Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Study: Mask-Wearing is Harmful, Lowering Blood Oxygen Levels and Increasing Blood CO2, as Well as Increasing Heart Rate and Blood PressureIn other words, masks make it more difficult to breathe. Shocking discovery, I know.SpO2 is blood oxygen level. Actually it apparently means "saturation of peripheral oxygen," which I take to mean that it's not a direct measure of oxygen in your blood, but a proxy measure for that, as people usually get their Pulse Oximetry taken via that thing that clips on to your index finger and reads your oxygen level through your skin. I'm guessing it's the skin that is the "peripheral" being analyzed for oxygen. ...and minute ventilation (SMD = −0.72, 95% CI = −0.99 to −0.46, p < 0.001), simultaneous increased in blood-CO2 (SMD = +0.64, 95% CI = 0.31--0.96, p < 0.001), heart rate (N95: SMD = +0.22, 95% CI = 0.03--0.41, p = 0.02), systolic blood pressure (surgical: SMD = +0.21, 95% CI = 0.03--0.39, p = 0.02), skin temperature (overall SMD = +0.80 95% CI = 0.23--1.38, p = 0.006) and humidity (SMD +2.24, 95% CI = 1.32--3.17, p < 0.001).Here are some bad effects: Effects on exertion (overall SMD = +0.9, surgical = +0.63, N95 = +1.19), discomfort (SMD = +1.16), dyspnoea (SMD = +1.46), heat (SMD = +0.70), and humidity (SMD = +0.9) were significant in n = 373 with a robust relationship to mask wearing (p < 0.006 to p < 0.001). Pooled symptom prevalence (n = 8,12Here's what all that means: Oh my: So far, several mask related symptoms may have been misinterpreted as long COVID-19 symptoms. In any case, the possible MIES contrasts with the WHO definition of health.The conclusion? The downside of masks, combined with the complete lack of benefit for wearing them, means they shouldn't be worn, and certainly not mandated by government. Meanwhile, another study demonstrates that masks failed to control covid spread even in the venue where proper mask wearing and compliance would be at its highest: even in hospitals, masking failed. "Experts" are only expert in refusing to admit error, ever, even in the face of overwhelming evidence.

Yeah here's the tell: when you wear a mask you feel stifled, as if you cannot breathe clearly. This is your body telling you "I cannot breath clearly." If it was just one or two people out of a hundred, you could chalk it down to anxiety, but nearly everyone says that this was happening, and the ones that claimed otherwise were lying.

As if they hadn't already torched their basic scientific and medical credibility with most of their C19 response, public health and medical institutions (many of them, covering the bulk of the populace) continued/continue to engage in the mask idiocy long after the gas had gone out of the "pandemic" panic. As in up to a few months ago. Some *STILL* do.
It's kind of interesting that so many institutions lit themselves on fire over such a short period (law enforcement, intel, public health, the judiciary). All of course were naturally flawed and had priors, but this was really comprehensive, and histrionic. Posted by: rhomboid at April 13, 2023 02:10 PM (OTzUX) 61

Farce mask: it’s safe for only 20 minutes
Sydney Morning Herald; April 27, 2003; 10.00am Retailers who cash in on community fears about SARS by exaggerating the health benefits of surgical masks could face fines of up to $110,000. NSW Fair Trading Minister Reba Meagher yesterday warned that distributors and traders could be prosecuted if it was suggested the masks offered unrealistic levels of protection from the disease. “I’m sure everyone would agree that it is un-Australian to profiteer from people’s fears and anxieties,” Ms Meagher said. “There appears to be some debate about whether surgical masks are able to minimise the effects of SARS.” Ms Meagher said her department would investigate any complaints about false mask claims which concerned the public. “Penalties can range from fines of up to $22,000 for an individual or $110,000 for a corporation,” she said.

Health authorities have warned that surgical masks may not be an effective protection against the virus.
“Those masks are only effective so long as they are dry,” said Professor Yvonne Cossart of the Department of Infectious Diseases at the University of Sydney. “As soon as they become saturated with the moisture in your breath they stop doing their job and pass on the droplets.” Professor Cossart said that could take as little as 15 or 20 minutes, after which the mask would need to be changed. But those warnings haven’t stopped people snapping up the masks, with retailers reporting they are having trouble keeping up with demand.

These are not the same thing. Go for a run and only breathe through your nose. You will be restricted to how fast you run, and your body has no way to adapt because the volume of air entering your lungs is lower. High altitude adjustment has to do with making the most of the oxygen that is available in the same volume of air. Posted by: unknown at April 13, 2023 02:12 PM (wKi1F) 77

People at higher elevations experience the same effect - get this - EVERY FUCKING DAY.
While I agree that the tyranny and abuse of power is a greater problem, you can adapt to high altitude pretty quickly. Altitude sickness usually is a problem for a day or so and your body adjusts. Masks are a physical restriction of oxygen that your body cannot fix. == you are both almost correct. Ha. The difference in oxygen sat at say a mile high, isn't that great and most people don't spend their lives at Breckenridge but some do and you can compensate, but its still not that bad. The problem with the mask is you wind up rebreathing a bit of your own carbon dioxide that you just exhaled. So you are not getting as much Ox per breath and your carbon dioxide goes up. Even at altitude you can still blow off CO2 without a mask. So you are both only sorta right. Stop being so adamant about things you don't know.

Concerned about this, some Sunshine State parents sent five children’s masks and one from an adult to a lab at the University of Florida. These parents were worried “about potential contaminants on the mask, which is why they contacted the University of Florida’s Mass Spectrometry Research and Education Center for analysis,” reports commentator Andrea Widburg. The results weren’t pretty. According to the outlet reporting on the story, Rational Ground, the masks harbored 11 dangerous pathogens. The site lists them: Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumonia) Mycobacterium tuberculosis (tuberculosis) Neisseria meningitidis (meningitis, sepsis) Acanthamoeba polyphaga (keratitis and granulomatous amebic encephalitis) Acinetobacter baumanni (pneumonia, blood stream infections, meningitis, UTIs—resistant to antibiotics) Escherichia coli (food poisoning) Borrelia burgdorferi (causes Lyme disease) Corynebacterium diphtheriae (diphtheria) Legionella pneumophila (Legionnaires’ disease) Staphylococcus pyogenes serotype M3 (severe infections—high morbidity rates) Staphylococcus aureus (meningitis, sepsis) Posted by: rhennigantx at April 13, 2023 02:17 PM (BRHaw) 128

"But what about all the people in Asian countries who have been wearing masks for years?"
Well a lot of the data and studies included in those 70 years of research I referred to above (subject of CDC-funded meta-study) were based in Asia, where the large-scale routine use of masks provided a perfect place to do research. I didn't bother to look at the meta-study that ace touted a while back, which inevitably was based on much of the same past research as the CDC one (with the addition of the Danish RCT done summer 2020). But all this is really peanuts compared to the massive looting and destruction of freedom and ruinous opportunity costs imposed by the acceptance of the big scientific fraud of our era (largest ever, according to Dyson) - "anthropogenic climate change".

Our institutions are alive and well, but infiltrated and overtaken. Unseriousness and collapse can be somewhat ameliorated over time. Brainwashed and infiltrated cannot without breaking the spell.

Posted by: Bertram Cabot, Jr. at April 13, 2023 02:06 PM (63Dwl) Beijing, didn't need mask - most weren't wearing one. Jinan, needed a mask & hazmat suit. Most wearing (the masks) - very few were N-95 or better. A lot of neck gators and/or style masks vs functional. None wearing indoors. All pre Covid. Dunno what any of that means with respect to this study.

Professor Cossart needs to do some homework. "Properly worn" higher-end masks are known not to be effective against transmission of respiratory viruses. Very weak evidence from underpowered study claimed the opposite. Well.
And don't tell her about how surgical masks in the OR don't protect patients (or, IIRC, staff), either, from bacteria.

Do as your mom says, cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing
Amazing, Paul said something reasonable and true. By accident. Because he thinks it means "wear a mask all the time" and has the brain of a sheep. But common sense, reasonable solutions were the way to deal with this stuff. Cover your gob when you sneeze and cough. Stay away from people when you are sick. Wash your hands. Its just basic things your grandma told you to do and we all know. I am glad this happened in one sense: it got stores to actually consider cleaning stuff up like grocery carts.

Back in 2021 I was on Facebook and got into an argument with friends from out of town . I pointed out that viruses could get through any mask as they were smaller than any weave. I also argued that masks screw up breathing with heavy exertion because I used to wear one while sandblasting and working rebuilding the inside of barges. When I took a mask off I'd be gasping for air. My friends jumped all over me , most are middle class progs, and a Dr friend of one said I was completely wrong.

Quite. It's almost like a religious practice, a primitively superstitious belief in talismanic magic.
And I can understand that. Were wired that way. When I finally caught COVID Im almost certain that it was from being stuck in a plane, on the ground (Im pretty sure that their much-vaunted ventilation only works in the air) for seven hours (it was supposed to be a 90-minute flight). It threw off my plans for two and a half weeks, and eventually resulted in my driving into a ditch. (Id pushed back some travel and ended up driving in a snowstorm that I should not have been driving in.) I know that masks are probably pointless. I know that even where masks make sense, wearing the same mask for seven hours would not have helped one bit. But its still tempting on an instinctual level to think there was one simple trick that would have kept me from catching COVID and could do so in the future.

Discussion: Masks interfered with O2-uptake and CO2-release and compromised respiratory compensation. Though evaluated wearing durations are shorter than daily/prolonged use, outcomes independently validate mask-induced exhaustion-syndrome (MIES) and down-stream physio-metabolic disfunctions. MIES can have long-term clinical consequences, especially for vulnerable groups.

My personal data shows that masks dramatically increase the likelihood of becoming sick. I witnessed this phenomenon in myself and my husband. The last time we were sick was after a visit to a masks-required healthcare facility.
Posted by: Emmie at April 13, 2023 02:35 PM (Emce2) 266
Conclusion: Face mask side-effects must be assessed (risk-benefit) against the available evidence of their effectiveness against viral transmissions. In the absence of strong empirical evidence of effectiveness, mask wearing should not be mandated let alone enforced by law.

When I finally caught COVID I’m almost certain that it was from being stuck in a plane, on the ground (I’m pretty sure that their much-vaunted ventilation only works in the air) for seven hours (it was supposed to be a 90-minute flight).
I catch something every single time I fly in an airplane. It sucks. I try to avoid it if at all possible. SOME Red states [with big leftist controlled cities] had per Capita death rates up to 3x higher than some blue states. Which is to say, it means nothing.

Researchers found removing the mask policy in phase two did not produce a 'statistically significant change' in the hospital acquired Covid infection rate. Equally, they 'did not observe a delayed effect' in the Covid infection rate once the policy was removed, the study added.
++++ Not to beat a dead horse, but this was obvious to casual observers early on. No, it wasn't scientifically rigorous, but it was easy to do and many people - including me - did it. 1. Find the effective date of a mask mandate in a jurisdiction 2. Get the infection data for that jurisdiction (back when they published it) 3. Look at the 2-4 weeks bracketing the mask mandate. When you do step three, you'll find a modest increase in infection or a modest decrease in infection. No big moves. If you do this in enough jurisdictions, you'll find noise. No trend, or possibly modestly negative trend (worse infection rate). This isn't rigorous, but it's close enough - any big trend should appear, especially because at the beginning compliance was quite high. You can do the same thing with lockdowns and get the same result. This crap never worked, and it was obvious almost immediately.

Part of the problem is that plans like that carry a certain logic, and the logic carries more weight than a lot of logistics. They said he betrayed his country for money, the Russians thought so.

If someone is 95 in a nursing home, there's like a 99% chance they will die in the next 12 months regardless of any pandemic. So then they "died of Covid". The stupid cheese cloth masks though were the ultimate in virtue signaling silliness. Posted by: Blago at April 13, 2023 02:45 PM (cOFom) 344

probably closer to 75%. Other nations like Britain have gone through their death stats and removed the "died with" and "had an overdose but tested positive" type of results. Enormous drop off.

Joe Mannix, using sort of that "methodology" (sometimes more actually rigorous) along with long-known scientific factoids and patterns, several independent observers did exactly what you describe, from the outset.
Their stuff could be read on the twatters (the censorship/suppression there on this sort of thing was never all that vigorous as far as I could tell, up til the point (fall '20) when I gave up on it and stopped looking. One guy focused on the mask thing (ianmsc, or something, on Twitter), has done a book out of it. Others (data scientists with medical focus or at least public health orientation, mostly) did macro stuff that was pretty compelling. One of my favorites was using the brand-new data item of "social mobility", as quantitatively measurable by mobile phone use & movement, to assess "mitigation" policies, especially lockdowns. You can imagine what was shown (no correlation between anything, and infection rates, of course). Meanwhile, destruction and misery were imposed with zero actual scientific rationale.

I suspect the people pushing the clot shot narrative didn't really believe the shot did much positive - from the get go you could see it wasn't "stopping the spread" but didn't realize just how dangerous they were.
So they ended up poisoning their truest believers - but not the inner party members themselves who did NOT get the same shot. Posted by: 18-1 at April 13, 2023 02:56 PM (lc5cP) 423

Years ago we had a forest tent caterpillar out break. I hated the slimy little bastards and soaked them with as much malathion as possible. I suppose I should have masked up for that task.
California used that stuff to try and eradicate the Mediterranean Fruit Fly in the late 70's. They had some official type guy drink a cup of what was claimed to be malathion to show how "safe" it was. Posted by: Blanco Basura - Z28.310 at April 13, 2023 02:57 PM (Bd6X8) 428

Tough call.
Posted by: garrett at April 13, 2023 02:53 PM (SIRiz) Agreed as well. The bigwigs upstream should (well, theoretically) have an ethical, needs-based reason for getting people killed in a cause that serves the national interest of those getting killed. If this person was acting in the interest of not getting people killed, he should have gathered it up and dumped in Tucker Carlson's lap, or even the NYT. Instead...it was some creepy little game.

Regarding masks, anyone with half a brain should realize that long-term use couldn't be healthy.
Also, given that they do nothing to filter the virus itself, it's only real use would be to keep droplets from scattering - but if you wear your mask all the time, any droplets it catches is just going to saturate the mask you're breathing through. What makes the most sense to me is: if you're shedding germs and you have to go out in public, wear a mask to prevent your droplets from getting out to other people and keep rotating fresh masks as needed. Healthy people should be maskless. Posted by: can of spam at April 13, 2023 03:04 PM (7oNMO) 459
