WutWell, you see most public health agencies told the public that wearing a mask increased the chances of getting sick and that they should not wear them.
That's a bit of a stretch but in the beginning there were reports that they may not help (bullshit) and that wearing them may lead to people touching their faces more to adjust the mask which could then increase the risk of getting it.
WHO stands by recommendation to not wear masks if you are not sick or not caring for someone who is sick
There is no specific evidence to suggest that the wearing of masks by the mass population has any potential benefit. In fact, there's some evidence to suggest the opposite in the misuse of wearing a mask properly or fitting it properly," Dr. Mike Ryan, executive director of the WHO health emergencies program
I linked the first article that came up on the Google.That's a bit of a stretch but in the beginning there were reports that they may not help (bullshit) and that wearing them may lead to people touching their faces more to adjust the mask which could then increase the risk of getting it.
Things change in science as more evidence is gathered, this isn't out of the ordinary.
Yeah your post stretched the truth quite a bit. People were told that wearing masks improperly might cause more harm than good.
What's the story here?Well... Suddenly I have a need for a rapid test and there's no information to be found about where I can find it around here. So that's neat.
I agree, the topic of conversation was about public mistrust of authorities. @Too swoll to control was epmathizing that people aren't idiots, they're just skepitcal after being lied to.Things change in science as more evidence is gathered, this isn't out of the ordinary.
When and how to use masks

Details on why I need the rapid test?What's the story here?

I was wondering details on if something happened as to why you can't find one.Details on why I need the rapid test?
I was around someone in my inner circle that most likely has contracted it (awaiting results) but I can't in good conscious do my job if I'm a possible carrier. Just found out this morning that they were exposed and are getting tested. I'm supposed to be in 3 surgeries tomorrow morning and then teaching a group of people about a new product that we have. So while I feel fine and dandy I'd prefer to have a bit of science, even if it's a bit faulty, on my side to confirm that I don't have it.
Yeah your post stretched the truth quite a bit. People were told that wearing masks improperly might cause more harm than good.
In my opinion mask use was only cautioned because, as this article mentions, officials were concerned about a mask shortage for emergency service workers, but they've done a poor job communicating this volte-face now that shortages aren't a problem.
No clue. I haven't had one so far and haven't heard of anyone taking them amongst my people. But I've looked within a 50 mile radius and nothing.I was wondering details on if something happened as to why you can't find one.
To diminish a mask shortage. They lied, it is common knowledge now.Well, you see most public health agencies told the public that wearing a mask increased the chances of getting sick and that they should not wear them.
That's some interesting reporting by the BBC.Bayonne: Bus driver left brain dead after being 'attacked over face masks'
The driver in France was set upon by people who had no tickets and refused to wear face masks.www.bbc.co.uk
You read the quoted post to, or nah?To diminish a mask shortage. They lied, it is common knowledge now.
that is trippy that they have to buy tickets to board the bus in france here in L.A county LBT anf I think MTA gives free bus rides so no one gets close to the bus driver or exchages money or uses a tap card to spread germs.Bayonne: Bus driver left brain dead after being 'attacked over face masks'

Fauci has already outright admitted they were lying because they didn't want people hoarding masks. It is coming back to haunt them now.
