The science, the actual science, on masks is settled.

Masks don’t work.

They don’t stop transmission of respiratory viruses, they don’t keep people safe, they don’t save lives, and they certainly don’t symbolize caring for the health and safety of others.

There are dozens of studies, a high quality evidence review, and mountains of observational data confirming that masks are ineffective in every possible scenario.

And, despite what the media and “experts” now claim, even “high quality” masks don’t stop transmission or infection.

These are by now the well established facts that few serious scientific minds deny. Yet, unfortunately for the public, there are many minds in the scientific and public health communities that are deeply and firmly unserious. And in another sign of how relentlessly those very institutional leaders will be moving forward, a terrifying piece of misinfor…research on masks was recently published by some infamous names, and it’s as bad as you’d expect.

Let’s dive in!
