CNN’s Dr. Reiner: Cloth Masks Are Not Effective Against COVID — They Are ‘Fashion’
Breitbart ^ | 02/16/2022 | Pam Key

Posted on 02/17/2022 7:10:37 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

CNN medical analyst Dr. Jonathan Reiner said Wednesday on “The Lead” that cloth masks were “fashion” and do not protect against COVID-19.

Anchor Jake Tapper said, “One of the issues I hear a lot from viewers is the CDC doesn’t seem to distinguish — although they acknowledge on their website that there is a difference — they don’t seem to distinguish the real difference between a cloth mask that your Aunt Sadie made you with Eagles logos on it or whatever and an N95 mask. But there is a big difference. The CDC acknowledges it on the website, but when it comes to mask requirements or mandates, they don’t. I think a lot of people are confused by that because they think if the cloth mask doesn’t really do that much, why are they mandating it?”

N95 masks are not effective as PPE unless they are fit tested.

I wear a cloth mask with a pocket for a filter. It serves me well.

Well then, it’s because they want us to wear a mask, period. It’s a humiliation, and they prefer to humiliate us.

*************
It’s high school science. The closer they fit, the harder it will be to breathe, unless unless the filtration surface grows to the point where the mask will be huge. Not to mention the difficulty talking.

The masks are pure virtue signaling.

We have those as well. haven’t had to wear them much but comes in handy. Needed to go into the Apple store in Reno, NV. Our governor had already gotten rid of the mask mandate but Apple is still requiring masks! I walked out.

I wear a mask so I don’t have to shave.

Wrong, in terms of a viral pathogen.

Evidence: N95s are NOT standard equipment in BSL4 laboratories.

“Fashion”

Wow, CNN occasionally stumbles onto some actual science. But that's only occasionally.

It's all about teaching COMPLIANCE….
...not “following the science”:

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!

N95s are no more effective than cloth. They ALL are virtue-signaling headgear, signaling that you are good government stooge. Neither is effective in filtering out viruses. It’s like expecting your screen door to filter out smoke. Complete idiocy.
