I get that, and I agree that HCQ has not been treated the same as Gilead’s drug, and the panel that determines the treatment has 9 out of 50 people with financial ties to Gilead. That’s a problem and a con.
But Surgeon General telling the nation that masks don’t work was a con too. He might have had a noble purpose, protecting supplies for medical workers, but it was no less deceptive.
The virus is not a con. The virus is what it is, and it’s taking lives. This thread is about masks. Masks work. Not 100%, but they definitely help.
