Not sure what Lester saw that led to this cartoon, but, here’s some legit scientific research from the Mayo Clinic on the subject:https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-research-confirms-critical-role-of-masks-in-preventing-covid-19-infection/
Did you hear about the peer-reviewed study done by Stanford University that demonstrates beyond a reasonable doubt that face masks have absolutely zero chance of preventing the spread of Covid-19? No? It was posted on the the National Center for Biotechnological Information government website. The NCBI is a branch of the National Institute for Health, so one would think such a study would be widely reported by mainstream media and embraced by the “science-loving” folks in Big Tech.
Must be OAN or NewsMax. Meanwhile, Alabama Conservatives are still claiming Yoga causes strokes, hysteria, and indoctrination to Hindu in children; as the 28 year ban on Yoga, hypnosis, meditation techniques and guided imagery exercises in public schools may be coming to an end.
Panel 2 is an offensive, appalling, unsubstantiated character attack & uses a throw away line that’s meant to be funny. However, if consider it a reference to the twice impeached Trump it is funny.
Don’t know about Stanford, but there was a Danish study done last year involving six thousand people showing there was a 0.3% difference between the masked and unmasked groups in catching the virus. Statistically insignificant. Do a search for “Danish coronavirus mask study”. THAT one was peer reviewed and published in the Annals of Internal Medicine.

It’s a lie Mike. There has been no study that found masks to be ineffective.

The article that is being passed around on Facebook falsely claims that masks are ineffective.
I like the way Snopes puts it.
“Did a ‘Stanford/NIH’ Study Conclude Masks Don’t Work? Really depends on how you define these words: Stanford, NIH, Study, Conclude, Mask, and Work. "
