Scientific Evidence claims Face Masks offer insufficient protection against illness and virus
There have been extensive randomized controlled trial (RCT) studies, and meta-analysis reviews of RCT studies, which all show that
Face Masks, Face Covering or Respirators DO NOT WORK to prevent respiratory influenza-like illnesses, or respiratory illnesses believed to be transmitted by droplets and aerosol particles, like COVID-19.
Listed below are medical literature that unanimously agree wearing face masks, surgical masks and respirators (N95 or similar) do not reduce the risk of contracting a verified illness.
1 Long, Y
Year: 2020
A total of six RCTs involving 9,171 participants were included. There were no statistically significant differences in preventing laboratory-confirmed influenza, laboratory-confirmed respiratory viral infections, laboratory-confirmed respiratory infection, and influenza-like illness using N95 respirators and surgical masks. Meta-analysis indicated a protective effect of N95 respirators against laboratory-confirmed bacterial colonization (RR = 0.58, 95% CI 0.43-0.78). The use of N95 respirators compared with surgical masks is not associated with a lower risk of laboratory-confirmed influenza.

2 Radonovich, L. J
Year: 2019
Among 2862 randomized participants, 2371 completed the study and accounted for 5180 HCW-seasons. Among outpatient health care personnel, N95 respirators vs medical masks as worn by participants in this trial resulted in no significant difference in the incidence of laboratory-confirmed influenza.

Year: 2017
Self-reported assessment of clinical outcomes was prone to bias. Evidence of a protective effect of masks or respirators against verified respiratory infection (VRI) was not statistically significant.

4 Smith, J. D
Year: 2016
We identified six clinical studies. In the meta-analysis of the clinical studies, we found no significant difference between N95 respirators and surgical masks in associated risk of (a) laboratory-confirmed respiratory infection, (b) influenza-like illness, or (c) reported work-place absenteeism.

There were 17 eligible studies. None of the studies established a conclusive relationship between mask/respirator use and protection against influenza infection.

N95-masked health-care workers (HCW) were significantly more likely to experience headaches. Face mask use in HCW was not demonstrated to provide benefit in terms of cold symptoms or getting colds.
