There are no studies that I know of that have disproved... At the same time, there is a great deal of science that calls into question...

We've been over the proof vs belief thing. Just looking for a little consistency here. Goose, meet gander.
You won't go along with masks if their efficacy hasn't been definitively proven but you're hot for HCQ even though its efficacy hasn't been definitively proven. You believe one has been proven enough for you to act but not the other because you favor one but not the other. You are free, of course, to believe whatever you like but recognize that proof and belief are not the same thing and the later is not science.
HCQ will have definitive proof whenever the RCTs and the FDA say so. Until then, it's belief.

At the same time, there is a great deal of science that calls into question the efficacy of cloth masks worn by the public, at-large, as a safe and effective preventative against spread.

Like what?

Oh, that's right. You don't provide proof. Just baseless assertions.
