Results from our face mask- trial are out today! Will likely be more popular with the mask believers than the non-believers, since we did find a (moderate) protective effect. bmj.com/content/386/bmj-2023… @Runar_Solberg @LGHemkens @ingeborgelg @PetterElstr

Excited to share our BMJ publication together with great colleagues at @Folkehelseinst. We randomized 4,647 adults in Norway. Our findings indicate that wearing a mask reduces the 14-day risk of respiratory infection symptoms (odds ratio 0.71; 95% CI 0.58 to 0.87; P=0.001).
