that’s it? an opinion piece highly suggesting that masks might work if the right mask is worn and worn properly?
care to rebuttal the fatalities vs population %? care to explain why we’ve never masked children for far more deadly communicable diseases to children in the past?
or is this where you quietly disappear from the thread?
Oh yeah, there it is

That study is taking into account perfect world scenarios. Kids are germ factories and that study fails to account for little Timmy licking his pencil before sharing it with his friend.

So you are conceding he is correct?

there what is? refute the points i’ve made.
i also know that article is garbage because it takes the time and several sentences to take a shot at Red State governors for simply mandating that “mask your kid if you want to. don’t mask your kid if you want to. The decision is yours, not ours”
but, by all means continue telling me it’s my bias getting in the way when you linked a clearly biased opinion piece. well done.

Studies done in wider communities beyond schools give the strongest real-world evidence that masks stop COVID’s spread. An international team of researchers conducted a randomized controlled trial involving nearly 350,000 people across 600 villages in rural Bangladesh. Half of the villages got free cloth or surgical masks and a promotional campaign encouraging their use. The other half did not. The researchers found that the intervention significantly curbed coronavirus transmission, especially in villages that received surgical masks. The findings appeared in early September in a preprint paper that is now being considered for publication by the journal Science.
1% reduction is the strongest real world evidence

Scientific American is a left wing hack publication.

NO question about it. Just take a gander at their opinion page to drive that home. The fact that the article itself began political should be enough right there.

99.9% of the masks being worn today absolutely don't do this at all.

i’ll be happy to poke holes in another biased opinion article you found shortly.

My thoughts on this are from the 32 years I spent in education...do masks work? According to studies, cloth masks are 10-20% effective with those, up to N95, being significantly more effective, up to 80-90%. Masks are for the collective good which is a concept that we've abandoned over the last few years. Schools are one big petri dish. Every germ, fungi, bacteria and the like are brought into the classroom from all over the world. Teachers with compromised immune systems, fellow students with compromised immune systems, and the support staff with compromised immune systems are all subject to infection. It's a simple thing to wear a mask. I retired in part due to the fact that the political factions of both the left and the right are dismantling public education. As for the psychological effects, from a teaching standpoint I'd be much more concerned by the parent than the child...

Fair point. That post is probably more accurate for the Poli Board. Definitely some spillage to this board, though.

I do agree with this.. Well with the risk of driving in general. Even before Covid, there were/are a lot of things people are scared to do, yet get in their vehicle without thinking twice.
That's why I don't understand people who are scared to fly. You are more likely to get seriously injured or killed on the way to the airport than you are in the sky.

You can't help demoralized people. Even when presented with evidence they will ignore it.
