Original Note:
The Cochrane review accounted for multiple types of mask wearing (surgical, N95 respirator) and in different settings (healthcare workers, general population). The results stated that wearing a mask “probably makes little or no difference” in transmission/infection. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2023-02-06/face-masks-ability-to-stop-viruses-needs-study-review-finds | https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/do-mask-mandates-work/
