I was at the Hydro tonight and cannot remember seeing a mask among the crowd at all. There are things hanging around like ghosts or artifacts of the time of marks like before the main act came on there was an automatic announcement about face mask wearing being compulsory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty signs at the Usher Hall saying the government recommends you wear a mask. Still have the perspex screens up at the bar so not totally normal I suppose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moreover, the moderate positive correlation between mask usage and deaths in Western Europe also suggests that the universal use of masks may have had harmful unintended consequences. Now whilst I have my suspicions that masking could potentially make covid worse, I have no proof and this guy has no proof either. He's stretching the statistics here to say the very least. But what is really raising a red flag is the journal he's published this in. Good covid research is of high general interest in every population and anything good should easily be getting published in good quality, high-impact journals. This journal has a very low impact factor indeed which is VERY suspicious for such important stuff like covid research. Now I'm not one for saying that impact factors are the be-all and end-all and in fact I have little respect for researchers chasing impact factors, but this impact factor is so low that it is indicative of a dodgy journal and you can't trust the peer-review process in this case. Impact factor of 1.15...that's low. Not a great journal. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their website is interesting. A guy from Stanford appears to be their editor-in-chief. They say "Cureus does not consider impact factor to be a reliable or useful metric of individual article importance." Well, given their impact factor of 1.15 it's not surprising they feel this way (although I actually agree in principle). Absolutely. I've published in a few niche places before with impact factors lower than this - but that's when discussing an extremely niche area (the rise of the sodium carbonate industry in 18th century Glasgow, for example, was an off-beat work of mine that ended up in a Scottish history journal; my work on cellulose structure in much higher journals) For Covid and masks, there must be fifty journals with higher IFs. Chances are these other journals rejected the paper and he resubmitted it till he found someone to take it. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elixir Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Again, what's happening in China is *fucking mental*. I see the WHO have finally spoken up about it. Perhaps time for so-called human rights groups as well? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
