I thought it was settled in the early 80’s when they did the mask test in an actual busy operating room for 6 months and found infections actually went DOWN!!!

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2493952/pdf/annrcse01509-0009.pdf

The results of the relatively simple trial reported
here could easily be repeated and it would
be interesting to see whether comparable results
are obtained in emergency, orthopaedic, or
other general surgical theatres. The finding that
there was an appreciable fall in the wound infection
rate when masks were not worn certainly
warrants further investigation. This trial was
designed only to see whether wound infection increased,
as had been predicted, when masks were
not worn. It did not. The conclusion is that
the wearing of a mask has very little relevance
to the wellbeing of patients undergoing routine
general surgery and it is a standard practice
that could be abandoned.

It was also settled when these 49 studies were done showing they work.

Do face masks work? Here are 49 scientific studies that explain why they do

But some people don't want to wear masks even for short periods when contagion rates are high. So it will NEVER be settled.

There may be a slight bit of virus mitigatasion with masks based on studies, but the public use is significantly different than a controlled lab. People touch, re-use, cough and sneeze into, and re-contaminate their unsanitary masks in public.

.... Furthermore, the effects that masking is having on health, childhood development, speech development, etc. are unknown and are under-investigated. Ergo – governments aren’t funding this research. Without government funding, the answer to the damage done will never be answered. ...

No need to study what should be common sense. Masks make it harder to breathe. Masks interfere with normal human communication.

AND.. masks are totally used wrong. No collection points to collect and store used masks for proper HAZMAT disposal. no protocol for proper donning and removal of masks, no time use recommendations for wearing of masks, no recommendations of when to change masks, etc., etc.

The NIH already had the data and the CDC was aware that masks sound good but make NO DIFFERENCE in public. This was a complete review that was done in 2020-2021... what a f@#king joke.

Everyone is looking for cover. Just wait until they release the data on myocardial damage, oncologic spread and reproductive damage with miscarriages and premature labor.... that Pfizer, Moderna, JNJ and all the other HID. I hope that some family members go barbarians on all the bureaucrats and executives and their families for the deaths and destruction they have caused the families of many innocent people that "trusted" the science and our government.

What fools I see wearing masks many still are using various types of cloth masks which are even less effective and unless they are frequently washed could become a biohazard in themselves. Masks are little more than talismans and badges of virtue signaling little different that the foul smelling asafedita bags worn to protect against the Spanish Flu more than a century ago.

All you really need to know is that after SARS, everyone in China started wearing those stupid masks, any time they were out in public. It’s an obsession with them. So that’s basically a billion person live trial of the masks.

And it did absolutely nothing to stop the next two respiratory epidemics that started in China.
