The actual study is a joke, there are no controls in that study- no demographic controls, no control population And the guy is a real nut job, did you read his study about how vaccines make you magnetic?

Why do mask mandates cause more COVID deaths, you might ask? The study suggests there's a simple explanation: the facemask tissue retains the virus after the droplets evaporate and then the virus is re-inhaled from a very short distance.
I'm sure the left-wing censors in the government and social media will do everything to prevent this study from wide dissemination, so read it while you can.
Aside from the misplaced clinical and causal implications, there is nothing new here. The study demonstrates that the big cities had higher Covid 19 death rates during this time frame. (Delta) The 2 biggest factors being population density and high medical risks.

They adjusted for age in their multiple sensitivity analyses.
Population density does not correlate with death rate.
There are many potentially confounding presets. For instance the specific time frame and location picked.
And then the fact that many if not most more critically ill rural patients get transferred to the big city as they deteriorate.

All observational studies have many confounding biases, and you can never adjust for all of them. Didn't stop the CDC using observational/ecologic studies (and indeed doing their own) as evidence for mask efficacy.
In fact, CDC has no evidence for mask efficacy. No one does.
In fact, now the morons at the CDC are advocating masking for monkeypox.

Mask efficacy will be all over the place based on many variables.
Time frame and location during the Pandemic, along with current dominant variant.
Risk factors of the population, including density, interactivity and medical status.
Common sense dictates that people pay attention to timely local trends, and of course their own risk factors.
This thread is a perfect example of what happens when you "do your own research."
Interesting. Blindly following the dictates of “public health” experts who are actually political operatives literally kills people. As the study shows. Show us the study that shows your precious mask mandates saved lives. We’ll wait. Forever, because there is no such study.
