Good question. Maybe because a respected scientist and vaccine developer from the US tweeted it yesterday.
I will post the link below, but allow me first to point out that even Public Health Officials from other countries are following this account. So it's certainly not regarded as any kind of 'alternative source', but rather highly reputable and knowledgeable:

Here we can read that:
- CDC is basing their theory on vaccinated people spreading the virus as easily as unvaccinated, on an Indian study that has not passed peer-review and is currently not approved in the US.
- They are also claiming the following about mask usage: Source Control = 60% effective. Personal protection: 20-30% effective.
No source has been given for the mask efficiency numbers, so unless they actually come up with one it's hard to draw any other conclusions that the numbers have been made up. Or at least spiked to look better for such a report, to push through their narrative (whatever that might be).
Doesn't that bother you (or anyone living in the US), that your own Public Health Department uses such flimsy sources - or no sources at all - to make a drastic change to the life of 50% of the population? (the vaccinated ones). Especially since they 2.5 months ago said that vaccinated people does not pose a risk - at a time where the Delta variant was very well known and had started to surge also in the US.
So what changed? New knowledge one must presume - but if so, why are they placing their trust in this vague report from India that's not even approved, and not giving up their sources for this amazing mask efficiency?
Had masks been this efficient we would after all had seen the effect all over the world in countries with high mask compliance.
