New study indicates facial coverings don’t ‘slow’ or ‘stop’ the spread
A study by the Centers for Disease Control indicates that Americans are adhering to mask mandates, but they don’t appear to have slowed or stopped the spread of the coronavirus.
And further, mask-wearing has negative effects.
In its survey of symptomatic COVID-19 patients, the CDC found that 70.6% reported “always” wearing a mask. An additional 14.4% say they “often” wear one, investigative journalist Jordan Schachtel reported.
That means 85% of infected COVID-19 patients reported they regularly wear a mask.
Only 3.9% said they “never” wear a face covering.
“The study offers insight into the reality that tens of thousands of Americans are acquiring COVID-19 on a daily basis despite overwhelming adherence to mask wearing,” Schachtel said.
And it counters the claim of White House coronavirus member Dr. Anthony Fauci and others that Americans are not following the CDC guidance on wearing masks.
The spreadsheet below shows the results of the study’s symptomatic group on the left and the control group on the right are similar:
Schachtel noted that the survey also contradicts the claim of CDC Director Robert Redfield in a recent hearing that a cloth mask is “more guaranteed to protect me against COVID than when I take a COVID vaccine.”
