Original Note:
A study published in February 2022 by the CDC contradicts this, concluding that cloth masks were associated with a 56% decrease in testing positive for COVID-19, surgical masks by 66% and N95/KN95 masks by 83% compared to those who didn't wear masks or face coverings. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/71/wr/mm7106e1.htm
