To the editor:
Why is anyplace still requiring masks?
Studies that show facemasks are effective have one or more of four flaws:
• They only look at N95 or better, not surgical or cloth.
• They look at clinical, not community settings.
• They don’t look at wearing them for hours at a time.
• They’re so badly designed any data accumulated by them is suspect.
Studies that are free of these flaws consistently come to one of two conclusions: Facemasks make no statistical difference, and facemasks increase infections.
