At the very best this is really really bad science. At worse, this is misinformation with a veneer of science. It's just a bunch of graphs with: "look at that! see I told you!". No controlling of variables, no hypotheses, no actual data or meta study of existing data, nothing about actually how masks work. This author is just cherry picking country/state level levels of Covid and making wide assumptions based on laggy and noisy data. This is for Facebook clicks to try and make people that don't like masks happier. It's a peice of cloth over your face, is it really that bloody hard? If the mask stops only 10% of transmission, isn't that still worth it?
