TEXT ON SCREEN: LISTEN to the children of Minnesota... Part One

1st grade - 7 years old

CHILD'S VOICE: Masks make me sad because I can't see my friend's faces.

TEXT ON SCREEN: 2nd grade - 8 years old

CHILD'S VOICE: The masks make me feel sick because they bother me quite a lot.

TEXT ON SCREEN: 4th grade - 10 years old

CHILD'S VOICE: I am in fourth grade. When I went to public school I wore a mask the mask gave me a really bad headaches. Sometimes I would come home crying because they were so bad. But I switched to distance learning and now I'm failing it. And it's also really hard to interact with some of the kids on there and it's hard to make friends on the Google meets.

TEXT ON SCREEN: According to WHO and UNICEF, one of the deciding factors on whether or not children should wear a mask is:

The potential impact of wearing a mask on learning and psychosocial development, in consultation with teachers, parents/caregivers and/or medical providers

TEXT ON SCREEN: 1st grade - 7 years old

CHILD'S VOICE: Masks, masks make my head hurt and sometimes it's hard to breathe with them on and it's hard to do my homework when I have them on in school.

TEXT ON SCREEN: Kindergarten - 6 years old

CHILD'S VOICE: I don't like masks because it doesn't make me feel good because it makes me happy or anything and because I can't see other people's faces and I, it's really hard to breathe in, and I can't see my teachers' faces and my friends.

TEXT ON SCREEN: Listen to these children.
Does it seem like their learning and psychosocial development are being negatively impacted die to masks?

TEXT ON SCREEN: The answer is YES.
Children are suffering because of masks, face shields, AND "distancing" measures.

TEXT ON SCREEN: 11th grade - 17 years old

GIRL'S VOICE: When the mask mandate was first initiated I decided to stay home so I didn't have to wear a mask so I didn't go to school. I did homeschooling. And the homeschooling [inaudible] was not good, so my GPA dropped a lot and really affected my mental health. So I went back to school when schools opened up full-time. Bbut the masks caused me to break out in hives, causing me high anxiety, it was hard to breathe and made it so I wasn't able to focus on school and my grades still didn't improve that much because of that.

TEXT ON SCREEN: Emergency rooms have seen a 24 percent increase in mental health-related visits from children ages 5 to 11 compared to last year. The increase among older kids is even higher— 31 percent.

TEXT ON SCREEN: 3rd grade - 9 years old

YOUNG BOY'S VOICE: When I wear a mask it makes me feel uncomfortable, scared, and I don't like to see my friends in masks because I want to see their faces instead of their faces with a mask. And also in PE I get really sweaty because of masks and that's just why I don't like them.

TEXT ON SCREEN: 2nd grade - 8 years old

YOUNG GIRL'S VOICE: I don't like the masks because they make me sicker and I get hot and that gives me headaches. I also get dizzy and sometimes I feel like I'm going to faint. And I don't get to see my friends' faces.

TEXT ON SCREEN: Kindergarten - 5 years old

CHILD'S VOICE: Please don't make me wear a mask because I don't like it. A lot of things, when you, when I when I wear it I cannot breathe. And I just don't want to wear it anymore because I don't like it, and I don't like it when I wear it. And I just, I don't want to do it ever again. And I just don't like it.

Bandits wear masks. Masks hide identities. They need to be banned in public again.

Crooks's high school experience coincided with the global pandemic and Rudolph noted that he was further ostracized for continuing to wear a mask long after the mandates had been lifted and student life resumed a semblance of normalcy.

Masks are visible proof of mental illness.

A new study published in the Journal Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety this week, titled “Wearing face masks as a potential source for inhalation and oral uptake of inanimate toxins – A scoping review.” Hint: It’s not too good for mask maniacs.

The study was a “scoping review” that examined the potential toxic effects of face masks on human health by rounding up other studies. Researchers analyzed twenty-four relevant studies, focusing on the content and release into people’s bodies of known toxic substances from face masks.

Especially extended mask wearing.

The scientists found evidence of concerning levels of several toxic substances in face masks, including:

Microplastics and nanoplastics

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs)

Phthalates and phthalate esters

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)

Heavy metals (lead, cadmium, cobalt, copper, antimony)

Titanium dioxide particles

Coincidentally, I’m sure, microplastics were in the headlines this week thanks to a different study by completely different researchers:




These researchers found that a half a percent of autopsied brain matter from “normal individuals” aged 45-50 were made out of plastic. That is double the amount of brain plastic from autopsies conducted in 2016. Nobody has connected the dots to masking.

Call it mask brain. In passing, the toxic mask study mentioned chronic “mask-induced exhaustion syndrome” (MIES), which looks increasingly suspicious after combining the two studies.

Anyway, the mask study concluded that, while masks can helpfully filter large particles, they may less helpfully introduce toxic substances into folks’ airways and gastrointestinal tracts:

Conclusion
Undoubtedly, mask mandates during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic have
been generating an additional source of potentially harmful exposition to
toxins with health threatening and carcinogenic properties at population
level with almost zero distance to the airways.

Even more remarkable than a negative mask study being published at all, the researchers didn’t even have to say the magic words! Just the opposite: “On top of that,” the researchers noted, “there was and still is no empirical evidence for the effectiveness of the masks in limiting the spread of viruses in the general populace.”
