So they tell you to wear a face mask, or rather a face germ diaper, to protect you against the spread of the fauciflu. Or to prevent you from giving it to anther person. And what do they base it on? Well, pretty much, cause I told you to, until I change my mind to tell you not to. Anyway, I ran across a list of some 30 studies that present some clear facts to the face germ diaper wearing scenario. So read and you decide for yourself what you think.
Below are a list of studies which conclude that masks provide minimal to no protection.
