Very interesting article. I have to wonder if it'll convince any of the more vocal nay-sayers though, either here on ToTV or elsewhere. One of the quotes, "He (Dean Blumberg) added that N95 masks do an even better job at protecting people from the virus, but they are in short supply and are needed for healthcare professionals", seemed (to me) to be a probable reason that Dr. Fauci & others did not recommend wearing masks for everyone, originally. Once the mask shortage improved, he did change his advice - which some promptly called flip-flopping.
