You 100% know that if this study on the masks preventing COIVD-19 which completed back in June of this year proved the power of the all mighty masks then it would have been published already...

Maybe the results are not getting published because they haven't actually written the article yet? Data collection concluded in June 2020. These articles don't write themselves. Then they have to go through the peer review process. It can take a year before articles appear in press. If you'd like to know what he found, google him -- he's talked to the media about the results. Masks are not effective for protecting the wearer. But we knew that. The million dollar question is, how effective are they at protecting other people? That is, after all, why we're told to wear them.

In a Capitalist situation, an accurate Article would issue swiftly.

Whereas in a Socialist situation, an Article must be fabricated to cover as many interested bureaucratic and political entities as shan’t suffer from the truth.

Regardless of what you think should happen "in a capitalist situation" or what you think does happen "in a socialist situation," the academic publishing process takes a long time, particularly if you wish to publish in a top-tier journal.

A study recently published in Nature also cast doubts on mask effectiveness. Nature is a top-tier journal. So that seriously challenges your little pet theory about "capitalist situations" and "socialist situations."

#Academia and investigative laboratory science must be shamed for this:

6,000 Sample size

110+ Days since close of observation

Something is WRONG if they cannot or will not render conclusions on the evidence.

Especially in an urgency.

#Utterly pathetic to offer excuses for no report after a quarter year.

Should not take ONE WEEK for a basic study like this!

Just bureaucratic failure.
