Mask Wearing: Uncovering Health Concerns & Effectiveness

Recent research has brought to light the potential health issues associated with prolonged mask-wearing during the Covid-19 pandemic. Findings suggest that long-term mask use can lead to a decrease in oxygen intake, increased carbon dioxide levels, elevated heart rate, shortness of breath, dizziness, and skin irritation. Furthermore, the effectiveness of masks in controlling the spread of the virus has been questioned, as some studies have found no significant difference in transmission rates when masks were used. The overlap between mask-related symptoms and long-Covid symptoms has also been highlighted, indicating the need for a more balanced approach to public health measures.
