    Here is pretty good evidence that masks do in fact work...flu cases down 70% in Thailand compared to last year.

    COVID is pretty much wiped out here so this is a bonus effect of everyone wearing masks

    • Is it a surprise to anyone though that flu is down with everyone wearing masks and anti-bacterial washing hands regularly? :)microkorg

    • Not a surprise, but some people are still saying masks don't workyuekit
    • It's hard to accurately test something like that so I'm more convinced by large scale effect like thisyuekit
    • Flu is almost extinct in the US, but not Covid.

    • Maybe COVID is just much easier to catch because less immunity?yuekit
    • it's well known pandemics 'replace' seasonal illnesses. i don't think it proves anything about masks - although, feckin wear a mask!kingsteven
    • So the masks, lockdown etc do help and the decline in flu cases could be an indicator of this, but it's still not enough to stop COVID from spreading.yuekit
    • while i think they're effective, they're maybe not that effective - read a thing about cloth masks being shite because of moisture build up a few weeks ago thatkingsteven
    • Maybe it's because we can't get rid of something that doesn't exist. This only proves that Covid is a hoax (if we're going down that road).palimpsest
    • has me contemplating going back to the disposable surgical kind. i could imagine that affecting observations on mask effectiveness in europe vs asiakingsteven
