Controlled study from Denmark; masks don’t work

Never thought I’d see people actively cheering for a pandemic to be more deadly than it is, yet that’s how insane the Left has become. The governors don’t even adhere to their own mandates, yet cultists like @HHusky and @BearsWiin excuse the obvious hypocrisy.

Ghoulish

I apologize for encouraging the virus through my "cheering".

Grandma's dead?

My bad. But she was old.

Just for you retards who haven't read a medical paper or done academic research of your own in over a decade, if ever...

Here is a link to a slew of mask (including homemade mask) research done prior to 2020 before it became a political weapon that came to roughly similar conclusions:

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term="masks"+"infections"&filter=years.1949-2019

GENERALLY: Masks might reduce "some" viral spreading, it fails to protect in general; though it might be useful in "some" situations for "certain" periods of time if used "properly" and "responsibly" but certainly not "all the time" and not in "every situation". There are very few, if any studies/papers, that indicate that mask wearing population groups have decreased case numbers specifically due to mask usage. France, Germany and Spain are all countries that have mask mandates with strong compliance. Those countries proportionally are no better or worse than countries without mandates in the same region, such as the Nordic countries.

Extra Credit:

There are lots misconceptions about Asian countries and their "successful" usage of masks, Vietnam specifically has very low case numbers but low mask compliance, high population density centers, high pollution, and a heavy social drinking and eating culture. They should be getting devastated by covid19. There may be a genetic component in SE Asians that makes them particularly resistant to coronaviruses.

You mean similar to those under 70 with no underlying health issues?!?!

The Throbber just goes to the doctor, he gives him the pills, and the sores go away!
