Mask mandates have always been more about showing compliance than keeping people safe, and the CDC’s latest embarrassing disclosure further proves it.
"The “fact-check” even cited data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) about the effectiveness of masks against COVID-19, where the CDC insisted, “Cloth masks not only effectively block most large droplets (i.e., 20-30 microns and larger), but they can also block the exhalation of fine droplets and particles,” and “cloth mask materials can also reduce wearers’ exposure to infectious droplets through filtration.”
Yet the same CDC quietly admitted on Friday that the thin cloth masks the agency and its corporate media allies spent the last two years cheering actually “provide the least protection” against COVID-19. It was “the first time the C.D.C. has explicitly addressed” the relative ineffectiveness of cloth masks, according to The New York Times."

Idiots
The CDC, or those who listen to their advice?
Por qué no los dos?
Yes
I can't wait to see what our organization does and what emails they'll send out when the shit hits the fan. They already look like idiots trying to comply with the ever moving target of the CDC. They changed their mask "rule" last week. When one enters their facilities, you have to be wearing an n95 mask you bring or they provide one for you.🙄🤡 Edit; you can no longer wear cloth masks or bandanas etc.
They ALWAYS have ulterior motives. Just because they backed off cloth masks DOESN'T mean they gave up on all masks.
Even though, IIRC, N95 boxes clearly state(d) that they don't prevent transmission of the coof, they push them.
From the article: ". . ., We can’t let them memory-hole their old narrative, but we also can’t afford to be fooled into the coming narrative that everyone from kindergarteners to marching bands must now strap on a medical-grade N95 mask until this never-ending pandemic ends., . . ."
The insane BS doesn't end until common sense, resistance and noncompliance ends it.
Ok, then the CDC needs to be shut down. I'll never believe a word they say again.
Not that I ever did. Lol
They want everyone in triple n95s that’s why
exactly...they just want to make their china partners rich again....
Makes me angry because early on in the plandemic, I know women who cut and sewed hundreds of masks for healthcare workers because they thought they were helping. I donated fabric and bought hundreds of yards - maybe thousands of yards of elastic. Kind of embarrassed but kind of not because I too was trying to help.
