@PunditPandemic @adamjkucharski There haven't been many real world studies of actual mandates, but those published show a similar effect. https://t.co/RPsUPPGx0b
@rwjdingwall @adamjkucharski The calculated effect is smaller than the physics would suggest, but that is probably due to imperfect mask wearing. It's similar to the German mask mandate findings https://t.co/RPsUPPGx0b

.@PSBaker10 None of it in the form of randomised control studies. I know these proper rigorous investigations are unfashionable amid the modern misplaced reverence for 'peer review' and meta study. And I can't think why.
