Oh I guess the mods decided that my comment needed to be deleted for some reason. For reference I just said masks aren't particularly effective, which the cochrane review showed, and that people shouldn't be concerned with other people's decisions given that low efficacy. I'll probably be banned next for simply stating medically proven facts and the echo chamber and continue unabated.

Medical or surgical masks

Seven studies took place in the community, and two studies in healthcare workers. Compared with wearing no mask, wearing a mask may make little to no difference in how many people caught a flu-like illness (9 studies; 3507 people); and probably makes no difference in how many people have flu confirmed by a laboratory test (6 studies; 3005 people). Unwanted effects were rarely reported, but included discomfort.

Obviously these are the kinds of masks most people are referring to and they make little to no difference.

Why would the moderators delete facts like this? What's the real intent here?

Edit: Oh my gosh, the mod log gives me insight it was automod because so many users downvoted me for telling the truth. Thanks everyone.
