A Nature news feature. Very readable and describes the scientific consensus and the physical explanation of how they work. (2/9) nature.com/articles/d4158…
British Medical Journal, from 2008, a massive meta-analysis that analyzes 138 studies together: masks worked against the original SARS and other respiratory viruses. (3/9) bmj.com/content/336/76…
Lancet, 2020, another similar meta analysis looked at 172 studies. Masks worked against MERS, SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV2. (4/9) thelancet.com/journals/lance…
Lancet, 2021, a study of over 370,000 Americans (5/9) thelancet.com/journals/landi…
JAMA, 2021, an article covering some of the most rigorous studies about mask-wearing, table included. jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/… (6/9) 
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2022, a study that collected data about 20 million people over six continents (7/9) pnas.org/doi/abs/10.107…
Science, 2022, large, cluster-randomized trial in Bangladesh involving hundreds of thousands of people (although mostly men) over a 2-month period (8/9) science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
