Lockdowns, Masks, and Vaccines Have All Been Complete Failures, But That’s Not the Real Problem
American Thinke.com ^ | January 24, 2022 | William Sullivan

It’s becoming ever more apparent that the government health intelligentsia’s efforts to protect Americans from COVID have been a complete failure. That’s why you’ve heard nothing about its success.

But here’s what we do know for sure:

There’s never been any convincing evidence that wearing a loose-fitting rag over your face stops viral spread, but if that doesn’t give one pause to question the efficacy of the practice, then there’s always the incontrovertible fact that there isn’t a single place on the planet which can be pointed toward as the beacon of evidence for the efficacy of mask mandates.

Regarding the insanity of mass masking, Ian Miller continues doing the yeoman’s work of using government-collected data to produce very convincing arguments that the cloth masks and mandates are useless, in both easily digestible graphics and prose, on his Substack and Twitter account -- both of which I recommend. You won’t be shocked to learn that the media has, thus far, been uninterested in reporting any of it.

Those who brought us the six-foot distancing standard have openly admitted that they invented it without any real scientific premise -- it just sounded good, and they thought it was something people could easily follow. And societal lockdowns in general, once just a matter of “the science,” have proven to be more counterproductive than productive. Italy, which is often credited as having “invented” the concept of a national lockdown” in the West, implemented “some of the strictest lockdown measures in the world,” according to Thomas Fazi and Toby Green at UnHerd. They continue:

Science?

Math is tough.

.3 micron sized VIRUS cannot be stopped by THREAD COUNT where adjacent filter material fibers are several microns apart. Mosquitos are not stopped by a chain-linked fence.

Masks are ONLY designed to inhibit much larger BACERIA.

Cite any peer review study accomplished PRIOR TO 2019 that proves any passive mask stops ANY virus. Everything after 2019 is 99.99% false to support a false narrative.

Two weeks to flatten the curve, social distancing, 24/7 masking, 'vaccines', twice a week testing, making appointments for eating, no social activities, remote classes, and other insanity have done wonders for my son's college since August 2021.

Six suicides and likely not a single covid death. The administration refuse to see the elephant in the room.

In Los Angeles, I still see people walking about outdoors with masks, even when there's no one else around. Then they see me coming, and they cross the street to social distance from me.

About a third of the people I see outdoors still wear masks.

It's not just for health. It's become a fashion statement. And like many fashion statements, it's tied in with virtue signaling.

"Look how progressive I am! I'm STILL wearing a mask! And I'm social distancing too! Aren't I super special?!"

Today is the first day of the Virginia EO to opt out of mask mandates. I expect plenty of people who got Cs, Ds and Fs in high school math to be wailing and crying about it.

These mandates and COVID fear are killing people and robbing others of life.

Masks. Do. Not. Work. At least, not for the purpose claimed, which is to “stop the spread” of the COVID-19 Wuhan virus.

The COVID-19 virus is now endemic, that is, everywhere. There are highly effective means of combatting the onslaught of the disease, and even some pretty effective means to CURE the malady, but only if the measures are brought into play early in the course of the disease, and carried out to the extent necessary to STOP the effective course of the disease.

The consumption of some form of zinc ion, and a Zn++ ionophore that effectively opens the coronavirus up so the zinc may then reach the protein structures within the virus particles, prevents the particle from replicating. The disease is halted in its tracks, and this works with EVERY variant of coronavirus out there, including those that cause the “common cold”, giving the body time to come up with an effective antibody for that specific virus.

The acquired immunity is vastly superior to any vaccine yet prepared for the purpose, and while it may wane over time, maintaining the zinc ionophore regimen will prevent future outbreaks of the illness.

Or if you want to produce a really effective means to reduce the amount of COVID-19 virus out there, not much beats fresh air and sunshine. Where fresh air and sunshine cannot be brought to bear directly, the use of both UV-C light sources and ozone generators in closed spaces is also highly effective, but must be used with suitable precautions, because either of these methods is also destructive to some degree of most other living things. Including pets, plants and people.

There is a mask you can buy that has all the signs from the movie “They Live”. Obey, Don’t Question The Government, Consume, etc
Make me kinda wish for a return to masks. For Christmas, I bought my wife the most outlandish Trump mask I could find.

we can and should go back to something close to what life looked like before.

Uh, no, we should go back to EXACTLY what life looked like before. Anything less is an acceptance of, and capitulation to, tyranny.

The ONLY mask that work to some extent are N95 masks. They work to keep the sick person from spreading their spittle when they cough. So, that it does not fly across the room.

Even N95 masks do not work to keep you from breathing in covid-19 virus molecules. Even if they fit snugly around your face.
