masques : ce visuel partagé par des gendarmes sur les risques de transmission du covid-19 est-il exact ?
the gendarmerie of the french department of vosges shared a graphic on twitter that had already spread in other countries, showing the risk of being infected with covid-19 (in percentage terms) associated with different measures (wearing a mask, social distancing, both). the percentages, however, were confusing and probably invented as they could not refer to any scientific study on the matter.

the motive of the narrative was to encourage people to wear masks and social distancing, but the data provided were nonexistent
