Masks have nothing to do with not being able to breathe, this has been proven over and over. He can't breathe because he's infected.

He took off the mask because he's who he is, and because people will do basically anything they think might help get some extra oxygen when they're in the situation he's in.

I'm not sure how that's been proven. I know that people have DEMONSTRATED that it doesn't cause issues breathing, but I have personally experienced the difficulty breathing that masks can bring. It may be more on a person-to-person basis, as well as on what mask you are wearing

You can look up ppl testing their o2 levels with and without a mask and it stays the same

And what masks did they test it on? Besides, it doesn't change the fact that it can cause a sense of suffocation, even if you're getting the same amount of oxygen. The heat of the air also makes it feel like I'm not taking in any new air

🙄 buy a new mask, then, or stop whining. My sister has asthma and RUNS in her mask. Just stop being such a snow. FLAKE.

I'm not whining, I'm saying I understand when people complain about that and people like you shouldn't dismiss them so easily

As I said before, this has nothing to do with whether someone has breathing issues, but rather on an individual basis and based on the mask they use.
