Yep, they had a study to tell us the blindingly obvious.
Plastic face shields allow nearly 100 per cent of tiny airborne droplets released by coronavirus-infected patients to escape through visors, a study has warned.
I feel a facepalm coming on. We are surrounded by cretins. That anyone could believe that these useless bits of plastic serve any purpose whatsoever is worrying. We have regressed to a more superstitious age where people wore talismen to ward off evil spirits.
Yet here we are in the 21st Century being bombarded with this idiocy. No one with a grain of intelligence needed a study to determine this. Just as no one with a grain of intelligence and an understanding of the term “microscopic” needs a study to tell us that face nappies won’t work either, but the masses are obediently wearing their talismen in the hope of warding off the evil virus and criticising those of us with the intelligence to see through the stupidity, telling us that we are “selfish” or “spreading the virus” (or some equally inane mantra). Maybe so. But at least I’m not spreading rampant idiocy.
But modelling has now cast doubt on claims they work, after a computer simulation…
This is not science, you utter morons!
Truly, we have entered clownworld.
It’s worse than clownworld, we’re living in infant world with everything being useless pretend virtue signalling and bullying
Virus is 0.125 microns, N-95/FFP3 mask pore size is 0.300 microns; how a visor would ever have been deemed effective is beyond me – yet that’s what GP was wearing when my mum (80) managed to see him
Visor on helmet is to stop wind and rain, hail, flies, gravel hitting face – like a wind-shield

Studies have shown that spacemen and divers who use these face shields do not last long.
Where do I get my money?
“To escape through visors”
For God’s sake – why would micron sized particles attempt to batter their way THROUGH a piece of plastic, when it’s far, far easier to just go round the sides?
Am I being a bit dim here? All these studies about the effectiveness of face nappies versus the ineffectiveness of plastic visors – are they saying that plastic visors have microscopic holes or pores through which the virus can pass, whereas cloth face nappies contain NO microscopic holes or pores, thereby preventing the spread of the virus? Is that the claim?
That nails the garbage being spewed by Gov’t and their Policy Based Evidence paid for ‘experts’
Visors bad: people can see faces and hear (lip read) each other – too ‘normal’
Truth is both are sh1t against a virus, but ‘experts’ love money
