The mask debate is so ridiculous I'm astonished that we are still having it. Why do so many (mostly science deniers) constantly have an axe to grind? Those most "propagandized" are almost a complete overlap with those that identify as "independent thinkers". Please, tell me again what Joe Rogan said on a podcast. Ugh.
- prepend 3y agoDo you think this article was written and peer reviewed by “science deniers?” Do you think they shouldn’t study mask efficacy?
- GenerocUsername 3y agoReplying since you are sorted as top comment at time of this reply... You seem to be implying the people who spoke out against children masking are Joe Rogan watching, science denying, propaganda believing, "independent thinkers". Funny place to post that analysis... in the comment section of a massive meta-analysis whose results include: "Conclusions Real-world effectiveness of child mask mandates against SARS-CoV-2 transmission or infection has not been demonstrated with high-quality evidence. The current body of scientific data does not support masking children for protection against COVID-19." Perhaps read the article and look at yourself in mirror before jumping to tribal us/them mentality... otherwise its you who may be the science denying, propaganda believing, "independent thinker"
- prepend 3y agoI think GP was referring to themself as science illiterate, maybe? It seemed like an odd comment to make given this seems like a decently rigorous paper in a reputable journal. So saying “only cool people believe in science, that’s not this science” seems really off and odd to me.
