In case anyone missed it - Trish Greenhalgh (npub1dcm…dgz4) dropped a HUGE multi disciplinary study on masks & respirators yesterday.
This study involved people from all over the world and tackled everything from are masks effective against COVID (spoiler -
They are), why were there bad RCTs saying the opposite and what were their flaws, what are the sociological barriers to masking (with input from Deborah Lupton (npub1fqg…4dal)).
It was exactly the kind of gold standard, irrefutable study on masks and respirators that we need to counter the “masks don’t work” crowd. Unfortunately I realize many of them won’t ever read it - but it still feels wonderful to see it laid out so clearly.
