An organization that hypothesized that HIV doesn't cause AIDS has absolutely no credibility in my book.
You might as well have posted a study/article from the National Enquirer, DailyMail, or Bleacher Report
Seriously. Even the most basic search reveals that this website is full of pseudoscience.

There are 70 links to several studies in the article, they didn't do the studies, they compiled the data

I get my mask science from countries that have handled COVID better than the US:
Public Health Agency of Sweden

The scientific evidence around the effectiveness of face masks in combatting the spread of infection is weak, which is why different countries have arrived at different recommendations.
Some countries have chosen to view face masks as a form of security and hope that universal use of face masks will reduce the risk of infection spreading from people who are in the incubation period, before the symptoms are apparent, or who have such mild or unspecific symptoms that they do not consider themselves ill.
The Public Health Agency of Sweden does not recommend the general use of face masks, as a face mask that itches or slips down below the nose may mean a person is regularly touching their mouth, eyes or nose with their hands, which can increase the risk of the infection spreading.
Use of a facemask may also encourage people with mild symptoms to go out into the community, which might increase the spread of infection.
The Public Health Agency of Sweden is constantly assessing the state of knowledge in this area and reviews new information from various sources.
