Stanford study: masks do not protect from COVID. actually worsens your health

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7680614/
Conclusion:
The existing scientific evidences challenge the safety and efficacy of wearing facemask as preventive intervention for COVID-19. The data suggest that both medical and non-medical facemasks are ineffective to block human-to-human transmission of viral and infectious disease such SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19, supporting against the usage of facemasks. Wearing facemasks has been demonstrated to have substantial adverse physiological and psychological effects. These include hypoxia, hypercapnia, shortness of breath, increased acidity and toxicity, activation of fear and stress response, rise in stress hormones, immunosuppression, fatigue, headaches, decline in cognitive performance, predisposition for viral and infectious illnesses, chronic stress, anxiety and depression. Long-term consequences of wearing facemask can cause health deterioration, developing and progression of chronic diseases and premature death.

Colorado. Used to live in mass.
If you’re in the Worcester area, go to Impact, they don’t require masks

But the media and government said we have to wear facemasks, what possible reason would they have to lie and mislead us?

I'm going to ignore logic and first hand experience because our overlords know best.

I don’t see any data on filtration rates, it doesn’t address the primary purpose of masks is to reduce covid droplet spread into the air, etc.

Forks make terrible spoons, but that doesn’t mean forks are ineffective.

The abstract has 5 grammar mistakes lmao.

“Is has been hypothesized that facemasks have compromised safety and efficacy profile and should be avoided from use. The current article comprehensively summarizes scientific evidences with respect to wearing facemasks in the COVID-19 era, providing prosper information for public health and decisions making.“

“Is has been hypothesized” (wut)

“Should be Avoided from use”

“Providing prosper information”

“Decisions making”

I assume anti maskers would be perfectly fine with surgeons not using a mask if they needed an operation. Obviously its just a scam that doesn't work

1) surgeons don’t operate on people with respiratory viruses
2) surgeons don’t go to work sick
3) masks and goggles are worn to protect the surgeon’s face and eyes from inadvertent bodily spray
4) your typical masktard doesn’t utilize proper donning and decon techniques before and after buying their processed junk at Ralph’s, as a surgeon does in a STERILE operating room.
5) protecting an open wound from spit is not the same as trying to stop a microscopic virus.

surgeons wear masks because they prevent the passage of germs from the surgeon's nose and mouth into the patient's open wounds and to protect the surgeon's face from sprays and splashes from the patient

ITT OP considers a "medical hypothesis" submission by a rando as a Stanford approved fact, and a bunch of other low iq miscers don't bother to look into it and clap in agreement.

You guys are so clueless I don't know if I should laugh or cringe.

The content doesn't matter.

All that's important is that it's in line with their views. Any expert that disagrees is wrong. Any rando that agrees is correct.

I’m not even for mask mandates anymore, get back to normal, I don’t care.

But you can’t say “look at this one state with no mask mandate, it’s cases are going down, therefore masks don’t work”

That’s not scientific, there’s multiple other variables involved besides masks, you need to ask the question “if every variable was held constant, would increasing the amount of masks worn by Texans, reduce the number of covid cases by even more?”

Not even for mandates or lockdowns, but any fellow STEM brah will agree with this logic.

The population size isn’t the issue.

I’m saying if you want to know how much one variable, like masks matter, you have to think about all other variables being held constant.

If everything about Texas was the same, would people wearing more masks reduce the covid rate even more or less?

Is Texas covid rate going down at this rate BECAUSE of the mask mandate being lifted or despite of it?

Masks work, doesn't take much to understand that they'd reduce the rate of the spread.

However, the question is... to what degree, and is it worth it?

Personally I think the lockdown has been a negative in other aspects of life easily 10 times more negative than if there was no lockdown at all
