Dining at restaurants and the lack of mask mandates are each linked to the spread of the virus in the U.S., the C.D.C. says.

As officials in Texas and Mississippi lifted statewide mask mandates, researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention offered fresh evidence of the importance of mask use in a new study on Friday. Wearing masks, the study reported, was linked to fewer infections with the coronavirus and Covid-19 deaths in counties across the United States

The researchers also found that counties opening restaurants for on-premises dining — indoors or outdoors — saw a rise in daily infections about six weeks later, and an increase in Covid-19 death rates about two months later

The study does not prove cause and effect, but the findings square with other research showing that masks prevent infection and that indoor spaces foster the spread of the virus through aerosols, tiny respiratory particles that linger in the air.

No firm data provided or the link to the study, just innuendo.

Usually it takes 4 or 5 NYT reporters to write something this thorough.

And by the way....how is it the hospitals haven’t been expanded to handle China Virus cases?

It’s bee over a year, and there is no longer any excuse for making the entire nation suffer for their incompetence.

Driving at over ten MPH is linked to auto fatalities.

Yet, a few days ago they said the Super Diversity Bowl was NOT a super spreader event - hardly any cases.

They HATE the red states because we cherish freedom.

All about the punishment...tho they won’t outright say it.

What a bunch of horse manure! You get sent to 3 other sites and just end up at a CDC recommendation.
They did NO studies.

Studies would have to have followed 2 large groups of people-one group wearing masks, the other group wearing no masks and the study would have to have been done for a period of months.
This was not done.

The Establishment should’ve shut down Woodstock and arrested the 400,000 super-spreaders.

The space WAS declared a disaster area before the weekend was over.

Wow, when people don’t wear masks and go out to eat they’re more likely to catch COVID??? It’s almost behaving like a novel respiratory virus that few people have a natural immunity to!!

This isn’t/shouldn’t be news to anyone, which is what the NYT and a lot of folks don’t realize. It’s not that people against mask mandates and business closures are ignorant; they simply know the facts and have made personal decisions about their own health.

Looks like my church after we meet. Minus the PPE.

Guy goes around the pews with something that resembles a steam cleaner (fogger).
