Default Tony Fauci on masks

The WORST science is a bunch of pompous ass holes
standing around in white lab coats pull things out
their ears. Fauci certainly qualifies for that
criticism.


Sure, far better to rely on the advice and wisdom of the lying evil orange clown.
There is your pompous, ignorant, ahole.
Like when he said that he had asked govt officials to try using household
disinfectants to cleanse people's lungs and that they had said yes, they would.
We know you'll just deny Trump said that, but as usual, we have him on video.



The BEST science is Randomized Clinical Trial
which use the Double Blind technique.

Currently, there is no science that shows masks do
anything except help with social anxiety.


The only anxiety is among the trumptards that have chosen to turn wearing a simple mask
into another nasty, divisive, **** show. So glad I'm no longer a Republican. I have no anxiety
wearing a mask, I do so to protect both myself and those that I encounter. I'm not a selfish,
inconsiderate ahole.







Here is
a recent study:


But it's not double blind, which you just said was the only thing that's any good.



Effectiveness of Adding a Mask Recommendation to Other Public Health
Measures to Prevent SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Danish Mask Wearers

https://www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M20-6817


And here is their conclusion:

Conclusion:

"The recommendation to wear surgical masks to supplement other public health measures did not reduce the SARS-CoV-2 infection rate among wearers by more than 50% in a community with modest infection rates, some degree of social distancing, and uncommon general mask use. The data were compatible with lesser degrees of self-protection."

So even your own cite doesn't support what you claim.
And note that they only looked at whether people who wore masks got infected or not, they did
not have any way of measuring if wearing masks CREATED LESS INFECTIONS IN OTHERS,
which is possibly the biggest mode of protection.





But things are not going not get any better as the
incoming administration is immersed into Lysenkoism
and Gleichschaltung.


Wow, you accept that Trump's done. Dear Leader must be very disappointed,
he was counting on people like you.

Meanwhile, since the election, with Covid infections rapidly rising, hospitals starting to over
flow, 410K Americans dead, Trump has been busy as usual, with his current list of personal
grievances. They did a count of his tweets since election day, 87% were his sore loser
lies, whining about the election. Only 6% were about Covid and I'd bet just about all of those
were ones where he pats himself on the back.
