The least bad option was to try to explain to the public the slightly complicated truth: they do work, but they're not a bulletproof solution, you still need to do other things to protect yourself such as washing your hands and social distancing, and please don't hoard them since health care professionals need them a lot right now. Instead we were given a simple lie: they don't protect you.
