Should you wear two masks, as Dr. Anthony Fauci has recently recommended?

Not if you’re wise, says an infectious disease expert.

Epidemiologist Michael Osterholm, a professor at the University of
Minnesota and a Biden transition team advisor, made his comments both in
an interview with WCCO Radio last week and also on Meet the Press on
Sunday.

The professor, head of his university’s Center for Infectious Disease
Research and Policy, “said Fauci’s recommendation to wear two masks at
once to stop viral infections made no epidemiological sense,” The
College Fix, writes, reporting on Osterholm’s WCCO appearance.

Citing The New American as a reference source is problematic if you're
trying to influence the entire political spectrum of potential readers.
See:

Hmmm, "Overall, we rate the New American Right Biased based on story
selection that always favors the right and Mixed for factual reporting
due to rejecting the consensus of science and poor sourcing techniques."

But why would I want to read anything that might disagree with what I
already think? I read for pleasure and that's not pleasure.
