Yes, I think there is a strong correlation between viral dose and symptom severity. There are many victims among the medical personnel. This indicates that there is a connection between heavy viral doses and severe symptoms.

Cloth masks do protect the wearer – breathing in less coronavirus means you get less sick

And here's her paper in J Gen Intern Med:

Masks Do More Than Protect Others During COVID-19: Reducing the Inoculum of SARS-CoV-2 to Protect the Wearer

Sooooo, if the right-wingers would simply wear a damned mask, their open-up and herd immunity arguments would be at least somewhat defensible ... getting out, getting infected, *with* masks as a way to increase our collective bio-defense, relatively safely.
