Note I’m not criticising their decision to do so, to tell the public it’d have created demand for masks from idiots everywhere.

There was clearly much more nuance to the message than you give the Government credit for.
Wheras I don't agree that a use of a mask will stop transmission I certainly think it will reduce it.

You remember the link I gave you to evidence based view on covid that you barely watched and disparaged as just graph manipulation and not peer reviewed? Had you watched further T cell pre-immunity was also covered.

What are your thoughts on this peer reviewed BMJ article?
