In 2015, the CDC conducted a randomized controlled trial to compare the efficacy of cloth masks with that of medical masks and controls (standard practice) among healthcare workers in Vietnam. Rates of infection were consistently higher among those in the cloth mask group than in the medical mask and control groups. This finding suggests that risk for infection was higher for those wearing cloth masks.
No effing duh. People touch their faces all damn day contributes to getting sick. Who would have ever thought?

It doesn’t take a medical genius to understand how a reused cloth mask will trap a whole lot of shit. Not sure why people don’t see this.

I notice that neither disposable medical masks nor reusable cloth masks were studied against not wearing a mask at all. I fear this study in the wrong hands will give rise to making disposable masks mandatory rather than the ridiculousness of mandating masks. That anyone seriously believes either style to be effective against viruses known to be between 50 and 250 microns when oil and tobacco smoke pass freely through most of these masks along with scent from perfumes and flatulence. With outdoor temperatures now low enough for breath to be seen, it's quite evident aerosolised viruses riding on moist exhalations are hardly impeded by any masks readily available to the general public. This is all about creating a visual reminder that we are in a "pandemic situation" to normalise the curtailing of rights normally taken for granted.
