> Right. No one has ever studied contagions among the community at large and the effect of masks.
It's been studied. There has not been a randomized controlled trial because performing one would be extremely unethical.
There is plenty of study evidence to support their use, just nothing meeting the gold standard of a RCT and there never will be one against a true live fire contagious disease.
The irony with all this is that the US administration really want to get people back to work as soon as possible. Massive deployment and mandatory usage would be the safest way to do that the soonest.
Too bad they already foreclosed that option by materially misleading the public.
