    Inconclusive results, missing data, variable adherence, patient-reported findings on home tests, no blinding, and no assessment of whether masks could decrease disease transmission from mask wearers to others.

    Seems like a really well done study.

    It was a well-done study, and it did find masks offer a statistically insignificant protection.

    Conclusion:

    The recommendation to wear surgical masks to supplement other public health measures did not reduce the SARS-CoV-2 infection rate among wearers by more than 50% in a community with modest infection rates, some degree of social distancing, and uncommon general mask use. The data were compatible with lesser degrees of self-protection.

    Because none of that happens in real life right? Everyone wears them always and perfectly. FYI the airborne virus goes right through them. But you do you dingbat.

    Post a larger and better study. I'll look. I think this may be the largest I've seen so far.
