"Study:" Even Though Masks Inflicted Permanent, Irrecoverable Developmental Delay On Children, Masking Them For Two Years Is Akshually Good Because... Masks Reduce Racism Or Something

I mean, if you can't see one third of someone's face, you can't tell what race he is.

I mean, obviously. That's why clerks robbed by criminals in ski masks can never describe the robbers' races.

Karol Markowicz:

Is there anything masking can't do? Except for control COVID spread, of course.

A new study in the New England Journal of Medicine purports to show that mask policies in schools work to contain COVID. But that's not all: The authors conclude, "We believe that universal masking may be especially useful for mitigating effects of structural racism in schools, including potential deepening of educational inequities."

Sure, masks help fix structural racism. Why not? And the next study will show masking fights climate change.

No, what this study shows is that much of the medical establishment continues to be intensely woke -- and deeply dishonest because of it. Just as the "experts" told us gathering in crowds wasn't OK in spring of 2020, but just weeks later protesting for Black Lives Matter somehow was.

This dishonesty is going to hurt us all for a long time.

As for this study specifically: It does not prove what the authors intended to. It's just the latest in a push by agenda-driven scientists, and the media who love them, to get people back in masks.
...

Again, the problem isn't just with masking. It's that the medical establishment has gone fully woke. Wokeness goes hand-in-hand with forced conformity.

No one is allowed to step out of the woke lines -- though those lines are free to shift at any time. It's very Soviet.

Under those rules, you can't be critical of even this cockamamie study; you're supposed to see that someone squiggled some lines on a graph and pretends it "proves" something it clearly doesn't because you need to support your "side."

Inside the woke echo chamber, you even have to embrace insane ideas like "masking fights racism."

No one at the Times could write an article about how a study like this is gibberish. Medical professionals and journalists who point out the obvious, that the study makes no sense, will be quickly excommunicated.

It's sick, and it has to stop. This isn't science, it's politics -- and this woke cancer has to be fought until it's defeated.

Meanwhile, children are experiencing an epidemic in non-covid respiratory infections, because they've been locked down for two years and have not developed the basic natural immunities they were supposed to have developed by now.


The measures that helped keep us safe from Covid-19 over the past 2½ years -- lockdowns, physical distancing, wearing masks, washing hands -- also helped limit the spread of other viruses. As people return to school and work and take off their masks, those viruses, including respiratory syncytial virus and flu, are back in full force.

Most of those did not "keep us safe from covid," but do go on.


That "immunity gap" from the last few years is probably behind the "unprecedented" early surge in RSV infections this year, scientists say -- and it has thrown other seasonal respiratory viruses out of whack around the world.

...

Cases of RSV in the United States started showing up in the spring and are now 60% higher than 2021's peak week, a CNN analysis shows, and that's probably an undercount.

Across the US, the number of flu cases has also been increasing a little earlier than usual. A handful of schools have seen large absences, and medical offices say they are seeing more people sick with other respiratory viruses at times that don't fit the usual patterns.

There have been similar unusual patterns in respiratory infections such as adenovirus, parainfluenza and rhinovirus in other countries, too.

Scientists think unparalleled actions of the pandemic had unparalleled effects.

Really? You mean if you subject a country's population to an unprecedented experiment for two years there might be deleterious effects? Effects you didn't plan for, because, again, this was an unprecedented experiment?

Wow, you Science-Believers (TM) sure don't know much about actual science, do you?

Ah, I mean, who cares? None of this was done to stop covid. It was all done as a competitive bidding game to show Who Has the Most Virtue and to create a demand for covid stringency that Trump could simply never meet, even if he'd wanted to, so that the 400,000 covid deaths could be blamed on him. (And the 700,000 deaths that occurred under Biden could also be blamed on Trump, for... some reason.)

9 ace actually not "Most of those", but ALL of those - policies to mitigate C19.

Unless some actual science has turned up changing that assessment. As of when I gave up on it all, nothing - unsurprisingly - showed any measurable benefit from ANY of the policies.

Just a century of observation and actual science would, and did, indicate would happen.

13 Plausibly, forcing beautiful people to fully mask will reduce discrimination against ugly people. Young people should have medically-induced aches and pains, giving them no advantage over the old. It goes without saying that the brilliant should by some means be prevented from thinking clearly, maybe by having loud music blast in their ears at random moments.

You could tell that it was complete and utter unscientific bull when Our Science Betters told us "wear a mask" but gave no specifications on materials.

Also I'm betting any aerosol reduction is almost identical to adults covering their mouths when they sneeze. And it's negated entirely by the filthiness of the aerosols being trapped and touched and spread even more by the wearer.

It's okay to accept that they were pointless and damaging.

50 On Monday, prosecutors wrote to let Judge Paul Oetken know criminal charges against Giuliani will not be coming.

“The Government writes to notify the Court that the grand jury investigation that led to the
issuance of the above-referenced warrants has concluded, and that based on information currently available to the Government, criminal charges are not forthcoming,” they wrote.

Federal prosecutors from the Southern District of New York had been investigating Giuliani’s relationship with a former top prosecutor from Ukriane, Yuriy Lutsenko, a source told The Post soon after his Manhattan apartment was raided.

117 If you bring out natural immunity, they say they don't have enough long term data to "prove it" (though the memory cell response, if acting like every other memory cell response to infection points to several years, at least). While at the same time they shrug at lack of long term data of mRNA gene therapy that will make your body produce and deal with spike proteins in an entirely unprecedented way.

And then they talk about "super immunity" --which by the same logic would mean handing out antibiotics for every scratched finger, so you would have "super anti infectiveness."

It's all retreats into the unfalsifiable and inconsistent applications of burdens of proof. Most doctors are illogical as hell.

135 Carts at our grocery store had automatic brakes installed on all the carts, which prevented them from being pushed 'the wrong way' during the stupidest part of the pandemic: 'the one-way aisle prophylaxis.' They were deactivated after a couple of months, but now they are sometimes malfunctioning, so your cart stops for no reason, and you have to switch carts. Too expensive to remove the damn things I suppose. Or maybe they are anticipating having to reactivate the system some day.

However, the chief said, the person who notified student affairs said he did not see a gun and no one reported that Jones had a firearm.

Longo said Jones' name came up as part of a hazing claim, and that he had been charged with a concealed-weapon violation that Jones did not report to the University.

I've kept a cloth mask in my back pocket for two and a half years now. Seriously, two and a half years. I can never be sure what places I'll need to use it at. Every shipper and receiver I've been to *still* has signs up about masks. Is it required? Who knows! But I have to keep it handy.

The last time I used it was when I was home Thursday and Friday and visiting my mother in the hospital. Hospitals will probably never get rid of the mask requirements.

One day very soon I am going to literally wipe my ass with this thing. I'll use it in a port-a-shitter somewhere. Don't want to clog any pipes at the truck stop!

The Safeway stores in my area installed these sort of auto Denver Boots that would deploy and keep you from pushing the cart as soon as you cross a yellow line in the parking lot. Those stupid carts cost around $500+ each, and with hundreds of homeless taking them I'd think it would have saved the stores a small fortune. I did stop seeing Safeway carts around neighborhoods and started seeing red Target carts instead. Gotta love CA.

In a way, they make sense. At least here in Mexifornia. Because most of our third world imports have never heard about things like, not sneezing or coughing on people. Even loooong before Covid, I remember standing in line at Costco (more than once), and having somebody sneeze/spray all over the back of my neck or arm. They just don't know. One reason I stopped going to places with open condiments/salad bars, or bulk grocery items.

208 Or...wearing masks reduced education disparities because the harm done to high achieving students was greater than the harm done to students already low achieving regardless of race. Now EVERYONE is behind. (Same way that everyone becoming poorer would reduce wealth inequality.)

The harm done to previously high achieving students of color need not be mentioned because our new woke collective doesn't "see" those individual students who had their futures kicked in the face but only sees the relationships of whole demographics to each other.

231 A confession.

Early on in the plandemic nightmare, when we all were required to wear the mask at work I was sitting in a bathroom stall taking care of business but I took my mask off and placed it on my knee because I hated wearing the thing. Later, when I was all done I went to get a drink out of the fountain and saw it was closed and covered with warning tape, oh yeah covid I thought... Covid? Oh crap where's my mask?

I ran back in the bathroom and it wasn't there, not in the stall. Wait could it ...? I stuck my hand in my pants and there it was slapped against my junk, it must had fallen off my knee into my underwear. I whipped it out and slapped it on my face in fear someone would catch me unmasked

What a stupid time to be alive.

Medicine has been totally politicized. In early 2020, I went to the chief of my department at a childrens hospital with printed copies of over 20 peer reviewed medical articles stating that masks were useless at preventing the spread of respiratory viruses. I was literally begging her to stand up for accurate scientific information for oir patients. Her response...

"Don't bother giving those to me. I won't read them. The decision has already been made by the hospital..."

There are physicians out there who know the CDC, FDA and Big Pharma are lying about all the Wuhan coronavirus stuff. We are trying to get accurate info out to our patients. But we are threatened with loss of our jobs, loss of our medical licenses, and loss of our board certifications. Look what the authorities have done to McCullogh.

It doesn't matter who, it doesn't matter how suave or centrist or cosmopolitan or smart or dumb or pious or lewd someone is, the result WILL BE "look what you made me do."

307 I finally got the scoop on what happened with the Maricopa ballot drop last night. The ballots came from Gilbert and Mesa.

Lake has been winning election day vote from those areas and the rest of Maricopa with Independents 2.5 or 3:1. But these votes were Independents that dropped off mail-in votes on Election Day, and Lake lost them 60-40. Every objective data analyst is looking at the drop and saying this makes no sense.

Now all of the campaign lawyers say that there has been no tampering with the ballots, however speaking for myself, I seriously doubt the lawyers were watching when they entered the system in the first place.

Workable theory is that this is a batch of fraudulent/harvested mail-ins dropped on Election Day during the madness when the machines weren't working. Maricopa has been purposely holding these back and waiting to the end to put them into the count, strategically. Do it before the last drop, because everyone will focus on the final drop, not the penultimate drop.

Also clear ballot harvesting going in in downtown Phoenix and other areas. Hobbs is outperforming Biden in those areas.

323 I like Kari a lot, but she's running against a person who is in charge of AZ elections.
I can't even wrap my head around that. How is that allowed?

I've been listening to her team (and her) since Tuesday evening saying they have this in the bag.

If they don't have this in the bag, I start questioning her and the guys who kept saying they weren't at all concerned. Either they're a bunch of charlie browns or they're in on it.

>>Also clear ballot harvesting going in in downtown Phoenix and other areas. Hobbs is outperforming Biden in those areas.

Again, as has been said ad nauseum, the Democrats, whenever and where ever they obtain power institute voting systems that are opaque, unaccountable, unaudtiable, unverifiable and simply schemes generate a universe of ballots that they leverage to acquire and maintain power.

It has to be assumed that wherever they have a registration advantage they will win the ballot race and ultimately the race.

Can there be outliers? Sure, but not enough make a difference.

Dave in Fla on the podcast also seemed to think it was hers.

Thanks, Dave. Cheating bastards. I blame the AZ GOP for being a bunch of lily liveried sops. They could have prevented this IF they wanted.

331 "Also clear ballot harvesting going in in downtown Phoenix and other areas."

Is harvesting illegal in AZ?

332 Yeah... this kind of garbage "science" is why my trust in the medical establishment is now lower than Congressional approval ratings. Well, that and the fact that the large majority of medicos showed themselves to be lock-step drones...

333 Also, FUCK Ben Shapiro. This loser dipshit thinks Joe Biden is a good father.

What the actual fuck.

I'm getting a sinking feeling, like 2020 and "release the Kraken" energy.

336 @Real_KthrynBrwn 4h
@charliekirk11 just covered on his show.. 2 out of 9 people from his team that voted in person in Arizona on Election Day have indicated that their vote shows that it has NOT BEEN COUNTED. They are lying to us. Something is going on in Arizona.

337 The Wifey and I went out to breakfast a couple weeks ago. Outside were posted signs that masks were not allowed to be worn inside. I thought that was pretty awesome until I realized they meant Halloween masks, and those signs were put up with no sense of irony.

LOL, it couldn't be any clearer that it isn't in the bag and she's going to lose.

Also, remember Lake's BIG NEWS COMING!! tweet on Friday?

That turned out just like the red wave did.
