Cochrane Mask Study, Dr. Tom Jefferson, Science vs Politics
Dr. Tom Jefferson, lead author of the Cochrane Review on physical interventions against respiratory viruses, appeared on CNN to clarify his study's findings that masks show no significant effect in stopping the spread of COVID-19. This contradicts Dr. Fauci's claims that the study was "misleading." Jefferson argued that the public has been "drunk with certainty" regarding masks, which he characterizes as a political rather than scientific stance.
