re: The only randomized control trial of cloth masks vs surgical masks

quote:

This study was looking at infection rates in health care workers in hospitals. They were gauging the use of masks as protection of the health care workers, not determining whether masks prevented an infected person from spreading the disease.

That's right. It was a test of health care workers who understand the proper protocol for any kind of mask.

So among this intelligent population, handling their cloth masks properly they were a dismal failure.

Now imagine the general population of idiots with their poorly fitted, imporperly worn, improperly handled, improperly sanitized masks and you have a recipe for spread not containment.

Masks are complete and utter bullshite and you only need to think about this and look around you to realize it.

Masks are a tool for politicians and a feel good measure for morons.
