> Mindbogglingly stupid on WHO's part.
WHO is front organisations for a gaggle of medical professionals who between them have a lot of different opinions on the effectiveness of face masks. At the top sits a politician of sorts who job it is to seek a consensus on various topics. His job is comparable to asking computer professional to canvas Hacker News for the consensus position on which is better: react or vue, and report back to the masses on what they should use.
Translation: right now asking for the consensus opinion of the medical fraternity on face masks is asking for something that doesn't exist. Come back in a few years time.
