Cochrane Study Shows that the Debate is Over: Masks Do NOT Work
By Steve Kirsch
Cochrane study shows no evidence they work. Duh. We’ve been saying that for a long time. This discredits the CDC as well as the entire mainstream medical community (except for UCSF’s Vinay Prasad).
Executive summary
So now we are down to just one credible mainstream scientist for advice on COVID mitigation strategies: Vinay Prasad.
Introduction
He wrote: “Once again, masks and N95s don’t work – see marked pages 22-23”
From page 22:
From Page 23:
The Cochrane press release confirmed all this and then concluded: “We are uncertain whether wearing masks or N95/P2 respirators helps to slow the spread of respiratory viruses.” Yeah right. Let me provide the Plain English Translation for you of that statement:
“We couldn’t find a shred of evidence supporting the notion that masks make any difference whatsoever. Whoever is advising people to do this is not basing their decision on any scientific evidence.”

Summary
The staff people who advised him to do this should be fired.
CDC Director Rochelle Walensky should be fired for not being able to analyze what the science says.
The only reliable mainstream scientist left that America should be relying on for COVID mitigation strategies is UCSF Professor Vinay Prasad.
The mainstream infectious disease medical community is now a laughing stock for not calling this out.
