    Masks work better still along with shades and hoodie.
    Awesome look. People tend to keep their distance.
    I have no intentions of giving it up, and I've had my vaccinations.

    This study is beyond my expertise...please submit to trusted experts such as Bret and Heather for evaluation. So-called scientists lie to us all the time, this requires peer review.
    The bottom line is that conservatives cant admit to themselves the Evil they have allowed to romp on their watch.

    This is going to hurt.

    It needs to be reviewed by people I both know and trust. Heather is for instance super good at finding the Bull Shit, reading all of the study document and the sometimes too looking at the data directly and figuring out if it smells right. If the people who made it are lying she can almost always figure it out, though it sometimes takes a lot of hours to do it. She sometimes talks at length at DarkHorse about so called science claims that are either pure fraud, or else the people who made it are incompetent that they never should have received the credentials that they carry/bought.

    These are studies that got past peer review, a process that is now so corrupt that it is arguably a negative.

    The second author is a BLM activist, so I am figuring that this study is likely fraudulent and thus not worthy of my time. I trust no science claims made by the Woke anymore.

    LOL. After my shoulder surgery, I was in a sling for many weeks. In my life I had never been treated better by total strangers. I joked that I might use one whenever I went out into public.
    Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    Have someone light a cigarette near you. Put a mask on. If you can smell the cigarette the mask doesn't work.

    Default Masks Work

    I'm sure they do.

    1) New Jersey: 2825 deaths/million
    2) New York: 2660 deaths/million
    3) Massachusetts: 2531 deaths/million
    4) Rhode Island: 2499 deaths/million
    Anonymity is priceless!

    The lead author is also Woke, and is female ....this "study" appears to be almost all female driven, which is interesting if it is indeed fraud as I suspect. Lead author has also been hyping masks from the jump.

    Taiwan, with good testing, tracing, and mask wearing: 0.42 deaths/million.

    That is literally as thousand times better than America.

    Being an island helps, and asians generally have done great which indicates that something like genetics is going on. Nobody knows though, in part because our experts suck. Sometimes they even straight up lie to us.

    I hope that Bret and Heather talk about this study tomorrow or next week.
