Masks/Face Covering Efficacy Statistic

Posted on 08/24/2020 3:10:14 PM PDT by lakecumberlandvet

Here’s a statistic I’d like to see: what percentage of those people who have tested positive for covid-19 used masks/face coverings prior to their positive test? An inquiring mind wants to know.


TOPICS: Health/Medicine
KEYWORDS: masks; vanity

No case study that I’ve seen. Only news stories about individuals not wearing masks before testing positive.

One month after statewide mask mandate, California’s daily COVID case average increased by 162%.

Welllllll...

That’s because you didn’t wear gloves, and a condom, and a funny hat as well!

The free masks being given away at our church when you enter without one says on the box “Not For Medical Use” ....they’re the blue kind.

Watch some YouTube “I got COVID” videos. There are plenty to pick from, and I’ve seen some where they were bellyaching that they were wearing a mask and this shouldn’t have happened.

Here's an even more crazy statistic you should look up: How many people in NY got the virus when they were staying at home and not going out at all?

1. If true, it’s the sort of thing you’d think people should hear. And yet, this sort of information is curiously absent from what we hear from our “journalists” and politicians.

2. The mask nazis will simply say that this is an indication that they didn’t mandate masks soon enough. They’ll say we need to lock down much harder, that we need to be even more stupid and ridiculous about masks, that we can never return to “normal”.
