and the problem here at this point, is that if you look at the crowd just at the Rose Garden event, if you had one, very garulous un-masked and infected super-spreader there and even if you wore a mask, but it was anything short of an N95 (or you were in a hazmat suit), your chances of infection would still be "HIGH". 
This is apparently what may have happened to Tillis.
The whole masking issue is for when you don't know if you are infectious or not, so if you wear a mask, you limit spread of larger, infectious droplets coming from yourself, IF you happened to actually be infected. But if someone who is infectious doesn't wear one at all, then all bets are off for anyone near them, masked (without an N95) or unmasked.
