It really doesn't seem to have a political slant and certainly has valid references. Admittedly, I do like the chart, and in particular the column on breathing. I just hear too many people claiming masks don't impact their breathing at all, which I think is complete nonsense (the chart says "moderate" to "high" impact with masks, and of course with shields it's none). It also claims a higher level of blockage of large droplets by the wearer of the face shield.

Although face shields have been recommended in combination with face masks by the CDC, several studies have concluded face shields are an effective method in PPE
For Teachers - Facial visibility for teachers allows for context and emotion-perception in important interactions between students, educators, school staff and administration.
