Masks are worn to protect others, NOT oneself! The surgical team don't wear masks because their patient might infect them but so they do not infect the patient. The pov of this study is not just meaningless, it is absurd!
they don't protect others , just look at the "vape" going thru & around the mask
and that's particles we can see.
no one (hyperbole) handles mask correctly , everybody adjusts them while wearing them
they touch a door handle then later they adjust their mask , a warm & moist environment , a literal petri dish on their face,
so yes masks cause infection
cloth masks have a 97%
failure rate at prevention
infections are going up because of mask mandates
