Denis - The COVID info guy -Modelling data suggests consistent mask use over a 12 month period is more effective at reducing COVID-19 infection, than waiting for a spike in cases.
The findings highlight how the practice can significantly curb the spread of infectious diseases.

ChookMother 🇦🇺🦘@DenisCOVIDinfoguy @auscovid19 If everyone used them all the time, there wouldn't be a spike in cases.

Good! I think these should be the next study topics:
1) consistently not getting shot in the head vs getting shot in the head: which approach is more efficacious in preventing lethal outcomes or severe damage to the organism?
2) not ingesting poison vs ingesting poison over a period of 12 months: what is the better strategy to promote overall health and well-being?
Only partly joking sadly. I bet there are still quite a few people out there that aren't even clear on those things.
In all seriousness though: Why are we wasting time and resources on proving obvious things instead of trying to invest all we can into a true prevention like sterilizing vaccines or impeccable air quality etc.? Blows my mind.
Thaiis Thei 𓁟@GreySkies @DenisCOVIDinfoguy @auscovid19 We are tired as a people. The West has squeezed every single piece of everything it can out of it's people and sacrificed it to Mammon. And now we are beginning to see that that is what we have done. Most are still processing this sub consciously, but, with every extra doom that confronts us, more and more of us are awakening. The awakened are grieving. Once enough of us awake and process that grief, only then can we have the strength to be renewed.

I wish i could believe that....it is only in "bubbles" like this one that i perceive this sentiment though. Whenever i go outside into the real world...i see absolutely zero evidence of that happening :( i see evidence of doubling down on faking normalcy mainly.
@GreySkies @DenisCOVIDinfoguy @auscovid19 That doubling down is a sure sign that they know. But they are afraid. But eventually it will not be possible for them to maintain the charade. Then there will be an explosion. Lots of people will totally loose it one way or another. But enough will awaken and be renewed. Oh look, I am channeling Logan's Run today.
Jim Jones@DenisCOVIDinfoguy @auscovid19 my family has consistently worn masks year round (also not eating in restaurants as we'd have to remove our masks) for three years now. This is due to a family member's medical vulnerability to covid. We are also vaccinated. Our kids even attend public school. They have accommodations that allow them to eat alone in private rooms with corsi-rosenthal filters that we provide the schools. Otherwise they mask all day, every day of school. No covid yet.
