I asked them how it is with colds now that everyone is wearing masks.
The assistant said that they notice a drastic decline of infections and other doctors also do. Kids don’t have colds so much, or infections with other dangerous bacteria. (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection is caused by a type of staph bacteria that's become resistant to many of the antibiotics used to treat ordinary staph infections.)
She said that it’s clear that masks and other hygiene measures work a lot and we as Western Europeans should learn a lot from it for the future.

So much for masks don’t work.
Yoooooo I have definitely noticed this in my life as well. No one in my family has been sick since January, when my daughter and I had the flu. In the beginning of corona I stocked up on medicines expecting we would get sick, that’s what people were told to prepare for. The only medicine I’ve ended up using is pedialyte and that’s just for my hangover sometimes.
