DEAR W.H.O.: What the heck are you doing? Why are you now recommending masks? Forever you have been not recommending masks for use in the general public because you've admitted there are dangers associated with that

They are doing it again Dennis! https://t.co/2MIhRuHrYz

The masks collect and gather all kinds of pathogen-laden materials near your face eyes and nose and everything.  And then you touch the mask the mask and then you touch the rest of your body.  And so it was thought that there was danger associated with that concentration of pathogens.  And that's why the main World Health Organization did not recommend mask use in a general population is that potentially it was believed to be a dangerous thing making matters worse.  Evidence from 14 randomized control trials of these measures did not support a substantial effect on transmission of laboratory confirmed influenza.  We similarly found limited evidence on the effectiveness of improved hygiene and environmental cleaning so here's the latest best study in a sense that uses only these very biased-free studies that says look, it doesn't matter if you sanitize surfaces, it doesn't matter if you're washing your hands and masks don't work that's what science tells us and there's good reason for that the reason is that we know and we have known for a decade now that the main transmission route of all o. these types of viral respiratory diseases is very fine aerosol particles that are supported as part of a fluid air.  With those kinds of particles, they're going to get through the sides of the mask.  Even the tiny wrinkles you have on your skin, there is no way you can prevent these aerosol particles from either entering or coming out.  So masks are not going to work under these circumstances but the top scientists have known as forever.
