Universal masking is actually embarrassingly ineffective.
Properly worn PPE ( like done in hospitals, takes 10 minutes to put on and will leave a mark on your face ) and Hazmats work pretty well though.
The shitty disposable surgical mask from slave labourers in india that you have kept in your pocket for 6 months does fuck all.
What a surprise. You might be right, but the onus is on you to provide evidence if you are challenging the status quo.
Then in 2020 hysteria broke out, most scientists got scared shtless and you could only publish papers that indicate that masks work even though all the empirical evidence around us show that they don't.
If anything shows how short term scientific consensus is trivially falsifiable as it depends on few influential people.
Good luck trying to get a NIH grant with the hypothesis that masks might no be effective ... It is a no-go hypothesis from the start.
Same with zoonotic vs lab origin.
