RC one, thanks for the quotation from the study in your comment #52. It certainly proved your argument. I'm bookmarking that for later use. :)

Many of us have known this from decades of hands-on experience with PPE but have failed to educate those millions upon millions of irrationally frightened people that they have been lied to -- persistently lied to for over a year -- by their beloved "experts" who damn well know that masks are completely -- totally and without doubt -- ineffective against transmission of a respiratory virus.

When I got my hands on the first surgical mask last April, the instructions on the packaging said the mask does not provide protection against viruses. I've read a bunch of the studies for and against masks. At the end of the day it results that matter. After a year I haven't seen any evidence that masks work. There has been some false alarms that they do, but given enough time it turns out to be BS. Germany mandated everyone wear medical masks earlier this year and cases sky rocketed.

Thank you for responding, RC.

That mandated masking is in place or is not has nothing to do with a virus mutating. That's what viruses do ... they mutate over time until a significant proportion of a population has developed sufficient antibodies and the virus can no longer sustain itself. Truly above all else, masks have nothing to do with this. Cheers!

Scientists, engineers, and other highly technical people often are not grammarians. This includes me. I have written technical papers that most people did not understand the technical content but that did not mean I was wrong.

I didn't say that it did. I'm just saying that Brazil is in the position it's in because Brazil was lead by a fool that was convinced that Covid was a hoax. Brazil is screwed because Brazil listened to the Anti-Mask, Anti-Vaccine, Covid Denial Team.

So you wear a mask to protect you and the public?

OK. that’s very noble.

So the mask catches particulate matter (drops, saliva, moisture of some type) that keeps it from being inhaled by you or exhaled by you to “attack” others. That’s what I gather by your answer.

Can I ask a few more then?

1. Where do you keep your mask? Paper bag (sterile), sterile pouch, box of reusables?

2. Do you wash your hands before you put your mask on? Don’t want to contaminate it, right? Then put gloves on to keep from contaminating the mask.

3. Once the mask is on do you leave it in place or do you adjust it with contaminated hands? As you go through a store or try to keep the fog from your glasses.

4. If you touch the inside (side facing you) do you immediately dispose of the mask? (It’s now unable to be placed on your face due to cross contamination)

5. On removal of the mask do you glove up or wash your hands immediately afterwards and place your mask in the sterile bag or pouch?

6. If the outside is “keeping the stuff out” you realize that it is now concentrated on the outer surface of the mask. Since it is a warm and moist environment due to your breath it is great for breeding bacteria as well as preserving viral transport. It’s a nice collection pot of all kinds of stuff.

7. The repeated use of a mask without UV, Virex or sterilization is just applying concentrated boluses of bacteria and viruses. Staph loves that stuff as do other skin contaminants. (you may notice women are especially susceptible to “mask acne” due to their use of makeup and packing their face with bacteria)

8. Over 85% of Covid cases used masks “all the time” according to the CDC.

9. Look at the date of this study. It actually states that “mask should work” ...... but don’t. I know the source of the article is kind of a joke but humor me and read it.

10. https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/26/5/19-0994_article?fbclid=IwAR3o4xyKoXICVDwXOWxJ7oOeX8WqXczTz2O_ElartL0SWwQ2x9YXczohqbI

11. I think you should wear a mask if you want. I think your entire family should as well. You all should self isolate and avoid any possibility of Covid exposure and infection.

I choose not to, unless mandated by the owner of the facility that I will use in order not to trespass on private property.

I feel nothing but sympathy for the fear that you and others have. I have nothing but contempt for the bureaucrats and their paycheck pension patriots/praetorian guards that threaten us with weapons and loss of freedom for this lie that is no different than the 2009 flu that actually killed young people.

It’s a novel virus. It does what they do....it kills the vulnerable and now may infact be made more deadly by a half assed studied mRNA viral vaccine that may actually sensitize people to mount an even stronger response to the infection and actually that is what kills most people. Not the bug but the body’s response to the bug... cytokine storm.

I know that I’m not reliable but others are thinking the same thing because of what happened to the RSV vaccine and other mRNA vaccine/diseases... ummmm not good my friend.

Here’s the tell..... look at the date on this study proposal and report.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7901381/

You might ask why I’m concerned and my qualifications. I read a lot about this stuff and have for about 40 years. It’s a free country (kind of) so make your choice and enjoy.

Great questions, all.

I posted, the other day....about going to the ladies room, at a ball game, recently.

(We did NOT wear masks, and, neither did at least half of the crowd.)

The gal in the stall next to me decided to swing her mask around, while doing her business. I could see it flying around, under the stall dividers. Gross.

She proceded to flush, open her door, and replace her mask....on her FACE...to wash her hands.

No telling what kind of germs she picked up...or distributed, with that activity. And, this was just a few minutes of her time spent at the ball park. Imagine how germ laden that thing was, by the end of the evening. 🤢🦠

I wouldn’t think it would be the diameter of the threads that matters, but rather the diameter of the gaps or holes between the threads.

Struck me as questionable also. Are the people who write these important documents just not that smart? Or do they think that we are stupid?

Clicking that link

Shows it was retracted

But clicking this link shows it’s still there

From: “The Fauci- COVID-19 Dossier” - Dr. David E. Martin

“Through April 2020, the official recommendation by the Journal of the American Medical Association was
unambiguous.

“Face masks should not be worn by healthy individuals to protect themselves from acquiring respiratory infection
because there is no evidence to suggest that face masks worn by healthy individuals are effective in preventing people
from becoming ill.”30
Part of that lack of evidence in fact showed that cloth facemasks actually increased influenza-linked illness.31

In contravention to established science, States, municipalities, and businesses have violated the legal requirements for
the promulgation of medical counter measures during a public health emergency stating a “belief” that face masks limit
the spread of SARS CoV-2. To date, not a single study has confirmed that a mask prevented the transmission of, or the
infection by SARS CoV-2.

All parties mandating the use of facemasks are not only willfully ignoring established science but are engaging in what
amounts to a whole population clinical trial. This conclusion is reached by the fact that facemask use and COVID-19
incidence are being reported in scientific opinion pieces promoted by the United States Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention and others.32

Social distancing of up to 6 feet has been promoted as a means of preventing person-to-person transmission of
influenza-like viruses. While one study hypothesized that infection could happen in a 6 foot range, the study explicitly
states that person-to-person transfer was not tested and viability of the virus at 6 feet was not even a subject of the
investigation.33 That did not stop the misrepresentation of the study to be used as the basis for an unverified medical
counter measure of social distancing. To date, no study has established the efficacy of social distancing to modify the
transmission of SARS CoV-2. Public health officials have referenced:

of any population prevented the transmission of, or the infection by SARS CoV-2.

Fauci/COVID-19 Dossier CC-BY-NC-SA Dr. David E. Martin 26
It is unlawful under the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 41 et seq., to advertise that a product or service can prevent, treat, or cure
human disease unless you possess competent and reliable scientific evidence, including, when appropriate, wellcontrolled human clinical studies, substantiating that the claims are true at the time they are made. As a result, every
party promoting the use of face masks is violating the FTC Act.

All of these laws have been broken. All relevant authorities in the United States must cease and desist the use of face
masks until the matters above are rectified.”

The website says the paper has been retracted for several reasons.
