Was there a factual basis for allowing a reduction of our freedom to be free from masks? Does not due process require that there be a basis for any deprivation of liberty in this country?

Is a deprivation of rights not a denial of due process when there is no factual or rational basis for that act?

Doesn’t anyone have to prove that masks are in any measure effective for the purposes intended?

I guess not. The burden used to be on the entity trying to take away a right of the people. Now, the burden is met by a mere rule without evidence of need or effectiveness.

IANAL but my guess is no. School districts do not have to prove that students wearing spaghetti strap tops or saggy pants disrupt the learning environment, so they can just treat masks as part of their dress code.
