Screw loves and their mandatory mask #### . Another 1 bites the dust.

I love science that's why i hate that you twist it to suit your agenda.

If all Corona virusses are the same why did the same measures they used against SARS or MERS not stop Covid 19?
Plenty off countries faught SARS and won.
So why did those countries end up in the same #### as us?
If as you say all Corona virusses are the same?

 

I'm not the one twisting a study to say something it's not. You are. Cloth masks simply do not work against viruses. There has yet be be another study to disprove this.

But I'm done arguing with an ostrich, Just be thankful there are people questioning the government and forcing some accountability. Once you decide to pull your head out of the sand there will still be a country around for you to try and ruin some other way.

 

How old are you?
You want to act like you are in kindergarden?
I answered with arguments without belitteling anyone.

 

I will be more thankfull if i don't get Covid 19.

 

That is dated March 20. It's 4 months old. Maybe you should read something more current.

This is from July 14 of this year.

Americans are increasingly adopting the use of cloth face masks to slow the spread of COVID-19, and the latest science may convince even more to do so.

In an editorial published today in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), CDC reviewed the latest science and affirms that cloth face coverings are a critical tool in the fight against COVID-19 that could reduce the spread of the disease, particularly when used universally within communities. There is increasing evidence that cloth face coverings help prevent people who have COVID-19 from spreading the virus to others.

“We are not defenseless against COVID-19,” said CDC Director Dr. Robert R. Redfield. “Cloth face coverings are one of the most powerful weapons we have to slow and stop the spread of the virus – particularly when used universally within a community setting. All Americans have a responsibility to protect themselves, their families, and their communities.”

This review included two case studies out today, one from JAMA, showing that adherence to universal masking policies reduced SARS-CoV-2 transmission within a Boston hospital system, and one from CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR), showing that wearing a mask prevented the spread of infection from two hair stylists to their customers in Missouri.

 

The study was done in 2011 and it was a study of use by healthcare workers in an institutional setting and constant contact where aerosolisation is a significant and continuous concern, not use by well community members for infrequent (passing) contact.

BTW, from the same authors...

In the community, masks appeared to be effective with and without hand hygiene, and both together are more protective.

The study suggests that community mask use by well people could be beneficial, particularly for COVID-19, where transmission may be pre-symptomatic. The studies of masks as source control also suggest a benefit, and may be important during the COVID-19 pandemic in universal community face mask use as well as in health care settings.

This study mentions that one of it's limitations is not having a "no mask" group. Its also about healthcare workers, not the general public.

It also says "The study design does not allow us to determine whether medical masks had efficacy or whether cloth masks were detrimental to HCWs by causing an increase in infection risk".

What I took away from this study is that Healtch care workers should be wearing medical grade masks.


This study concludes that cloth masks shluld be used as a last resort, but they're better than nothing.

You do know this guy is not a scientist. He is a writer and what do writers get paid to do?
A proportion of COVID-19 survivors are likely to suffer from long-term health problems, but the actual risks are still unknown

 

Well up and at it, I’m going to work. Maskless. The horror!!
