12/n I honestly don't know what to say here. They're comparing the rate of myopia in a group of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 to the research findings of physical fitness of students from 1987 You can't draw any meaning from that!
13/n These two groups are so wildly different that it's entirely impossible to say whether the glasses had the slightest impact on anything at all, it's just very strange speculation
14/n Maybe glasses DO prevent COVID-19 transmission, but based on this research we have absolutely no idea if that's true
15/n The ABSOLUTE BEST you can say from this research is that it appears that fewer patients diagnosed with COVID-19 from a single hospital in Hubei had myopia than some high-school students in '87 It's not even about glasses!
