Mask-wearing robustly effective in prevention of covid
Differential effectiveness of COVID-19 health behaviors: The role of mental health conditions in mask-wearing, social distancing, and hygiene practice
"Mask-wearing is robustly effective in the prevention of COVID-19 among individuals. However, social distancing and hygiene practice provide less significant protection among individuals with certain mental health conditions, suggesting the importance of prioritizing these individuals for additional preventive measures (e.g., vaccines targeting variants) and mitigation strategies (e.g., financial assistance, targeted mental health care, health education)."
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/hcs2.60
About a 20-25% reduction in adjusted odds ratio with masks.
The used logistic regression without stating who supervised it.
They got the data from the Healthy Minds Network and report no funding.

DAMN but JFC loves him some Rona!



It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife: the only friend who hasn't betrayed you, the only friend who won't be dead by sunup. Sleep tight mates, in your quilted chambray night shirts.

And speaking of masks, you dropped yours.

There isn’t evidence that Black Lives Matter protests have led to a noticeable increase in COVID-19 cases, despite early concerns from health officials.

Data were from Healthy Minds Network which surveyed a random sample of adults from 140 US universities from September 2020 to May 2021. The response rate was 14% in fall 2020 and 15% in winter/spring 2021, which is typical to alarge-scale online survey method

Point is absolutely none of you covid addicts have tried to set the record straight on any of that though.. have you. So come on wincel, put that big educated brain to good use and take them to school.
Seems to me as if that would be a better use of your time than using multiple alts to rack up 500 posts here everyday. No? I mean seeing as how passionate about covid you are.
Surely you're not afraid.. are you?

I take issue with how they entered the adherence data, reported as ordinal, as continuous/metric.
I don't think it would change the results, but the responses are factors. They could be treated as monotonic effects to align with current best practice.
It'd still be regression tho

But, using a seatbelt incorrectly doesn't mean seatbelts don't work.

This is a new and interesting critique though. Previously we saw that use of regression is suspect. Are we now suggesting any studies that use math are suspect?
