There have been many Randomized control trials in clinical settings prior to covid that actually proved that the effect of masks in a very controlled clinical setting had little to no effect.

The problem is that all these governors who are forcing mask mandates aren't looking at that science and they ar letting people think a homemade fabric cloth over your face is actually protecting you from spreading an airborne virus.

The virus has always been airborne. This whole thing has been a political shit show.
