So, I read parts of that study. It was a retrospective observational study and they say this about the "control" group: "Only outcome data of the untreated control group of the same community based on public reference was available but no other patient characteristics, clinical symptoms, etc". That isn't exactly a great control group. I am quite sure that that is one of the reasons why they also say, "Retrospective case series study with findings that have to be validated in prospective controlled clinical trials". This study doesn't "prove" anything, contrary to your repeated claims. And it is another preprint--preprints can say anything, they haven't been critiqued and vetted by the scientific community. You should stop making claims that the authors of the study that you point to don't make in writing--to the extent that they do make those claims, they only make them verbally in interviews in various media contexts, TV or print or bloggers. This is complete BS no matter how often you repeat it. You just continue to make a fool of yourself: And the Henry Ford studies from a few weeks ago are pretty conclusive and should not continue to be disrespected by amateurs and those opposed on political grounds. It is time for Democrats to stop killing patients. They've killed far too many already. If anyone is "killing" people, it is the governors and politicians who insist on "opening up" their economies and claiming that masks might be dangerous to wear and are "optional" despite statistics that clearly say "DON'T DO IT!" And that allow large indoor gatherings whether it be in church or weddings or political rallies or the inevitable funerals. And order their henchmen to remove "social distance" signs from seats of those gatherings, as Trump people did in Tulsa.
