Although mechanistic studies [*] support the potential effect of hand hygiene or face masks, evidence from 14 randomized controlled trials of these measures did not support a substantial effect on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza. We similarly found limited evidence on the effectiveness of improved hygiene and environmental cleaning.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Here are quotes from pages 970-972 of the review: \u201cIn our systematic review, we identified 10 RCTs [randomized controlled trials] that reported estimates of the effectiveness of face masks in reducing laboratory-confirmed influenza virus infections in the community from literature published during 1946\u2013July 27, 2018. In pooled analysis, we found no significant reduction in influenza transmission with the use of face masks\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cDisposable medical masks (also known as surgical masks) are loose-fitting devices that were designed to be worn by medical personnel to protect accidental contamination of patient wounds, and to protect the wearer against splashes or sprays of bodily fluids\u2026 There is limited evidence for their effectiveness in preventing influenza virus transmission either when worn by the infected person for source control or when worn by uninfected persons to reduce exposure. Our systematic review found no significant effect of face masks on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cIn this review, we did not find evidence to support a protective effect of personal protective measures or environmental measures in reducing influenza transmission.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">\u201cWe did not find evidence that surgical-type face masks are effective in reducing laboratory-confirmed influenza transmission, either when worn by infected persons (source control) or by persons in the general community to reduce their susceptibility\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">[*] In case you want to quibble about the value of what the authors refer to as \u201cmechanistic studies,\u201d the authors are correctly setting those studies off to the side, in favor of the material they preferred to examine: randomized controlled trials\u2014which are widely considered to be more valuable, relevant, and meaningful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">So there you have it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Your science.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">Take off your masks.
