you realize hes a doctor.....
also the amount of anti mask sentiment on this server is just stupid
your not fighting the system by being a public nuisance
Yeah but the tweets a little unhinged, especially at the end
summary:
twitter is horrible
that is true
Here are some doctors talking about masks: "Although mechanistic studies support the potential effect of hand hygiene or face masks, evidence from 14 randomized controlled trials of these measures did not support a substantial effect on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza."
https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/5/19-0994_article
for that very reason they said back at the beginning of the year that wearing masks would not really help anything, since COVID-19 seemed to transmit so similarly to the flu. however, when they did studies on COVID-19 *itself*, they found that in the cities where masks were worn regularly, the spread of COVID-19 dropped significantly. Now, correlation does not necessarily mean causation, but as far as they could tell mask wearing was most likely one of the higher contributing factors, and thus they started recommending wearing masks.
Here are some other doctors from the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons also on masks AND COVID specifically, many caveats about masks and mostly downplaying their effectiveness overall: https://aapsonline.org/mask-facts/
@Nope It is factually the opposite, MANY places where mask mandates have been enacted the case numbers have skyrocketed (the AAPS link above shows the case in France), and places like Finland and Sweden where masks were NOT mandated either did NOT get pandemic level cases or they just had a normal outbreak case number and mortality curve that fell off to even achieve reduced overall mortality rates when compared to previous years.
Actually in my city bacterial infections are up because everyone wears a mask and doesn't wash it.
smh
Exactly, ineffective mask usage is one of the principal cons against masks. EVEN if you have a mostly effective N95 or N100 mask, if you don't adequately fit it and/or constantly fidget with it you're even worse off.
Masks make me itch and sweat
and I wonder why my nose has alot of pimples
It's like trading covid for a bacteria infection, the only difference is you will still get covid.
tbh
Good point
It's in the expected reactions to masks

CO2 is ofc a heat holder
Can someone make a photoshop of Biden on Pinkies body and Kamala on the Brains?
I..
I... I can't but
why
Do something like this but with camelatoe and byedem?
@Holz1287 I posted your meme on www.TheDonald.win and the mods just stickied it to the front page. Good work. https://thedonald.win/p/11QRtgFrt3/its-the-perfect-crime/c/
Yes
I mean whats the problem with masks, it doest hurt you, and it can limit the spread if a sick person wears one. The honor system is a little too risky, so make everyone wear one, thats the logic behind it.
Lockdowns on the other hand
i think that has some deeper interests
The problem is the mandate
yeah thats unconstitutional
once the government can start telling you "you must meet x requirement to live in society"
They won't stop there...it sets the precedent for more egregious regulations in the name of "safety"
(1) Denmark study.
(2) Cross contamination. Most people don't know how to wear medical masks properly, and therefore harm themselves because they touch the mask too much.
So yeah...masks don't hurt.
....but the liberty is the issue.
Masks hurt more when they give you a bacteria infection.
I think the jury is still out on that. A small number of studies does not confirm reality, but warrants further investigation.
who pinged me?
