The NCBI study begins with the following abstract:

Many countries across the globe utilized medical and non-medical facemasks as non-pharmaceutical intervention for reducing the transmission and infectivity of [the] coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19). Although, scientific evidence supporting facemasks’ efficacy is lacking, adverse physiological, psychological and health effects are established. It has been hypothesized that facemasks have compromised safety and efficacy profile and should be avoided from use. The current article comprehensively summarizes scientific evidence[s] with respect to wearing facemasks in the COVID-19 era, providing proper information for public health and decision making.

The study concludes (emphasis added):

The existing scientific evidence[s] challenge the safety and efficacy of wearing facemask as preventive intervention for COVID-19. The data suggest that both medical and non-medical facemasks are ineffective to block human-to-human transmission of viral and infectious disease such SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19, supporting against the usage of facemasks. Wearing facemasks has been demonstrated to have substantial adverse physiological and psychological effects. These include hypoxia, hypercapnia, shortness of breath, increased acidity and toxicity, activation of fear and stress response, rise in stress hormones, immunosuppression, fatigue, headaches, decline in cognitive performance, predisposition for viral and infectious illnesses, chronic stress, anxiety and depression. Long-term consequences of wearing facemask can cause health deterioration, developing and progression of chronic diseases and premature death. Governments, policy makers and health organizations should utilize [a] proper and scientific evidence-based approach with respect to wearing facemasks, when the latter is considered as preventive intervention for public health.

Masks are:

1) a sign of submission, subversion and subjugation
2) mandated in order to dehumanize
3) virtue signaling devices
4) meant to provide constant reinforcement of fear
5) used to destroy community, friends and family normal communication
6) implemented to create isolation, confusion, anxiety, destroy human connectivity, trust and interactions
7) mandated to exacerbate illness
8) intended to aid in the abandonment of the belief and reliance on our immune systems
9) intended to refute integrous science
10) signal to positions of power that you are willing to give up all of your rights and freedoms based on anything they say, even if it is a BIG FAT LIE!

Either way; wear the mask or take the shot you’re umm, you know ...

There’s a mask meme going around showing that African slaves were “masked” to mute their protests and destroy their humanity.

It does not survive long on Fakebook, though.

No kidding! /dripping sarcasm

I guess all those hours of being in a M17/M40/MCU-2/P gas mask during MOPP level 3 and 4 shorten a lot military members' life span.

I will have to visit the VA to make my pansy-@#@ disability claim. Maybe some people can claim their nut nut check from Social Security for being traumatize by the mask during Covid.

I don’t wear one.

But some people live where the government will trash their lives if they don’t. I have a problem with that.

The NCBI/NLM does not conduct or publish studies.

It is the catalog of the National Library of Medicine, which lists things published by various journals. They do not review or endorse the papers they catalog.

This paper, also, is not a “study” in any way, shape, or form. It is an hypothesis, presented for discussion and testing.

The journal Medical Hypotheses, which did publish this speculative article last year, asked for it to be retracted, and it was.

Masks turn neighbors into strangers and enemies.

If you click through to the actual study the Gateway Pundit quotes then you will find it has been retracted - at the request of the publisher. I wonder how much pressure was brought to bear to achieve this!

The Gateway Pundit articles confirms that not one MSM outlet so much as mentioned the study.

This is what we’re up against. Anything that doesn’t advance their aims to literally buried.
