The Danish study
replied 1241d
The danish study studied the efficiency of surgical masks on the wearer, with everybody claiming for months they do NOT protect the wearer from others, but others from the wearer. BS

It doesn't make sense for masks to work only one-way. Either they work both ways or not at all.

If someone needs to wear a mask to protect themselves from a world of risk
then they are living on the wrong planet.
replied 1241d
Pretty straightforward. Cloth masks don't protect 100%; they just dramatically reduce the amount of exhaled "plume". N95s filter out the dust&mist that virus rides in on.

Thanks for proving you're pulling your "knowkedge" out of your ass. Plonk !

There are dozens more. It's clear you are not well informed but highly opinionated and, I'll wager, likely to have been unmasked in public many times in the past year.

Yes I have been out in public without a mask and I will continue to do so. I'm a human being, not a sheep.

Wanker. That's what people think when they see you out with no mask. Selfish antisocial cunt. Middle of a health crisis and this fucking fairy wants to be special by not wearin a mask

I live my life without fear. Anyone scared of the virus should stay home and not open the door.

Funny how you dipshits who think the entire world is conspiring against them in some grand plot by secret group led by B Gates to inject them with a microchip claim others are scared !

“Manslaughterer” is what I think.
“A man shooting a gun randomly, no idea if it’s loaded”.

At least rapists’ victims are alive afterwards

Do me a favor. Go to your local hospital -- doesn't matter where you are -- and chat with any nurse that works there. Maybe she can introduce you to some more not-sheep
replied 1241d
And therefore unless you have been tested you have no idea whether you are an asymptimatic carrier. Would you shoot a gun into a crowd if you had NO IDEA if it was loaded?
Disgusting

Anyone scared of the virus should stay home and not open the door. Don't tell me how to live my life.

Lol. No I wouldn't shoot a gun into a crowd. That's a terrible analogy. The survival rate for the virus is around 99.8%.

replied 1240d
Thinking about it more, that has to be the dumbest analogy I have ever heard.

And another: surgical masks reduce emission by 90% and unvented N95 by 64% during speaking and coughing compared to no mask

If you think masks work then wear one. But don't force others to wear a mask (muzzle), especially when the virus isn't that deadly.

Your studies are not clinical trials so they are pretty much meaningless. The Danish study is the most comprehensive mask study ever done.
replied 1240d
I can tell you have not spent much time evaluating alternate hypotheses using data from objective studies.

Here's another: Many cases of airplane rides where literally everyone wore a mask and no transmission. And vice versa.

And here is an example of a *useful* study
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32917603/
replied 1241d
* Surgical mask, 1% particles allowed through
* Double-layer bandana, 25-80 % particles
* N95 mask, no exhalation valve, fitted- 0.1 % particles
* Control, no mask 100% particles

Lots of issues here. First and foremost, this is not a direct measure of virus transmission with vs without masks. It's a policy review. Even Danes break the rules sometimes.
replied 1241d
Cloth masks don't protect the wearer much; N95's do. Just 1 asymptomatic maskless person in a room can easily infect dozens of people wearing masks. This study doesn't catch this.
replied 1241d
For example, the study doesn't control for duration. Aside from super-spreaders (which do happen) most people need to be in close proximity 5 mins or more. Not likely in grocery store.
