>>23532438All of the studies on masks are highly flawed (read: have multiple limitations), correlative at best (since they can't ethically test causation), and should not be used to influence public policy. The CDC itself says:
>The real-world effectiveness of face coverings to prevent acquisition of SARS-CoV-2 infection has not been widely studied.You're just in too deep to see such flaws, sadly. Don't take every study as word of god.
Also note that N95 masks actually do work but that thin cloth shit everyone has is all public theater. Not sure why anyone would defend it.
