Bill Nye perfectly shut down anti-maskers with an incredibly simple TikTok video

Bill Nye has perfectly shut down anti-maskers with an incredibly simple TikTok video which proves why face coverings help to reduce the spread of Covid-19.

The CDC recommends wearing a mask when coming into contact with people outside your household to keep you and others safe during the ongoing pandemic.

But despite this recommendation, there are still people out there who believe that wearing a mask is not for the greater good.

Enter Bill Nye...

Check out Bill Nye's very simple TikTok post below:

"Here's a map of the United States. The red ink shows where people are wearing masks," Bill Nye began.

"The black ink shows where people are getting sick with coronavirus. I hope you can see, the fewer the masks, the more the sick.

"And there's a perception that the virus can travel through the fibers of a mask, like this red dot," Bill continues, as he pokes a red-tipped pencil through a pasta strainer to demonstrate the flawed "scientific" beliefs of anti-maskers.

He then demonstrates that this is simply not how the virus works.

"Because viruses don't travel by themselves," Bill says. "No, they travel in little droplets of spit and snot. And the fibers [of the mask] are a tangle."

Bill showed three fake "spitballs" going through a board with "tangles" in it and how it immediately stopped them all.

"So when the droplet gets into the fibers of the mask, it gets trapped," Bill says. "This is not that hard to understand, everybody. That's why we have rules about wearing a mask.

The 'Science Guy' then concluded his video by urging people to follow guidance about the wearing of masks.

"Now, you know about rules. You pay taxes on the whole road, but you only get to drive on one side at a time. Otherwise..." he then mimicked two cars exploding.

"So everyone, please, wear a mask. Thank you."

This is not the first time that Bill Nye has put his scientific skills to good use during the pandemic, and earlier this year, he also demonstrated the effectiveness of facemasks by attempting to blow out a candle while wearing one.
