The Harms From Wearing Masks Are Real

 On the other side of the coin were business owners and individuals who recognized the madness of wearing masks to protect against a virus since for nearly 25 years researchers have questioned the effectiveness of surgical and cloth masks.

In reviewing the literature, the researchers found both standard surgical masks and N95 masks had significant effects, but the N95 mask had a greater impact on clinical parameters.

The researchers found there was no difference in the three types of face masks tested, which included a surgical mask, N95 mask and cloth mask.

There were 1,537 operations with face masks that resulted in 4.7% wound infections and 1,551 operations without face masks resulting in 3.5% wound infections.

A 2009 systematic review of the literature24 found no significant difference in post-operative wound infection and concluded that "From the limited randomized trials it is not clear whether wearing surgical face masks harms or benefits the patients undergoing elective surgery."

In the face of experimental studies and systematic reviews of the literature demonstrating weak evidence that surgical masks were effective during surgery to reduce infection from bacteria, which are significantly larger than viruses, public health experts continued to insist that surgical masks and cloth masks can stop viral transmission.

A study27 of surgical and cotton face masks from 13 healthy volunteers demonstrated that 43% of the bacteria on the masks after four hours were antibiotic-resistant.
