I wear a mask. Masks are fine. But a howler “study” like this is so blatantly click bait and political that it worsens our science trust problem and demeans an important journal. #covid19

Yes, and I’ve met such people myself. This study probably won’t change their minds, but I don’t see the point in deriding it as clickbait.pic.twitter.com/EWH5Ng4fhC
