Thread: Mask idiocy

  1. #1

    Mask idiocy

    Hypothetically speaking, maybe possibly wearing face masks could prevent an infection with the far from deadly coronavirus.
    As these masks frustrate breathing, I have always assumed that the “cure” is worse than the disease. Especially since these masks are used by amateurs, who touch them with their filthy hands and even reuse them.
    I guess that nobody is concerned with the environmental consequences of these masks...

    I would expect that medical professionals operating in hospitals know how to use those masks, so that possibly in that situation it could actually work (at least better than when amateurs fool around with these masks)...
    The problem with such a hypothesis is that there is no evidence whatsoever to support it. Some studies even suggest that wearing masks have negative effects on infections (even in the operating room of hospitals).

    In 1981, Neil Orr’s study concluded:
    It Would Appear That Minimum Contamination Can Best Be Achieved By Not Wearing A Mask At All.

    And That Wearing a Mask during Surgery ‘Is a Standard Procedure That Could Be Abandoned.
    In 1991, Tunevall concluded:
    Of 1537 surgical procedures performed with masks, the surgical wound infection rate was 4.7% (3.7 to 5.8%, 95% confidence limit). Of 1551 surgical procedures performed without masks, the surgical wound infection rate was 3.5% (2.6 to 4.5%).
    In 2001, Skinner and Sutton concluded:
    There is little evidence to suggest that the wearing of surgical face masks by staff in the operating theatre decreases postoperative wound infections. Published evidence indicates that postoperative wound infection rates are not significantly different in unmasked versus masked theatre staff. However, there is evidence indicating a significant reduction in postoperative wound infection rates when theatre staff are unmasked.
    Schools in China now prohibit students from wearing masks during gym class, after at least 3 kids died during gym classes while wearing a mask.

    Bacterial pneumonia infections will skyrocket this winter and will be tallied as the not so deadly virus. I don’t care about the arguments for or against. I simply will not comply.

    My body, my rules bitches. I am grateful for the opportunity to so easily and visually show my noncompliance with their games. I gain energy from the disdain of brain dead statist pussies. It tames the ego and cleanses the soul.

    If you are insinuating that face masks could cause to bacterial pneumonia, be careful who you say it to.
    You might get labelled a mad tinfoil hatter, by one of these facemask clowns…

    If wearing a mask could cause bacterial pneumonia – is enforcing masks on the sheeple an act of genocide?!?

    In 2008, none other than Anthony Fauci co-authored a paper on the Spanish Flu Epidemic that shows that most of the victims of the “Spanish Flu” in reality died from (secondary) bacterial pneumonia.
    The postmortem samples we examined from people who died of influenza during 1918–1919 uniformly exhibited severe changes indicative of bacterial pneumonia.
    (...)
    The majority of deaths in the 1918–1919 influenza pandemic likely resulted directly from secondary bacterial pneumonia caused by common upper respiratory–tract bacteria.
    (...)
    The viruses that caused the 1957 and 1968 pandemics were descendants of the 1918 virus in which 3 (the 1957 virus) or 2 (the 1968 virus) new avian gene segments had been acquired by reassortment [21]. Although lower pathogenicity resulted in far fewer deaths, hence fewer autopsies, most 1957–1958 deaths were attributable to secondary bacterial pneumonia, as had been the case in 1918.

    It shouldn’t be ignored that the mask madness is also in violation with our supposed “freedom of speech”, as it makes effective communication impossible.

    Starting on 1 December, over here in the Netherlands masks in most public places indoors are mandatory (fine EUR 95).
    This also effectively makes it mandatory for shopkeepers to forbid access to those horrible “criminals” that refuse a mask…

    Starting today – 1 December – masks are mandatory in the Netherlands almost everywhere inside public places… so now I’m sitting in an internet cafe with a MASK on (nose uncovered though).
    A large percentage of the customers in here don’t wear a mask…

    Earlier today I went to the supermarket, not wearing a mask. To the complaints of the cashier that I must wear a mask, I replied.
    Face masks are bad for your health, a policy implementing this, is called genocide.
    I saw several employees taking off their mask (which they have every right to).
    The whole policy is BS anyway, while I can’t go to the bars or restaurants, the schools, casinos and even the prostitutes remain open for business.

    The following “scientific” looking paper describes that “it would be a paradox” if masks prevent infection with the magical, mutated, novel coronavirus - COVID-19...

    It would be a paradox if masks and respirators worked, given what we know about viral respiratory diseases: The main transmission path is long-residence-time aerosol particles (< 2.5 μm), which are too fine to be blocked, and the minimum-infective-dose is smaller than one aerosol particle. The present paper about masks illustrates the degree to which governments, the mainstream media, and institutional propagandists can decide to operate in a science vacuum, or select only incomplete science that serves their interests. Such recklessness is also certainly the case with the current global lockdown of over 1 billion people, an unprecedented experiment in medical and political history.

    This month the World Health Organization (WHO) confirmed that there is no evidence that masks prevent infection” with COVID-19:
    At present there is only limited and inconsistent scientific evidence to support the effectiveness of masking of healthy people in the community to prevent infection with respiratory viruses, including SARS-CoV-2 (75). A large randomized community-based trial in which 4862 healthy participants were divided into a group wearing medical/surgical masks and a control group found no difference in infection with SARS-CoV-2 (76).
    A recent systematic review found nine trials (of which eight were cluster-randomized controlled trials in which clusters of people, versus individuals, were randomized) comparing medical/surgical masks versus no masks to prevent the spread of viral respiratory illness. Two trials were with healthcare workers and seven in the community. The review concluded that wearing a mask may make little or no difference to the prevention of influenza-like illness (ILI) (RR 0.99, 95%CI 0.82 to 1.18) or laboratory confirmed illness (LCI) (RR 0.91, 95%CI 0.66-1.26) (44); the certainty of the evidence was low for ILI, moderate for LCI.
    .
    The WHO also confirms adverse effects of mask wearing:
    The potential disadvantages of mask use by healthy people in the general public include:
    • headache and/or breathing difficulties, depending on type of mask used (55);
    • development of facial skin lesions, irritant dermatitis or worsening acne, when used frequently for long hours (58, 59, 127);
    • difficulty with communicating clearly, especially for persons who are deaf or have poor hearing or use lip reading (128, 129);
    • discomfort (44, 55, 59)
    • a false sense of security leading to potentially lower adherence to other critical preventive measures such as physical distancing and hand hygiene (105);
    • poor compliance with mask wearing, in particular by young children (111, 130-132);
    • waste management issues; improper mask disposal leading to increased litter in public places and environmental hazards (133);
    • disadvantages for or difficulty wearing masks, especially for children, developmentally challenged persons, those with mental illness, persons with cognitive impairment, those with asthma or chronic respiratory or breathing problems, those who have had facial trauma or recent oral maxillofacial surgery and those living in hot and humid environments (55, 130).

    On 5 June, the World Health Organization (WHO) updated its reasons for why the herd should all wear a face mask. The main reasons for why “healthy people” should, isn’t to prevent them from being infected with the coronavirus (brainwashing seems to be the most important reason):
    The likely advantages of the use of masks by healthy people in the general public include:
    • reduced potential exposure risk from infected persons before they develop symptoms;
    • reduced potential stigmatization of individuals wearing masks to prevent infecting others (source control) or of people caring for COVID-19 patients in non-clinical settings;
    making people feel they can play a role in contributing to stopping spread of the virus;
    reminding people to be compliant with other measures (e.g., hand hygiene, not touching nose and mouth).
    However, this can also have the reverse effect (see below);

    • potential social and economic benefits. Amidst the global shortage of surgical masks and PPE, encouraging the public to create their own fabric masks may promote individual enterprise and community integration. Moreover, the production of non-medical masks may offer a source of income for those able to manufacture masks within their communities. Fabric masks can also be a form of cultural expression, encouraging public acceptance of protection measures in general. The safe re-use of fabric masks will also reduce costs and waste and contribute to sustainability.

    Here's an excellent assessment of the efficacy and safety of masks, from two OSHA workplace hygienists. Thanks to Del Bigtree for having this discussion with them, which can be found here.
