Also, aren't these the same people who told us to wear gators and other face coverings that they knew would be ineffective because they wanted to save the good stuff for first responders? Granted, that is not the worst reason for lying, which is what it was, but the fact is they were lying to the public. Which always leads to the subsequent question were/are you also lying about X? They opened Pandora's Box, now they have to deal with it.
I disagree with this take.
Cloth masks were more effective than nothing, especially when layered
While not very effective against incoming airborne viruses; they were effective at blocking outgoing droplets that potentially carried the virus before it became airborne.
An uninfected person in a low risk area would not benefit from a cloth mask.
As a national policy, advising people to wear layered cloth masks until surgical and the n95 masks became widely available was not a lie. It was sound policy. Even though some would not directly benefit, we all benefited because the spread of the virus was slowed.
