Massive Peer-Reviewed Mask Study Shows ‘Little To No Difference’ In Preventing COVID, Flu Infection

A massive international research collaboration that analyzed several dozen rigorous studies focusing on “physical interventions” against COVID-19 and influenza found that they provide little to no protection against infection or illness rates.

The study, published in the peer-reviewed Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, is the strongest science to date refuting the basis for mask mandates worldwide.

And of course, the CDC still recommends masking in areas with “high” rates of transmission (fewer than 4% of US counties, as Just the News notes), along with indoor masking in areas with “medium” rates of transmission (27%).

Masks are still required in educational institutions in Democratic strongholds such as New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Washington and California, according to the Daily Mail. Boston Public Schools denied its “temporary masking protocol” in early January was a “mandate,” following a public letter against the policy by student Enrique Abud Evereteze.

South Korea is still requiring masks on public transport and in medical facilities after dropping COVID mandates in most indoor settings, including gyms, Monday, Reuters reported. -Just the News

According to the Cochrane study, which included the work of researchers at institutions in the  U.K., Canada, Australia, Italy and Saudi Arabia, a total of 78 studies were analyzed. Most recent additions to the meta-analysis were 11 new randomized controlled trials.

As unlisted study author Carl Heneghan – who directs the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine at the University of Oxford noted on Twitter: “Wearing masks in the community probably makes little or no difference to the outcome of influenza‐like illness (ILI)/COVID‐19 like illness compared to not wearing masks.”

The Danish study had trouble finding a major journal willing to publish its controversial findings that wearing surgical masks had no statistically significant effect on infection rates, even among those who claimed to wear them “exactly as instructed.” 

Mainstream media overlooked red flags in the Bangladeshi mask study, which found no effect for surgical masks under age 50 and a difference of only 20 infections between control and treatment groups among 342,000 adults. -JTN

Bottom line, mask wearing “probably makes little to no difference,” when it comes to influenza-like or COVID-like illnesses, regardless of type of mask used.

We’re sure the cult of Fauci will now start insisting peer-reviewed meta-analyses aren’t ‘the science.’ – zerohedge.com

There were no  scientific studies showing that forcing an entire community to wear mask in public had any effect on the spread of the COVID virus.  None. All it did was give people a false sense of security and maybe that was the idea all along.

Remember the whole Ivermectin thing?  The drug labeled “horse medicine” by the Big Pharma funded mainstream media and our governments?   Would it have made a difference if distributed to the public early in the “pandemic”?  We will never know.  What we do know is that it was cheap, the patent had expired and had it worked, then there would be no need for the Emergency Use Authorization act which allowed the governments regulatory agencies to:

authorize unapproved medical products or unapproved uses of approved medical products to be used in an emergency to diagnose, treat, or prevent serious or life-threatening diseases or conditions caused by CBRN threat agents when certain criteria are met, including there are no adequate, approved, and available alternatives.

….including there are no adequate, approved and available alternatives and there lies the rub.  If Ivermectin was effective, Big Pharma would be out billions of dollars of profits.  Interesting.

The drug companies also received immunity from lawsuits should these unapproved medical products cause harm to the public.  That and billions of dollars in profits.  The companies also received that.

We are now finding out that almost everything we were told and were forced to do to “flatten the curve” was not based on science at all.   Anyone that pointed this out from the beginning of the “pandemic” were labeled by the mainstream media and their own governments as enemies of the human race.

Hopefully people will remember what was done, what they were forced to do, the price they paid both socially and financially and the complete destruction of the global economy.  Sadly, I doubt anyone will.
