Maybe yes, maybe no.
Another poster asked for the cliff notes. I gave the cliff notes. The study showed a correlation between distancing and mask wear against reduced transmission. Maybe I misread it, but it seemed that the timeline was the same, the differences were between different geographical areas. You can read it and draw your own conclusions.

The bigger question I don't see addressed is which factor (masks or social distancing) had more effect? If masks were completely ineffective but everyone stayed 100ft apart then the data would be the same as if masked worked 100% and everyone was right next to each other...

The failure in this pandemic was state governments not controlling nosocomial spread in early last year.

Here is the recent chart based on CDC data. The chart for Florida looks very similar with mandate counties well ahead of non mandate counties.
I posted the one from the Czech Republic who was praised because of low cases due to 100% mask wear. They are blowing past the USA in cases. If they did even partially what is claimed, there is no way that could be true.
I am not saying the masks increase cases, but it seems like every time a news source or Fauci points (pointed) to a country or state as “following the science” you really only had to have waited 2 weeks to see that blow up. New Mexico anyone?

I take it back. I’m just a pilot, “segmented regression analysis” that failed to “change the slope”..... they jumped from transmission to mask wear in the same paragraph.... More careful reading seems like what they are saying is mask mandates have little to no affect on mask wearing. Like you said. They weren’t talking transmission at all there.
