Fox News: Masks Don’t Slow the Spread of Covid-19

Fox News host Martha MacCallum made the claim on March 9 that masks probably weren’t helping in the ways being promoted by the U.S. government, albeit belatedly.
“Yeah, I always think we’re going to look back at these studies and wonder about the true effectiveness of masks and whether or not they really did make a difference. I think that story continues to be studied and we’re learning more about it to be sure,” MacCallum said.
But studies have shown repeatedly that masks, while imperfect, really do help slow the spread of covid-19, as Gizmodo reported back in September.
