The real issue with mask mandates and trying to compare states/areas is the actual mask compliance.
It has been known for a long time that masking during flu season reduces cases.

I'll take a look at that article later. But the one thing about masks is that most people are wearing cloth masks. Those are not effective. I guess the surgical masks are what work to some extent. But, as far as I know, most people don't have access to those.
