I’m sorry, what is it that you think those links say? Neither of them advise against masking.
The first says that cloth masks are advised against for healthcare workers, because they are not up to medical requirements. They still have value in community use, because any cut in rate of transmission is valuable.
The second says that masks are not needed in outdoor settings, because the risk of transmission is lowered already. Masks would make the risk even lower still, but there is an amount of risk most people are willing to accept. Still not advising against masking.
“Generally, if you are up to date on your COVID-19 vaccinations, you do not need to wear a mask in outdoor settings. Check your local COVID-19 hospital admission level for recommendations on when to wear a mask indoors and additional precautions you can take to protect yourself from COVID-19. If you are immunocompromised or more likely to get very sick from COVID-19, learn more about how to protect yourself.”
That just isn’t the same thing as saying it’s unnecessary for vaccinated people.
Those words don’t mean the thing you say they mean.

They both say it’s unnecessary for vaccinated people, and the first one directly calls cloth masks a last resort when nothing better is available.
You can wear your security blanket if you want though, it’s a free country.
I am so tired of you people.
It probably does get tiresome to talk to strawmen all day, I understand your frustration.

Have you checked your local hospital admissions level, fam? That’s actually a neat little hyperlink if you’d look at the site.
