...The study’s abstract states that it “will be a two-arm, unblinded, randomised controlled trial” that “will include adults (>18 years of age) without prior confirmed COVID-19 or symptoms suggestive of COVID-19, who spend more than three hours per day outside the home with exposure to other people. “
Six thousand participants were randomly assigned to use face masks or not for a 30-day period during the pandemic. The results would be based on the difference in the number of individuals infected with the virus within the two study groups.
"This is the world's largest study of its kind and is expected to be included as an important factor in the basis for government decisions regarding the use of masks," Bundgaard said.
Studies getting rejected by top medical journals isn't entirely out of the ordinary, especially if the data set is deficient. As Berlingske pointed out, the study was conducted at a time when COVID-19 infections were falling sharply in Denmark. If there were too few infections in the study, unambiguous conclusions would be difficult or impossible to draw.
As of Oct. 21, that study has yet to be published, and one of the researchers on the study, Thomas Lars Benfield, recently said that the findings would be released “as soon as a journal is brave enough,” suggesting that the results would cause controversy.
Benfield has since walked back those comments, saying, "The quote [is] a bit out of context. The article is being reviewed by a respected journal. We have decided not to publish data until the article has been accepted."

To be fair, how many people who aren't either involved in the going-on at the southern border, or obsessed with same, can reasonably be expected to be familiar with the slag used by those involved in human smuggling across said border?
Hell, I didn't know what the President was talking about last night. I assumed I'd mis-heard him. Which is plausible, given that I was preparing dinner at the time. Didn't know what a "coyote" was in this context until I saw the memes this morning.
Every business has its lingo. For instance, if I say to someone that we're going to squirt the bird at 7pm, I wouldn't expect a corporate attorney to know what that means.
This one is really a stretch.

She's an ignorant piece of **** who couldn't take 3 seconds and google the term, and accept the fact that maybe Orange Man knows WTF he's talking about.
But no, she had to spout hate and ignore the issue [as liberals do] and let everyone how ******* stupid and out-of-touch elected officials are.

^^ I would say that anyone publicly criticizing/commenting on immigration (specifically across our southern border) as she did should familiarize themselves with even the most basic lingo. I see this as akin to speaking out about inner-city issues, but not knowing what "the hood" is. (Is it a sweatshirt, is it the unibomber, my god what is it ?!! )

Like people trying to tell me about the economy, but don't know the difference between the deficit and the debt. And this seems to be fairly common of people on both sides of the aisle.
