    Kaganovich didn't supervise the Saint Petersburg metro (which didn't even open until two years after Stalin's death). But your question is duly noted. :)

    The Russians didn't have a choice in what kind of leadership they had.

    What's our excuse?

    (I'm reading a 909-page book on Stalin --- part II of III --- so I'm about Kaganoviched out right now).

    Masks don't do squat to actually protect people and they create a warm, moist germ factory around the wearer's mouth and nose.

    That is a very good point.

    If you think about it, however, you are still protecting other people.

    What people are told masks are "supposed to do" and what they actually do have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

    Germs thrive and grow in warm, moist conditions. Do you want to create a perfect germ-growing factory right at your nose and mouth?

    A mask helps protect others. I will send you some articles about this.

    Seems to me they need to do a little better job of explaining the science behind the mask and its apparent one-way effectiveness.

    The whole "virus can go over, around and through it to reach you, but your germs won't go over, around and through it to reach others" on the surface sounds pretty damn suspect.
