Not out of Stanford?  Did you even read the paper?  Wait....don't answer that as we already know that you didn't.  Because if you had you would have seen the following in the title (with my emphasis added cause you're so dense).

Facemasks in the COVID-19 era: A health hypothesis

Baruch Vainshelboim * Cardiology Division, Veterans Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System/Stanford University, Palo Alto, CA, United States

I realize that the most complicated thing you probably read is the USA Today but here's a news flash for you.  Go back and read the quote from the Stanford SCHOOL OF MEDICINE that he wasn't a member of the faculty there.  Ya see, Stanford University is a little bit more than just their school of medicine.  They actually do other things, including having a Cardiology Division in the Veteran Affairs Palo Alto Health Care System.  The guy has a PhD in pulmonary rehabilitation. And the pulmunary system relates to the part of the body called your lungs.....and masks are something between the outside air and the lungs.....I am trying to make this easier for you.  

But here's the real issue here with you mind numbed sheeple.....not a word about the study itself, no critique of the 67 citations, yes, he had 67 scientific studies that he referenced in the paper......no presentation of peer reviewed papers that came to a different conclusion......not one salient, intelligent fact or thought.  You just parrot the left wing media with their logical fallacy of ad hominum attacks of the author because they can't even begin to respond to the weight of his arguments or the data that brought him to this conclusion.   

So no, I am not thin skinned.  I am deeply concerned for our country that far too many people like you can and do vote, which is your right.  But it would be nice if you would take a moment at least once a day and think critically, examine your beliefs, compare them to the real world and how things really work and for crying out loud stop believing everything the govt and the media tell you.  But if not, you can join Goofy in the category of those that love to be humiliated.
