re: Stanford study says masks are ineffective, have devastating health consequences

It’s my opinion that masks haven’t prevented the spread of this virus. Science doesn’t have to be molecular in level. Data analysis is science too and the data has shown no to worse outcomes in highly masked areas.

Are the health consequences the same for health care workers who have always had to wear them for work? If not, why?
Nobody was wearing a mask all day every day.

Before the pandemic, can you recall a time your doctor wore a mask in your presence when he/she wasn't on their way to surgery?
That is primarily who I'm talking about. Also dentists wear them. Wearing a mask has been a normal part of the job for a lot of Healthcare workers for a long time. So if this study is legit, wouldn't they be at risk as well?

Also...my dad was diagnosed with AML back in 2017. In order to enter the AML clinic, we had to sanitize our hands and put on a mask. Every time we left the clinic for any reason, we'd have to replace our mask with a new one because we were leaving a sterile environment.
How often do you replace your mask?

The author makes quite a few hypothetical leaps in the study - which may or may not flesh out. After all the article is titled, "a health hypothesis."
You added the "devastating" part to your title for attention and with hopes of having people align with your view.
I'm the first to say, masks do not need to be a permanent or even normal part of our lives. I feel bad for children who are growing up and see it as normative like putting on a shirt or shoes.
Also, I read most of the article and many of the impacts are from "chronic" hypoxia, but I'm unsure the length of time that the author sees as chronic nor did I read any of the cited studies. I think the psychological effects are a leap but I see the point about communication and social relationships.
All said, we've been in masks for much of a year....it's soon time to make them a thing of the past.

No. Because they would take their mask off as soon as they were done with their work. They then replace it with a brand new mask when they start working again.

Show Me a study done on masks that is peer reviewed and it works over and over the same. You cant because there isn't any. Masks don't stop viruses, especially cloth masks. You have to be an idiot to believe anything the government agencies tell you. Have some common sense and quit being a dumb arse.

You're latching onto to some hypothesis that hasn't even been peer reviewed dude

It contains reviews of several studies. But we all know you only accept the science results you agree with.

You are now making an argument about the effectiveness of wearing masks for covid. Arguing that masks are ineffective for this virus is one thing. But to argue their long term health consequences is another. Your study says it's dangerous. So I would think that'd apply to traditional uses of masks as well. But I'm genuinely asking because I could be wrong

It's common knowledge that while not completely effective non N95 masks do cut-down on the spread but sure man whatever you say

Who are the frickheads downvoting OP? You must be so stupid that you won't listen to reason. You are so blinded by politics that you will disagree with anything that doesn't fit your agenda.

Gotcha. So the health risk is the improper use of wearing them. That actually does make some sense

Glad we got Dr Faucci here to explain muh science to us.

It's not crazy to say prolonged mask use increases the risk of respiratory issues, even for doctors and dentists. That's why they use them how they use them. Why don't medical workers wear them 100% of the time at work?
