Wikipedia is not a peer reviewed paper from a medical journal, and studies other than very recent hysteria driven anecdotes do not claim efficacy of cloth masks.
It's a good thing then that it's a compendium of sources, including peer reviewed papers from medical journals, huh?

In addition to checking those sources out, perhaps read my point on how it wouldn't matter in the slightest if every bit of data we had on cloth masks was from 2020.

Sure it does, if we have 50 years of research all stating the same thing, recent studies done in a panic on anecdotal evidence is not as strong. I prefer the numerous prior sources to recent hysteria driven ones. Good science demonstrates it was free of a agenda driven motivation.

I could post a number of wrong scientific ideas that were the consensus for 50+ years before they were eventually disproved. If you had a scientific background, you'd know that. Hell, I wasn't even allowed to use scientific papers that were 10+ years old half the time.

And, again, we have science from before 2020 on the efficacy of cloth masks.

I honestly feel like you've more or less given up and you're arguing for the sake of arguing at this point.

How recent are the studies you are looking at? The date matters.

Here: German Center of Air and Space Travel has looked into how much they stop/affect aerosol dispersion
https://www.dlr.de/content/de/artikel/news/2020/04/20201026_aeromask.html (german) - scientifically.

Result: The experiments show clearly the effect of every day type masks (chirurgical, cloth) on the dispersion of exhaled aerosols and particles, in addition to their positive effect on infection prevention.

That doesnt help, if they are in on the big social engineering project you are afraid of, of course. ;)

Links dead dude.
 
No, I already been down this rabbit hole and I read numerous sources on the topic. I went straight to academic databases and there was no long term studies demonstrating the efficacy of masks.
Somebody isn't doing his homework and somehow thinks he's going to do well on the test.

Somebody also thinks he can arbitrarily discount the preponderance of studies we have just because they commit the grave sin of being *gasp* contemporaneous.

That's a bad combination.

Well post them. Show us your sources. If you are confident your sources are correct and infallible, then show us them.

YEA WE ALREADY PROVIDED the screen shot from facebook post from "notarussianbot42" and they still don't believe mask don't work.. Liberal don't understand how news and science work now
