Why didnt they just do a study using N95 masks and some control groups?? Oh that wouldnt bring the results you want. Best to just search for only negative effects you find not associated with N95 masks, stack the deck with those problems, then include N95's.

No one is wearing N95s, so my quotes are for normal masks (unless I screwed up). The quoted paper is a survey paper that reports the results of 60 something separate studies, and I simply skipped the results for N95s as virtually no one is wearing one anyway, so I felt the comparison would be unfair, because N95s restrict your breathing more than cloth masks, not less. If you read the paper, the people wearing N95s suffered the worst.
