Masks are useless according to new COCHRANE STUDY:

The pooled results of RCTs did not show a clear reduction in respiratory viral infection with the use of medical/surgical masks. There were no clear differences between the use of medical/surgical masks compared with N95/P2 respirators in healthcare workers when used in routine care to reduce respiratory viral infection.

Sad thing is, you still so it so often here in Malta. And they look very angry at you because they wearing a mask

Print out the study and hand it to them.

I tell you what happen: They throw it away without even looking at it. Then they scream for the police. I guess that's the new wold....

Only in some places. Most people are over masks. Especially here in Sweden where they were never adopted or recommend. Just woke crazy people wear them. Thats how most people im Sweden see masked npc:s.

Are people still masking up in the developed world? Here in Argentina everyone stopped being crazy about masking like 2 years ago or so.

Especially people from Asian still wearing them here.

They wore before. Already damaged by previous pandemics.

I appreciate this data coming out, but I thought it was pretty apparent about a month into the pandemic that the masking was bullshit.

But rather than ask those who saw through the facade what thought systems they used to recognize the bullshit more quickly, we continue to TrUsT tHe ScIEnCe.

Defaulting to what humans have evolved to do, breathing unobstructed and fighting diseases with a healthy body, is the baseline.

Masking, vaccines, and social distancing require a massive burden of proof that was simply never compelling enough for me personally.

Takeaways they SHOULD have from the pandemic:

-Have faith in the resilience of the human body and take good care of yourself.

Takeaways they DO have from the pandemic:

-ScIeNcE HaRdEr

Alot of scientists were against the maskings and the lockdowns as well as mass vaccination. It was called the Barrington Declaration, but they were silenced by the political institutions and establishment.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the beautiful free market system of ideas that is (lowercase) science.

I take issue with the centralized communistic system that is (uppercase) Science.

Many countries had their own resistance movements within medical and legal fields. Now they are networking across the globe and holding joint conferences, collaborate and share studies, prosecute govts and corporations with law suits etc.

That's why real science takes time to come out.

The incentive structure in research (specifically grant funding) and medicine is also going to greatly benefit from decentralization over the next decade. #MedNostr could easily be the pin that bursts the bubble.

They were not actively silenced, they were used to grow and control opposition groups and promote the narrative that covid is real. The scientists that rightfully claimed that there is no proper evidence for the virus to exist in the first place were the ones who actually were and still are silenced. People like Stefan Lanka, Andrew Kaufman, Tom Cowan and others were lied about, their scientific careers were destroyed and all the funding was pulled from them. One russian scientist was actually murdered a few days after he told everyone the truth about virus not being real at russian analogous meetup, such as "Barrington Declaration".

I had acquaintances die in rooms full of people with similar symptoms. Seems pretty real to me.

The people who leaked it from the lab would love if conspiracy theorists belived the virus was fake.

Amen

Why would they love that? If people acknowledge the fact that no virus has been properly proven to exist and make anyone sick, it won't be possible to manipulate them by using fear. That's not something globalists aka banksters would want. The theory about the virus being man made reinforces the illusion that it exists in the first place. Which on the other hand leaves them many options to use it against people by fabricating new dangerous viruses in the years to come.

People dying with similar symptoms is a real thing, could have happened for a number of reasons including chemical poisoning and needs further investigation case by case. This fact by itself however does not prove that the virus exists. In order to prove the existence of any virus you need to physically isolate it and properly show that it is pathogenic. Which has never been done for the SAR-CoV-2.

#[9]

It has been isolated multiple times around the world and it takes 5 minutes of googling to learn that. Please stop throwing misinformation at me and go find someone gullible enough to have their psyche wrecked by a random anonymous dude with an emoji for a profile picture.

Have you read those scientific papers that claim to isolate it yourself? All of the papers that I have seen clearly lack required scientific processes to prove an existence of pathogenic particle. Please share if you know of a particular proper paper that doesnโ€™t.

You propose mass chemical poisoning as an alternative explanation with 0 basis but you want me to trust you with interpreting highly complex scientific studies I have a hard time keeping up with myself? I think Iโ€™ll pass.

I said there could have been a number of reasons, and each case needs to be separately looked into, which is totally fair. I don't want you to trust me, I want you to open the scientific studies and check for yourself if they follow a completely logical process for isolating the supposed virus and showcasing that it is able to make anyone sick. You don't have to be a genius or have a PHD in virology just to check what exact steps were taken and if they are legitimate. But for some reason you and #[2] prefer to just blindly trust the sCiEnCe and take very questionable studies (to say the least) at face value.

I survived 8 gas chambers.

Thank you friend. Welcome. Are there more of ours?

Yeah for example I love Japan but Iโ€™m pretty disappointed about how the population actively supports the restrictive measures. The government decided to open up to tourism again only recently which is bonkers.

They did it because they followed Thailand. Cucks.

๐Ÿ˜‚

Reminds me of people when they are showed lack of evidence in scientific papers for the virus existing and being pathogenic.

We have had a great filter for 300,000 years. It's called a nose. Mouth breathers have been brainwashed and have no idea how to use the nose because the Illuminati Central Planners have taught the medical doctors and nurses that we visit to teach us to take deep breaths through our mouths.

Praniyama which is the breath exercises of Hatha yoga and kriya yoga teach you to use your nose as a filter. This is why you get colds but don't die. Virus and bacterial infections are introduced here along with healthy organisms that promote metabolic health. When your nose produces mucus and you swallow it, it makes you sick but it also via your stomach introduces microorganisms to your immune system. Here natural immunity begins its manufacturing process. Also the nasal cavity absorbs energy ( prana) which is in oxygen, nitrogen and is a basic building block for life itself.

So we don't need witch doctors and paid statist shills to tell us what we need to live. Why?

Because we've been living for 300,000 years in our current human form and we've made it this far without central planning devils. In fact we've made it this far in spite of the central planning devils who strive to cull humanity at every chance they get.

Not Today Satan!

Exactl ๐Ÿ’ฏ. People (are easily made to) believe that the only way they can fight the virus is with their brain. By thinking things through, by devising clever strategies, adapting behavior. All the while ignoring their body that was trained for thousands of years for the job.

Low adherenceโ€ฆ not surprised at the findings.

With both studies that show an effect and studies that show zero effect I ask the exact same questions:

1. Was the study done sufficiently?

2. Who paid for the study?

3. Did they pay for the study before seeing the results? Or did they buy a study that โ€œprovedโ€ their point of view?

If any of these questions are not clearly answered that the study itself can be disregarded in my view ๐Ÿค”

Don't have to disregard facts, but you can of course pick up and detect biases. Hence why authors have to declare conflict of interest and acknowledgement.

This was a meta-study.

Objectives

To assess the effectiveness of physical interventions to interrupt or reduce the spread of acute respiratory viruses.

Search methods

We searched CENTRAL, PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, and two trials registers in October 2022, with backwards and forwards citation analysis on the new studies.

Selection criteria

We included randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and clusterโ€RCTs investigating physical interventions (screening at entry ports, isolation, quarantine, physical distancing, personal protection, hand hygiene, face masks, glasses, and gargling) to prevent respiratory virus transmission.
