Though recommendations came out from the World Health Organization (WHO) for mask wearing, the WHO knew that there was no good evidence showing that they work (orange marks added):
This means that we have to look for a non-biomedical reason for the WHO to recommend masks. Using the time-old method of asking “cui bono” (“who benefits”) — the primary suspect would be that the WHO is captured by communist China, the nation that stood the most to benefit from mask use (green marks added):
If you set the price-per-mask to 50 cents, that’d mean $110 billion in revenue for China — from the 2020 mask exports. China’s influence on the WHO is greater than any other nation. When that is so, then decisions made by WHO have high probability of being “good-for-China” but only a low probability of being “good-for-the-world.”
Well spotted!
