Peer reviewed data across 35 countries and 602 million people. The conclusion is quite interesting!

Maybe it is, Gilbert, but as you refused to even acknowledge the wealth of mask studies I shared with you on this thread I won't be reading it.

See how that works?

Next he'll be asking the Lone Ranger to stop wearing a mask ... but then everybody will know who he is .... :eek:

I know it's an old joke ... but I can't resist putting the following caption to this pix: "Well Tonto, we're surrounded by Indians and running short of ammunition. We could be facing the end of the trail here ..."

"What's this 'WE' shit paleface ?"

A quick scan shows they vaguely looked at population size but ignored population density, it even admits that the more populous countries had a better outcome from masks but then ignores it by saying that by excluding the most populous countries they get back to masks not helping.

"The Spearman’s correlation between masks and deaths was considerably higher in the West than in East European countries: 0.627 (p = 0.007) and 0.164 (p = 0.514), respectively. This difference could be associated with the fact that the most populous countries are located in West Europe. However, the correlations did not significantly change when the seven countries with populations > 20 million were excluded from the analysis"

I'd bring up more issues but lets face it GG won't ever answer any questions so whats the point?

Give us some links, GG!

Ok, here you are. Peer reviewed.

No! Not like that!! We’ll just disagree with anything and point at a convenient paragraph!

And so it goes on!

I just looked at page 1 of this 324 page thread. Same people talking people down and demanding links. I’m so glad I had the ability to adjust.

As stated by SM you refuse to read ours, I've read most of yours.

I'm happy to debate what you posted, are you? Can you show me where population density has been considered in that paper?

He doesn't want us to question anything he posts, he just wants blind acceptance.

That's the irony here, a sheep bleeting to us about how we don't think for ourselves.

I have now lost 100% of my entire immune capability, as was foretold.

If you want me, i'll be in my bubble.

Thoughts and prayers, fancy some ivermectin?
I think I may have mentioned it here, but I listened to a "Science Vs" podcast about ivermectin recently and it was quite eye-opening seeing how flimsy the evidence for it actually is.

In the influential study from Egypt that first saw interest in it explode, it was discovered that a number of the patients involved (who were listed in the "died without taking ivermectin" data) were already dead before the trial had started!

Well thats technically correct, they could also have considered those that died in the great plague!

A few facts about mask wearing “with” quality acknowledged sources for those who are not daily Beano readers, but for those there is of course no hope (apart from insults)
