Original Note:
Article's claims that face masks don’t work based on results of the Cochrane Review misrepresent its findings. Review couldn’t draw “any firm conclusions” on effectiveness of mask-wearing at limiting spread of respiratory infections due to methodological limitations. Analysis: https://healthfeedback.org/claimreview/multiple-studies-show-face-masks-reduce-spread-of-covid-19-cochrane-review-doesnt-demonstrate-otherwise/
