    Don't shoot the messenger. Stop taking things so personally dude.
    Dude, the "author" of the study is the foremost expert on the subject. This study is the gold standard.

        Exactly! And the authors of the study concluded that it's very difficult to to draw any firm conclusions.
        It's right there in the study.

            Virtually no-one wears them over here, but if you get stuck behind a face mask wearer in a shop, they're usually the sort of person who would buy a newspaper with a bag full of pennies, and once paid decide they want some chewing gum.

            So they're either stupid, awkward, or a bit of both.

              Same here. You don't see many wearing masks anymore. Still see the odd one walking down the street wearing one though. I never understood the reasoning behind that. Outside is where you are safest from airborne viruses.

                      You are safest outdoors, so why did they impose lockdowns, surely lockdowns increase the chance of spreading something.

                      Lockdowns were a psychological experiment, you can read about it here.

                        Sorry, I'm not a rabbit hole kinda guy.
                        Nobody stopped people from going outside during lockdown. They just didn't want people gathering in groups while outside. There is a distinction there.

                          I find it very curious that some folks used past studies to try to convince us that masks work. But now that the most compressive study has said those studies were flawed and that masks don't work, they ignore it. Interesting.

                            I find it interesting that someone will post a study without reading to the end and then simply use the information that agrees with their biases to try to make a point.

                              You're a silly man that can't admit that you were ever wrong.



                              “There is just no evidence that they” — masks — “make any difference,” -Tom Jefferson, the Oxford epidemiologist




                              But, wait, hold on. What about N-95 masks, as opposed to lower-quality surgical or cloth masks?


                              “Makes no difference — none of it,” said Jefferson

                              What about the studies that initially persuaded policymakers to impose mask mandates?

                              “They were convinced by nonrandomized studies, flawed observational studies.” - Tom Jefferson, the Oxford epidemiologist


                              Tom Jefferson



                              Dr. Tom Jefferson is a Senior Associate Tutor at the University of Oxford, a former researcher at the Nordic Cochrane Centre and a former scientific coordinator for the production of HTA reports on non-pharmaceuticals for Agenas, the Italian National Agency for Regional Healthcare.

                              Medically Trained Epidemiologist with Extensive Experience of HTA and Handling Huge Datasets
