I didn't ask about the cdc and others so are saying is CBS does not have a degree in virology..?

Not sure what you're getting at...
Corporations aren't eligible for degrees.
That myth about corporations being "persons" has gone to far, eh.
Whadda I win?Bingo...
MacIntyre notes that cloth masks — which people wash and reuse — are also common in Asian countries. She says there's no evidence to show they have any benefit, and her research suggests they "may actually be harmful," because infrequent washing and moisture retention can make cloth masks a breeding ground for pathogens.

Maybe actually check the date on that article.
Far as I can tell masks are never touted as a means of protection for the wearer. They're main purpose is to keep infected people from spreading it to everyone else.If a mask is that necessary, then why aren't 'essential employees' who have chosen not to mask up dying by the thousands? If mask are so effective, why aren't we forcing felons in prisons to wear them instead of releasing them into the streets?
A personal friend of ours contacted the virus and had to self-quarantine at home for two weeks. She had done everything recommended as far as preventing the infection. She wore the mask, use the sanitizers, had her groceries delivered--the whole nine yards. She thinks she may have contacted it at work; and out the 100 plus people she worked with only seven came down with covid. The others tested negative for infection and none have come down with the sickness since the initial 'outbreak'. Also, she had the symptoms for at least a week before she went to be tested, but the other members of her household tested negative for any virus and they ares still virus free. She is now back in the work force and she is an advocate for the mask. Although we totally respect her view, I have to stop myself from pointing out that she is a perfect example of why the mask is a total waste of time.

Edit: and if anything, your anecdote seems to support that.
