Yesterday i asked the organizers of the local #June14 #FeministStrike, if there will be #MaskBloc at their march.

Their response: Nope, we didn't have time to organise one. That i should organise it, they said, to later add, if I wear a mask it would be safe for me to attend, "as research shows this is enough to protect oneself".

Ugh. This of course needs a debunking. But where to even begin?

Allow me to start with the blatant misinformation. No, that is precisely NOT what research shows.
