And yet Japan's number of deaths from the flu in 2019 (in other words, pre-pandemic) was ~3.2k, while the US had ~34k deaths from the same season. Japan does have slightly over 1/3 of the US population, but even accounting for that (and not accounting for their MUCH higher population density) their flu death rate was way lower.
Japan is also a much healthier country though so it may not be that indicative of their masks. Even their over weight people are healthier than our non over weight people
It's their choice right? Or have they had forced mask usage for as long as they had?!
It's been optional, yes, but it still demonstrates the "unsafe" and arguably the "ineffective" arguments are silly.
It creates one centralized area for covid particles so when you touch it you have a 100% chance of spreading it.

But the studies show otherwise.
So where's all the people with facial deformities dying of hypoxia and pneumonia and the flu in Japan? Or here, for that matter.
Hint: they all have deformed faces and hypoxia. They smoke so many cigarettes that pneumonia is eradicated xD
