Ignore Mask Wearing And Get CoVid

from Dr. Howard Smith OnCall · host Howard G. Smith MD, AM

  Vidcast:  https://youtu.be/8MQo73utTe0   If you’re looking for a CoVid infection that could kill or leave you with lingering neurologic, cardiac, and kidney function, avoid wearing a tight fitting, multilayer mask with a filter.  A new study from Boston University now shows that mask wearing is associated with significantly lower CoVid infection rates.   The researchers used data from all 50 states covering mask wearing and physical distancing policies.  Those states in which the highest proportion of citizens practiced mask adherence  enjoyed the lowest CoVid infection rates.  As mask wearing became more acceptable over the summer, for every 1% increase in mask wearing in a state, the odds that the state would suffer high CoVid rates decreased by 26%.   https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.01.18.21250029v1.full.pdf     #covid #mask #infectionrate
