But what about the ocular evidence?
The fear that risk compensation (ie: using masks creating false sense of security) may threaten public health doesn't seem valid from studies in other aspects of risk behaviour. #MaskUp #covid19 #publichealth https://t.co/2n5LZCRFbV

An important rejoinder to the oft-cited claim by sceptics that wearing a mask leads to a false sense of security in which we engage in riskier behaviour, such as reducing hand washing. There's no evidence of this, in fact the evidence is to the contrary.

Risk compensation is one of those things that always sounds like a big deal, but never really turns out to matter much. Focus on the main protective measures and behavios (seatbelts, PReP, comprehensive sex education, masks, physical distance etc).
