The messaging has been so messed up
Avoid risk if you can.
Minimize risk if you can't avoid it.
Risk:
Outdoors << Indoors
Masked < Unmasked
Distanced < Packed
Fewer people < More people
Short time < Long time
No single thing will eliminate risk, but risk can be dramatically reduced by taking multiple of the measures above (moving outdoors, wearing masks, limiting attendance and time).

It makes reference to the following "swiss cheese" model of risk reduction
