masks

Here comes another perspective. Y’all ready? We have now clearly outlined how masks are NOT SUPPORTED by scientific evidence. See my previous (lengthy) mask post. Select govt officials want “community encouragement” and PEER PRESSURE to drive these unhealthy actions. Police do not want involved for very good reasons. Have we considered the safety issues?I fully believe that masks are DANGEROUS and I’ll tell you why…

1) masks do not allow you to read facial expressions

2) masks degrade situational awareness

3) masks hinder lip-reading and inhibit communication

4) masks create fear and division

These are all recipes for a very dangerous social situation. If there is a violent event, it would be VERY DIFFICULT to identify perpetrators when every person is wearing a mask. If someone is running toward you with a mask, you cannot quickly differentiate scared from angry, confused, or happy. Any person that runs at you with a mask during a high-stress event will be treated as the enemy because the human body protects itself. And, it will always protect itself by erring on the side of caution!

Now imagine a mass casualty event. How are security persons, first responders, or fellow good samaritans supposed to identify who-is-who in a sea of masks?! They CANNOT. Anyone can quickly escape with a mask on, if everyone is wearing a mask! Or: Everyone will be treated like a suspect until cleared. I cannot imagine the trauma generated from a situation like that.

This is not the world you want. You just don’t. Why are we afraid to BREATHE around each other?! We are sending the message that we cannot even exist together. We no longer communicate a simple smile in passing. Have you felt how alienating it is to smile to masked people? I constantly feel judged, shamed, hated, and uncomfortable around masked people. Yet, I smile anyways. I can’t tell if you’re smiling back in your mask and your eyes only show me fear.

We have got to start thinking about the social repercussions of distancing and masking. Humans are SOCIAL beings and these demented recommendations are just that — RECOMMENDATIONS. Not laws, nor do you want them to become laws. YOU CAN SAY NO. NO IS AN ANSWER. I behoove you to stand up and flatten the fear!

Take off the masks, smile at your neighbor, and live in the world you want to see. Support your community health, feel safe using your face, and for goodness sake DON’T PUT THAT GARBAGE ON YOUR CHILD’S FACE.

I am getting exhausted trying to explain why all of these “recommendations” from govt agencies in regards to the use of cloth masks (and otherwise) are absolute GARBAGE. Foremost, adjusting your mask after touching surfaces exposes your face to whatever was on your hands. Cloth masks create a HUMID environment that is ideal for microbial growth. Cloth masks increase airway resistance and can lower oxygen levels. I cannot find studies nor reviews that are in support of using masks in community settings. Most studies are against using cloth masks. Surgical masks aren’t very impressive either.

Basically, EVERYONE NEEDS TO GET COMFORTABLE READING BEYOND HEADLINES. Look at the references of these sweeping “guidelines” and you will see that none of this is rooted in science. Absolutely. None. Of. It.

I am embarrassed for these ‘official’ agencies. We seriously went from being particular about donning and doffing PPE to teaching people how to cut a T-shirt to put over their face.

Stop hiding under the guise of “public health.” All you health professionals should be shouting from the rooftops about how cloth, t-shirt, scarf masking is overall risky and DOES NOT prevent viral transmission.

Let’s talk about REAL health and the importance of supporting your immune system with nutrition, hydration, and healthy interaction with your environment. Get outside and breathe some fresh air!

Are we going to fear the millions of viruses, bacteria, and fungi that could potentially cause us illness for the rest of our lives, or just this single variant? YOU ONLY HAVE NOW TO LIVE. I suggest you start.
