Folks, it's almost like Duke missed the fact that the Fox piece is conflating influenza and covid.
They look at 78 studies of which 2 are about covid. One of those 2 studies says masks work (https://www.science.org/doi/full/10.1126/science.abi9069#sec-2) and the other complains about the data (https://www.acpjournals.org/doi/full/10.7326/M20-6817)
The other 76 studies are about other infections, mostly influenza, and no one has ever told you to wear a mask for influenza.
Folks, don't get your medical advice from anonymous people on social media. Get it from professionals: "This systematic review and meta-analysis of 18 randomized controlled trials across different exposure settings and age groups provides support for the public health policy of face mask use to limit the spread of respiratory infections, such as COVID-19. Our analysis suggests that face masks can decrease the probability of spreading and contracting a respiratory infection and can be particularly useful when combined with other personal protection methods, especially at the community level." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9714953/
