Coronavirus (COVID-19) Discussion Thread

[Trumpstyle]

A very interested study in Finland has been done. It shows that face mask don't work, they might actually have opposite effect or very marginal positive effect.

"According to the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health, "research suggests face coverings have minimal benefits" to protect health. But that's not all, its misuse may even increase risks, according to the report."

"To date, unlike other governments, the Finnish authorities have neither recommended nor made the use of masks mandatory."

This is funny, someone has to correct me if I'm wrong, but so far neither Denmark, Norway, Finland, Australia and New zealand is recommending or mandating face masks. But Germany are mandating face masks. We shall see if Germany can beat any of those countries.

Imagine if vaccine is 5 years away and the people in Germany has been walking around in face masks for no reason all this time.
