Stanford study quietly published at NIH.gov proves face masks are absolutely worthless against Covid

Original Article

The diapers most of us are wearing on our face most of the time apparently have no effect at stopping Covid-19. This explains a lot. Did you hear about the peer-reviewed study done by Stanford University that demonstrates beyond a reasonable doubt that face masks have absolutely zero chance of preventing the spread of Covid-19? No? It was posted on the the National Center for Biological Information government website. The NCBI is a branch of the National Institute for Health, so one would think such a study would be widely reported by mainstream media and embraced by the “science-loving” folks in Big Tech.

I read part of this report last night. I've also bookmarked it. What people are doing by forcing others to wear these things is criminal.

I tell the mask Nazis about building my chain link fence for mosquito control. When they tell me how dumb that is I try to explain the analogy of the mask to a virus that has a 99% survivability rate. Typically I get the stuttering "follow the science" screed and I simply and calmly say I am. This only infuriates them further and I just smile and tell them to look it up as opposed to listening to the propaganda.

"worthless" means "of no value". The study repeatedly point out that facemasks are of greatly NEGATIVE value, both physiologically and psychologically. I would submit that masks are.sociologically damaging also. This morning, a mask nazi behind the counter at Mickey d's tried to force a very large and obstreperous customer to wear a.mask. it didn't work and nearly descended into violence.

Fauci is recommending three masks .I'm recommending that Fauci wear six or more masks to shut him up and put an end to his too many TV appearances with faulty advice.

Sorry but the article is a review with a stated hypothesis NOT a study. While I believe the hypothesis to be true, this article does not stand alone as proof of anything. The debate will continue.

But it is a Stanford study and report and we know Leland Stanford was a dirty, rotten racist back in the 19th Century so it cannot be reliable. When are the progressives going to demand "The Farm" be razed?

#7, they researched the hypothesis and came to a Conclusion. I've stated from the beginning, the numbers will likely be startling to most once they realize few overall died, and those who did, had underlying conditions and were over 70 years old. Truth should be the determining factor not some political calculation to keep people from knowing what is happening. Most people have common sense and can reason. Remember, the world recovered from the Spanish Flu which had many more deaths. The world will recover from this one too.

The masks prevent my cell and lap from logging me on with facial recognition. They make it difficult to breathe. I know they are useless. They know they are useless. But I'm not going to risk being publicly flogged by Do Gooders.

I am no face nazi, and completely support Cortes' general conclusion: face masks don't prevent spread of CV19. However, his logic is a bit fuzzy, in that virus particles typically don't travel as free-floating individual cells, but as suspended articles in airborne droplets and aerosols. Therefore, the question about the efficiency of a mask in this case is not so much one of the relative size of the virus cells themselves to the pore sizes of a mask, but rather the relative size of the airborne droplets that are transporting the virus, plus any differential static-electrical attraction of those droplets to the mask fibers. The problem is, as they say, a bit of a sticky wicket.

The Government, NIH, CDC etc. all knew that the medical masks did not prevent the Covid-19 virus from entering through the holes in the masks canvas. So why do they insist on us wearing masks? Could it be controlling the herd not getting herd immunity. It's enough to begin to not trusting the Government.

The report points out a long list of adverse physiological and psychological effects of masks, and they state in their conclusion. "The existing scientific evidences challenge the safety and efficacy of wearing facemask as preventive intervention for COVID-19. The data suggest that both medical and non-medical facemasks are ineffective to block human-to-human transmission of viral and infectious disease such SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19, supporting against the usage of facemasks." I wear a mask perhaps ten to twenty minutes a week, most days, not at all. The longest periods are perhaps 15 minutes in a store during a quick shopping trip. I have never believed them to be useful in any way, other than to minimize harassment by the Karens.

I can personally attest to the affect of even short term wear causing hypoxemia - low oxygen - and the effect it had on my heart arrhythmia. The last thing I (or anyone) needs is anything that inhibits oxygen uptake. I've had the screeners at medical facilities tell me to pull my mask up over my nose, and I somewhat politely, but very firmly tell them No, it knocks my heart out of rhythm, which was why I was at my cardiologist's office in the first place.

U.S. Attorney for Connecticut John Durham is going “full throttle” with his review into the origins of the investigation into suspected Russia-Trump coordination in the 2016 election, with additional top prosecutors involved in looking at different components of the original probe, sources told Fox News. Two sources told Fox News that Jeff Jensen, the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Missouri who was tapped by the Justice Department in February to review the case of former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, is continuing to help with Durham’s investigation even after the DOJ’s move last week to drop the case against Flynn.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-G announced an effort Sunday to expel Rep. Maxine Waters from Congress after she told protesters in Minnesota to "get more confrontational" if Derek Chauvin isn't convicted of murdering George Floyd. In a statement released by her office, Taylor Greene accused the California Congresswoman of inciting "Black Lives Matter domestic terrorists to fire gunshots at National Guardsmen in Minnesota" after she spoke in Brooklyn Center, which has become a flashpoint for protests following the fatal police shooting of Daunte Wright. "I'll be introducing a resolution to expel Rep. Maxine Waters from Congress for her continual incitement of violence," a statement from Taylor Greene's office reads.

Rioting is a frequent phenomenon, complete with a professional traveling cadre that moves into a city when a spark ignites anger – as most recently happened in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. (snip) Poor Blacks burning their own neighborhoods hurts the (nonprofessional) rioters and their families and is a burden that does not affect most people. It also doesn’t win a lot of friends among the supposedly oppressed people the itinerant professional rioters seek to lead. Now, we are seeing signs that the urge to riot will be directed from above at the affluent and comfortable, a property destruction analog of the slogan “Eat the rich”

President Joe Biden is currently exploring the idea of canceling federal student loan debt, awaiting memos on how much he can do legally.The Biden White House tasked Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona to explore the issue, effectively stalling immediate action on the issue as activists increasingly push for him cancel the debt. White House chief of staff Ron Klain said Biden has not made a decision on the issue either way, as he is waiting for the policy memos.“Hopefully we’ll see that in the next few weeks, and then he’ll look at that legal authority; he’ll look at the policy issues around that and he’ll make a decision,”

(Actually -- she did know one, but lost track of him.) She "lived in a rather special world," as she put it. Well, the New York Times still lives there, and appears to like being mired in the same Mr. Magooism.

As the trial of former Minnesota police officer Derek Chauvin wrapped up with closing arguments, the nation braced itself for a verdict: guilty or not guilty of killing George Floyd, the 46-year-old Black man who died during an arrest after Chauvin pressed his knee to Floyd's neck for 9 minutes and 29 seconds. The 12 jurors on the panel have as much time as they need to deliberate, but there is a possibility of a hung jury, which is a failure to reach at least one unanimous verdict. Chauvin is facing three charges, including second-degree murder, third-degree murder and second-degree
