Actually, it was talking about the studies it had available as sources. Bascially, garbage in garbage out.
As i read it, they don’t disqualify their own used methods.
No, it’s very clearly including their methods, and there’s no basis for arguing otherwise. You clearly don’t care about the actual science and this is an ideological issue for you.
The plain language says that the study can’t draw any real conclusions, yet here you are telling everyone that it proves the masks don’t work. If you cared about the science you wouldn’t be misrepresenting the findings.
yeah, i conclued similar as what your article says about the writer of the link i provided;
“There is just no evidence that they make any difference,” the lead author said in a media interview. This brought an unusual chastisement from the Cochrane Library’s editor-in-chief, who stated it was “not an accurate representation of what the review found.”
if they can’t say with certainty that it does/doesnt’ work based on all the previous studies. i read it as; There’s no firm prove it works against resporatory virusses. That’s why i wouldn’t bet on it like my life depends on it.
If the methodology in studies is flawed then it doesn’t actually show much of anything. Nobody is claiming anywhere that masks provide a guarantee against contracting a virus, what they do is reduce the number of viral particles that you inhale and reduce the chances of infection. There is also literally zero downside to wearing a mask, so this is a really weird hill to choose to die on.

Don’t immediately throw the ideology card please. Further down in ‘plain language’ they state;
Believe what you will. Cheers
