Don't pay attention to dumb narratives. Government, press as well as academia serve themselves. Why would you blindly trust what they say? The relevant science was publicly on the web, and it was always clear from all relevant research that masks are there to stop the wearer from spreading; any doctor would've told you, they are taught about it in school. It was the narrative in many other countries for way over a year, if that's what you must look for (e.g. "chráníš mě, chráním tebe" - I protect you, you protect me - is the official governmental stance in Czechia since March 2020).
