Once again, he speaks of the "data" supposedly supporting his viewpoint on mask usage. You know, the "data" that he never gets around to releasing to the public.
This morning I saw an excerpt of Twitter post from what I assume was a paper for a journal. It analyzed a group of about a thousand “cases” - I don’t know if these were just positive test results or active cases - according to their contacts with other people who had been COVID or had tested positive, the degree of closeness to those people, adherence to various “protective” guidelines, etc.
In the mask wearing column, the choice was “never wears a mask or face covering,” “sometimes,” etc all the way to “always wears a mask or face covering.”
This tracked people for the two weeks representing the supposed incubation period prior to their diagnosis.
6% of the cases had never worn a mask; 70% had ALWAYS worn a mask or face covering in those 2 prior weeks. So that shows you that masks actually increase one’s chance of infection, and do so overwhelmingly.
I hope this study gets published; I had a feeling that it was leaked without attribution mainly to get around Twitter censorship.
“Flatten the Curve!”
Two Weeks=7 MONTHS!
