No matter how much scientists and experts throw words nobody understands around in an attempt to convince us we know something, surgical masks alone and surgical masks worn over N95 masks with visors did not protect from the viral outbreak in the hospital where I work. /1
In Jan-Feb 2020 we had what was called the flu outbreak. We closed units that were affected to control the outbreak. Not once any unit was closed during 4-5 outbreaks of the virus we had so far despite control measures. /2
It is obvious to all on the clinical side, we cannot control the virus. It will spread. You will or will not get sick. For majority we have seen with positive tests, it is an unnoticeable condition. They were well and healthy. We wouldn’t notice it in a regular year. /3
The one person who I know wound up in ICU had an unexplained origin knee infection requiring hospitalization a year or two before. One patient who died was himself ready to die of cancer and the virus was a secondary contributing factor. /4
Whatever everybody had in Jan-Feb 2020 was a more serious disease - people were sicker. There was one death albeit post recovery after isolation precaution lift. Also a cancer patient. /5
