2020-09-16 | The CDC Head Said Masks Are Better Than Vaccines. Here’s What He Meant. – Mother Jones
'If you don’t like the battle analogy, you might prefer the public health concept of layering. '
'Masks may expose people to just enough virus to create an immune response—an immunological concept, known as “variolation.” It’s the same one behind vaccines. '
'By reducing the amount of virus individuals are exposed to, masks may also lessen the severity of the disease should they catch COVID-19. '
'Even worse: Is he intimating that we shouldn’t trust the vaccine because it’s being rushed for political reasons?'
'If the vaccine is only 60 percent effective, this group unwittingly could be spreading the virus far and wide. '
