US Director for the Center for Infection and Immunity admits withholding evidence in JANUARY that even simple masks reduce community spread by 60%, in order to protect supplies for healthcare workers (including his wife). @33:30
Speaker is Ian Lipkin, US Director of the Center for Infection and Immunity.
Excerpt...
So people who use facemasks in a consistent way had a 70% reduction in community transmission and if they used them intermittently it was 60%. I found that impressive and we talked about it but there was no access to facemasks and so I was I thought a long time about trying to publish this because if I did that, if we did that, it would have deprived you know people on the front lines because there weren’t sufficient facemasks from getting access to those and it would have made things worse, so I didn’t proceed with that. So that’s something that unfortunately is going to go in the memoirs rather than in the written record.
So there ya go.

wtf? They could have said use or make cloth masks. This is almost criminal.
