[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like how the efficacy of masks need double blind studies that shows conclusively that they stop the spread of COVID but the dangers of mask just need vague hand waving concerns about "development." The double standard reflects motivated thinking. [/quote] A study of masks cannot be double blinded. I think the point of the references in the toolkit was that the literature on masking in schools as a whole is either methodologically deficient or does not show benefits. The toolkit actually says more controlled studies are needed. But I think the message is that public policies should require evidence. Early in the pandemic we did anything and everything because we didn't know better and didn't have vaccines. I think evidence is now required--the burden of proof should be on those mandating the policies.[/quote]
