A mask that increases the rate of infection, you can't make it up can you?

Coronavirus: Which face covering works best? Scientists test 14 masks - and find one actually increases risk of infection

Scientists have tested 14 different types of face-covering and found that one of them actually increases the risk of coronavirus infection.

14 different types, well since there are only three types recommended by WHO sounds a bit clickbaity.

I've tried to stay out of this discussion, but something has irked me since all this started:

I don't believe the numbers one bit. They are artificially inflated and outright lied about. I keep hearing about case after case of people dying with the cause of death being listed as coronavirus, yet the person had a heart attack or was in a motor vehicle accident. Or how they include probable, but unconfirmed, cases in their numbers. You have a headache and the sniffles? CORONAVIRUS! It's actually allergies or the common cold, but it's counted as another case of coronavirus. Plus the tests are very inaccurate. Our own governor, Mike DeWine tested positive recently only to have multiple other tests come back negative. Yet he'll be counted in those number of positive cases regardless. No, I believe this is overhyped and is being used as a test bed for many things, such as moving on to digital currency where they can control every aspect of your finances. And you can't tell me this isn't going to be exploited to try and sway the elections this fall.

I still wear my mask in public and use my sanitizer like a good monkey even tough I think it's by and large a farce.

agreed, absolutely!
I won't comment on the digital currency thing but death rates are absolutely and definitely fake. I was told 4 people died in my town because of covid, and they were all people my dad knew. what was up with them? 3 were terminal cancer patients and the fourth was a morbidly obese person who had a heart attack. they were tested for several days after being sent to the hospital and only after a few tests they came out positive. imagine how inflated the actual numbers got if this happens pretty much everywhere.

Exactly. The article states exactly what I said. They counted all deaths after a positive covid test as a covid death, even if you walked in front of a bus a couple months later. I'm glad people are starting to wake up to these lies.

Well I just read students are getting their exams results downgraded for the some reason.

Damn it. I wish I hadn't stumbled into this post.

Think I'll go stay in the fish side.

Well I hope you're not burying your head in the sand... How would you feel if your government told you it was mandatory? Vaccines take 5 years to test and it seems some people are advising to pop it in as soon as..

I'm absolutely not burying my head. Vaccines will need to go through trials of course but immunologists and those with the expertise will only go ahead when it's safe to do so. There's no gain in injecting vaccines that will cause harm. It would collapse the entire vaccination programme. Which was already damaged enough for Wakefield.

You don't get it, there is no way to know what harm it would do without extensive testing which is exactly what they are bypassing to fast track it.

The idea about using covalescent plasma to treat you if you get covid 19 seems very promising to me. I would consider it if I caught the virus.

I do get that those who make decisions about safety of a vaccine know a lot more than we do. With every medicine you balance risk v reward. We're seeing the devasting risks unfold.

Yes they do, but, we DO know it takes years to carefully test a vaccine.
