Do countries that wear masks less have an increased infection or death rate on average? NO!

You just scored an own goal!
The data table shown in your OWN link indicates the exact OPPOSITE of your above claim.
According to that data table, in Sweden they wear face masks the LEAST often out of all the countries listed there that includes Britain & Germany & Spain and the reason why that indicates the exact opposite of your claim is because Sweden has had the HIGHEST covid cases and deaths out of those countries!

"...Lockdown finally looms for Sweden as it suffers more than DOUBLE the number of Covid cases per capita than Britain, Germany or Spain..."
So, if anything, your own link indicates masks REDUCES covid spread and covid deaths.
Did you read the article?
Before you can validly demand that he reads an article, one minimum requirement would be you should read all the articles in your OWN links.
