      Which is why smoking is banned in most public spaces and workplaces, and if I see someone smoking near me I get up and leave As long as there's a pandemic, the same rules should apply to going around without a maskhttps://twitter.com/Hilding_EU/status/1329561217975906307 …

      Cigarette smoking is responsible for more than 480,000 deaths per year in the United States, including more than 41,000 deaths resulting from secondhand smoke. You are welcome. 🙂 https://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/data_statistics/fact_sheets/fast_facts/index.htm …

      Mask do not stop this virus, people wish it would, but the scientific and empiric evidence is thin to say the least. Best defense to this virus (until vaccine is safe and available) will be every bodies immune system. Why do we not see a debate how to improve it?

      The disease is borne by the moisture in your digusting breath. If you slap a mask over your mouth and nose, you make it much harder for it to spread. You see it every year when it gets cold out, so I'm telling you right now - the masks work if people use them.

      You are free to believe what you want. Spanish Flu had the same hysteria here a 100 year old study: https://ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/pdfplus/10.2105/AJPH.10.1.34 … And here an article on the only RTC study on masks. https://www.medpagetoday.com/blogs/vinay-prasad/89778 … The efficacy is minimal. But maybe it's higher with a strong believe in it.

      RCTs of a population-wide measure like masks are impossible to ethically perform under most circumstances, and the Danish study admits it hardly proves anything since it could only happen at all at a time when the vast majority of the population wasn't masking

          That said, of course, if masks don't work, that's an argument for INCREASING social distancing and lockdowns, not DECREASING them Unless you also think that staying inside your house doesn't work and the virus will magically teleport into your body no matter what you do

          I do, in fact, think that to a large degree masks have in the long run enabled "lockdown fatigue" and this is a very bad sign Instagram stories showing 30 people hanging out at a house party thinking it's okay because they're all wearing masks make me very angry

          Ah and that proofs exactly what? That they work without proof that they work? So we just have to believe it then?

          There is, famously, no such thing as a RCT proving parachutes work to decrease fatalities from jumping out of an airplane, due to the ethical difficulty of randomly assigning subjects to the control group Does that mean parachutes are BS? Would you be happy to jump without one?

          Worth noting that the Danish study is also focusing on how well masks protect THE WEARER (tentatively 25-50% reduction, is the conclusion I heard) when their primary function is to limit potential spread to OTHERS, something lots of other studies have already proven they can...
