I'd really like to know if masks are so ineffective at preventing the transmission of diseases... Hugin Jun 2021 #52

I've made that same point, in fact! Orrex Jun 2021 #55

Then why didn't strict mask mandated prevent the surge of covid-19 cases back in Jan. Yavin4 Jun 2021 #58

It can't be proven the use of PPE and other guidelines didn't reduce the case load. Hugin Jun 2021 #59

Outside of vaccines, the only true mitigation measure that worked was social distancing. Yavin4 Jun 2021 #61

Evidence? Hugin Jun 2021 #67

Are they seeing re-infections at a similar rate? Midnight Writer Jun 2021 #62

Not sure SheltieLover Jun 2021 #69

Dr. Rand Paul says you're immune if previously infected, so they probably don't track them. Midnight Writer Jun 2021 #102
