To prevent hoarding, the surgeon general and the media have spread misinformation that masks won't protect you against the coronavirus. Studies show that surgical masks and N95 masks reduce the risk of infection with respiratory viruses! Please consider wearing masks in public.

No, I am member of a weird kind of mutant subspecies that is willing to think and decide for themselves. If you have a good study that contradicts me I am grateful, meanwhile I can point you at sources if you have not seen them.

And you imply I don’t think and decide for myself? How wonderfully presumptuous. I will not do your homework: since you cited nothing, but only gave your conclusion, it is impossible to have a rational scientific discussion with you.

Eg https://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2662657/ … (protecting against influenca infection), https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/49/2/275/405108 … (protecting others). Do you have a study that shows that masks are ineffective? This is no joking matter. Both anti mask propaganda in the US and hoarding will kill people.

You miss the point: you accused the surgeon general of intentional misinformation. That is the extraordinary claim for which you offer no evidence.

Is it really an extraordinary claim these days to accuse a top federal official of lying? It seems more like a 50-50 occurrence to me

I did not mean to accuse him of lying, just pointing out that the information was not correct. I am sure the SG does not want to kill people
