Prediction: sometime in the future we’ll see and maybe even admit how pointless the cloth masks are.
It’ll be like the masks in the first place when they lied about if we needed them at all. They’ll admit well, yeah, we didn’t have enough actual medical masks so we told everyone to put a T-shirt on their face.
How many upset people replying to this tweet saw the word cloth
I have to admit, I am amazed at the people at the gullibility of folks screaming “science!” after we have already been lied to about masks by the CDC this pandemic. There have been studies done about the reliability of medical grade masks. Not about a T-shirt.
If your doctor were so convinced that a cloth mask is effective, they would be using those instead of shelling out for actual masks. There’s a reason that hospitals didn’t want the cute mask your grandma made.
But hey, whatever makes you think you’re safe under a bandanna.
Hide under your desk in the event of a nuclear attack and lean forward in your seat if your plane crashes.
Here’s why it annoys me so much: they are once again destroying their credibility on some thing that is marginally effective, if that. Instead they should be focusing on physical distancing, and mitigating the disaster that is nursing homes.
There is so much we could actually be doing instead of promoting this ridiculous idea that a T-shirt on your face is a magical panacea.
SAY IT WITH ME: YOUR DOCTOR DOESNT WEAR A T-SHIRT ON HIS FACE. https://twitter.com/rhinecanthusa/status/1273944685011140608?s=21 https://twitter.com/rhinecanthusa/status/1273944685011140608
Cloth. Masks. Are. Not. Settled. Science. Any study that lumps them in with REAL ACTUAL MASKS is bunk.
I keep hearing Missouri haircut story as proof. I have not seen a single study where does discuss what kind of mask they wore. Nor am I convinced that the masks made the difference. I didn’t see headlines after Land Of the Ozarks “Chlorine and alcohol made the difference!”
Maybe casual contact isn’t as dangerous as prolonged.
