After the WHO & CDC have done a couple of u-turns (and full 360s) on masks, what’s the current “truth”?
==============
Let’s start with a basic question, how is COVID transmitted?
Initially, the science community (think: Fauci channeling the WHO and China’s disinformation) told us not to worry … that COVID was not transmitted human-to-human.
Then, we were told that it was transmitted human to human (to human) … via large droplets that contaminate surfaces (think: countertops and doorknobs) and hands … and transfer by handshaking and face-touching.
We bought into that … we started washing our hands and cleared store shelves of hand sanitizers and surface disinfectants (which are still in short supply).
Then, we were told that COVID is transmitted via large droplets that are delivered when infected people cough, sneeze and spray-talk on us.
That conclusion ushered in social distancing and masks went from “won’t help, might hurt” to “best line of defense”. Most recently, CDC Director Redfield — apparently auditioning for a role as the village idiot –testified that wearing a mask is more of a viral deterrent than vaccines.
Then, a short-lived CDC guidance revision threatened to upset a big apple cart.
Here’s the back story…
