Face masks don't restrict oxygen or contribute to carbon dioxide buildup: study
Fox News ^ | October 2, 2020 | Jeanette Settembre

Breathe easy. A new study suggests that surgical face masks don’t cause a buildup of carbon dioxide or restrict oxygen, despite opposing claims. The study, on the “Effect of Face Masks on Gas Exchange in Healthy Persons and Patients with COPD,” which was published in the Annals of the American Thoracic Society on Friday, was conducted after a group of Florida residents challenged Florida’s mask-wearing mandate in June, arguing that wearing the protective face coverings could result in the buildup of too much carbon dioxide.

Stick to what your betters are saying, AppyPappy! Today, they are telling you masks do NOT restrict oxygen and that said oxygen exiting or entering the mask is impervious to C-19 aerosol contamination. Tomorrow, if they tell you otherwise believe them! They’ve got this.—FRearpers, Inc.

Dr. Russell Blaylock? The conspiracy nut who rants about chemtrails, aspartame, and GMOs?

You know he sells his own line of “Brain Repair Formula”?

Definitely not my first choice for good information.

You have no idea what being discussed, sorry. Try reading - the question here is about the claim that wearing a mask is supposed to kill a person.

Now, if you can understand that and come up with the time frame that the killer masks work with, that would be something worth offering up.

e.g. “from the time a person puts on a mask to when you drop dead is 4 hours, 32 minutes,14 seconds”.

Good luck.

BS.

IF these masks don’t restrict oxygen, and don’t contribute to the build up of carbon dioxide, then someone needs to explain why I get a raging migraine after wearing one of these effing masks for 10 or more minutes.

And our senile governor meemaw ivey just extended the damn mask mandate for another month.

Yeah I’ve been through this before. I’ve been wearing a mask since March. I know it restricts airflow because I’ve been wearing one.

College students are major mask Karens. They bust an artery when they see someone not wearing the virtue signal. Our students were complaining because it was too easy to breathe with the mask so they thought it didn’t work. I was trying to get one of those easy breathing masks. Why would they complain because it was easy to breathe with the mask on if the mask doesn’t inhibit breathing?

So, let’s just let me decide for me. Just before seeing this story I saw another one saying yes they restrict....so let me be the boss of me, I choose not to wear a muzzle, paper or cloth.

The subjects obviously weren’t mowing the lawn during the testing. With even a crappy mask designed to keep out (allergic) grass particles, I feel like my lungs are collapsing.

Many surgeries last for 6-8 hours.

The science is settled?

Be that as it may, it doesn’t address the question at hand - why they aren’t dying from just wearing masks.-—

but they are dying earlier... from the long term effects... like smoking...

your argument is moot... there are no benefits to point to and say this is better... just that it isn’t worse for you?

i would argue we would be at the same number of deaths if we did not mandate masks.

Medical people in hospitals wear them all day now, as do medical workers in clinics as per epidemic policies. I saw painters wearing masks for full shifts in steel work during the ‘70s and in other shops during the ‘90s. In the late-’80s and most of the ‘90s, I ran up hills at MOPP 4, full combat gear, when it was over 100 degrees outside on several occasions in training.

There are employees wearing four to five masks per shift in some stores, with some of them bringing more masks for longer shifts. I know a woman who went through seven of them in a store during a 15-hour shift, and those custom-made masks fit perfectly all the way around. One of the women made four of them for me. Very nicely and locally made with two layers of densely woven cotton, a thin, bendable steel form for the bridge of the nose and a pocket for a micro-particle filter if needed.

Don’t underestimate all American workers. Not all of them are as slobbish as many in the blue states of commie chaos. Many are quite disciplined. Their bosses depend on them for lower liability costs, lower absenteeism and consumer trust.

Uh!

I call bull shit.

I can’t breathe after 10-15 minutes and even quicker if I am exerting myself.

My face looks like it got sprayed by a seltzer bottle around the mouth and nose and my mask is so wet air does not exchange

idiots...

They do cause one to overheat in summer weather, however. I also imagine that when they get loaded up with pollen that people with allergies or other respiratory problems can have a pretty rough time of it.
