70% of those infected with Kung Flu wore masks, followed CDC guidelines.

It is impossible to evaluate exactly where someone contracted the virus.

www.jpost.com

The logic is obvious actually. Masks don’t eliminate the possibility of contracting the virus. What they do, however, is greatly lower the risk of someone Infected passing it on. This matters because half of the people with the virus are asymptotic. Anyone else with the virus doesn’t have symptoms the first week.

I also want to call out how pathetic you people are with scientific research. You ignore any research that doesn’t fit your narrative and cherry pick shit like this that does. You’re all children.

If they “greatly lower the risk “ of getting infected, why is it that 70% of those infected wore masks?

They reduce the risk of passing it on to other people idiot. More importantly, no one ever said wearing masks would eliminate the spread completely. They said it would CONTROL how much it spreads. The CDC has already established this with their findings. Just because you’re a child who cherry picks studies to fit your narrative doesn’t mean these studies don’t exist.

The CDC, WHO and Fauci have contradicted every statement they've made. Masks work/don't work, Asymptomatic spread/do not spread, It's a deadly pandemic/it is no worse than the flu, Millions die from it/Only 6% of those fatalities had covid alone. Wake up, it has over a 98% recovery rate in people under 60. SMH

It is because they were not sure how the covid-19 spread at first (before july or so). respiratory droplets, aerosols, airborne ?? Then, WHO is in CPP's pocket making it worse.

And they still don't know anything about it except that the CCP released it in answer to Trump's trade war. It is a fast spreading flu that attacks and kills the most vulnerable, like any flu. Democrat governors who followed their Chinese handlers advice and put infected people in long term care facilities artificially inflated the mortality rate and the MSM facilitated the CDC/WHO/CCP/DNC narrative. The fearful democrat sheeple of the US are hiding out. I can see it now, the new liberal novel "Twenty Years in My Basement"

fyi
Covid, is not a flu...

a flu, is an influenza virus.

covid is a CORONA virus, and not influenza.... they are totally different. We have decades of experience and medical knowlege and developed therapies on the flu...

we do not have this on SARS COV2....

For all intents and purposes it is the same as flu. Granted, they come from different viruses and med pros know more about flu than covid, but the mortality rate for flu and covid are virtually the same or covid is less. Covid appears to be more contagious but the recovery rate is more than 98% and the vast majority of fatalities are over 60. The sky is not falling.

Could the problem be that we have never had a clear mandate on dealing with the virus? That our financial concerns have overridden our safety concerns? Close everything, open just some, open everything, this rule- no that rule. One fact is clear, the more densely populated areas are going have a more difficult time controlling it, and in less populated areas the virus will start to spread faster where there are no guide lines. and the infection rate numbers support this line of thinking.

It's nature. You don't control it. You can't control the common cold (virus). You prophylactically protect yourself from SOME flu (virus). Now we have a new virus that little is known about publicly and everyone thinks the sky is falling. The fact remains, covid has over 98% recovery rate and the most vulnerable population over 60, like the flu, are the majority of the other <2%. Open everything up and get on with LIFE.

The CDC has published very clear guidelines regarding masks hand washing etc

Why do you need a politician to tell you what to do?

 

[justoffal]

Then why are the vast majority of those infected mask wearers?

Easy: because the vast majority of PEOPLE are mask-wearers. The virus blows through masks like mosquitoes through a hog-wire fence, so everybody catches it equally, mask or no mask.

yep....the virus is measured in microns....unless your are wearing N-95 or better you are actually wearing nothing....but it makes the lefties feel good to see mass conformity to the central command.....kinda like a hive of insects and about as intelligent.

.......I have a thread on this also.....in my link, it says the most common way of getting C19 is touching your hands on something......I went to get tested for C19 at the Urgent Care--where MANY people have C19 symptoms and get tested---I waited outside for about an hour and just about everyone touch the door handle with their bare hands
...I saw the same thing at a strip mall---the masks are useless if you are touching common items----then you get in your car/house/etc and it's all over the place

I guess a glove mandate is next.

..I use rubber gloves at the gas station....I am super sanitary disciplined--but I got C19....I'd like to know how

Aaaaand----YOU RECOVERED. Do you wear masks, hand sanitizer, gloves or social distance for the common cold...the flu? Get on with your life. There will always be diseases that cause death in the vulnerable population.

Dont be stupid....

Your reasoning is vacuous...
You're telling a man who can't afford to buy food for his family that he's better off out of work so he can spend time with his family...
Of course he can watch them stay virus free and starve to death....you retard.

Masks are not a panacea but you do have to follow certain procedures

Most people I see using them have their noses hanging out or they touch the outside of the mask then rub their eyes or touch their faces.

So don't touch the mask then touch your face. when you take the mask off you have to thoroughly wash your hands before you touch your face.

It ain't rocket science

Ridiculous

When required to wear the mask EVERYWHERE AND ALLDAY it is a literal impossibility to never touch the mask or to wash your hands every time you do.

Rejoin us in reality.

Of course you are wrong.

And no one is required to wear a mask everywhere all day long. You don't have to wear a mask in your car or your home or even outside if you can distance

Who the **** is talking about wearing masks at home or in your car???

Use some common sense for ***** sake. Masks are REQUIRED in ANY public space per the Missouri Health Department. If you work in one of those places you wear a mask ALL DAY LONG.

Ridiculous that this stupid shit has to be spelled out for anyone.

The Truth is that it is a losing battle...I'm not saying that we should be totally sloppy and careless but I am going to say that we are not equipped to fight this battle on a daily basis.

The exponent of increase for casual interface with the average population base is nearly infinite...we are not.....that simple. The best example I can think of is an astronaut. He is surrounded by the vacuum and low temperatures of space when he is out there and he needs a sealed space suit to stay alive...we cannot live 24/7 in one of those.

My experience suggests the best way to avoid catching Wuhan is to avoid indoor gatherings.
I travel all around the country as a side job and play bar music as a primary job. Almost all gigs canceled in 2020 but I’ve continued traveling on the other job. For over 30 years I’ve never gone this far into the season without having contracted at least a cold by now. Not this year. Process of elimination suggests the indoor events are the culprit.
Of course all of this should be moot by now as we should have naturally been over this already. But democrat gov’s and their lockdowns are only delaying the process.

You don't wear masks, use hand sanitizer, or social distance for the common cold...or...the flu, which has a higher mortality rate than covid. Quit supporting the Chinese mask industry that even says that it DOES NOT PROTECT AGAINST COVID-19 right on the box for those who bother to read.

FROM THE OP LINK....

Infection with COVID-19 despite wearing protective measures has been recorded, with even medical professionals equipped with maximal personal protective equipment (PPE) occasionally contracting the virus.

Despite this, face masks are still shown to be the most effective means of slowing the spread of the virus, and medical bodies worldwide recommend wearing them and maintaining social distancing measures.

Also, Facebook fact-checker reviewed this study and was able to highlight some flaws:
"The comparison made in the claim cannot evaluate mask effectiveness in reducing the spread of COVID-19, because the study that the claim is based on included many more people who wear masks than people who didn’t," the fact-checker. "Of the 314 individuals surveyed in the study, only 11 never wore masks. Because the group sizes are so uneven, a comparison of the proportion of people who tested positive for COVID-19 who wore masks and who didn’t would show mask wearers to be the majority

Facebook fact checker?

314 infected people surveyed.....70% of them wore masks.

Facebook “Factchecker”: They over sampled mask wearers.

They "said" they wore masks. How many wore masks improperly, not covering their nose? No one is going to admit being a dumbass like you!

Least of all you.

That's it! Reported.

Thanks, I reported you too. They ought to love reviewing all of your profane, insulting slurs. I'm sure Seawytch will enjoy hanging your useless hide out to dry. HaHaHaHa. How'd that work for you.

It only stands to reason that isolation will nearly eliminate most communicable diseases. However if it becomes a matter of course, eventually everyone will lose their herd immunity and you will see mass die offs due to minor disease. Don't be naive and fall for all of this "end of the world" garbage. Go on with your life, the sky is not falling and this is just so much sensationalized crap.

Facebook “Factchecker”: They over sampled mask wearers.

their study trial group only had 11 people in it, that did not ever wear a mask...and 303 people in the study group that did.... a more informed study would be half of the study group as mask wears, and half the study group of maskless deniers.

from what I've heard, non mask wearers are TWO TIMES likely to catch the corona virus than mask wearers.

btw, your article says the mask wears, wore their masks in public, except when eating out... these studies show that most mask wearers that catch covid, ate out in a restaurant, where they took their mask off.

You talk a lot about "what I've heard"..........this study and that study....and yet you bring zero to back any of it up.

The study in the OP is pretty straightforward, so you are having to lie to try to spin it. 314 infected people were studied, 70% were mask wearers and followers of CDC guidlines.

End of story. You can't lie your way to changing those facts.

As I said earlier, 314 infected people out of how many millions of cases?

Apparently you don't have a clue how studies are conducted.

How many people are polled out of tens of millions of voters to get a fairly accurate reading of political races?

Listen asshole, I taught statistics. You have no ******* clue what statistical significance is!
