Study on Mask Mandates Will Have the Hysterics Seething

The National Pulse is reporting on a new study out of Kansas that completely contradicts the conventional wisdom regarding mask mandates and COVID-19.

According to the study, fatalities were actually ~50 percent higher in places with mandates vs. those without mandates, and there are a few reasons to suspect why that might be.

The observational study – “The Foegen Effect: A Mechanism by Which Facemasks Contribute to the COVID-19 Case Fatality Rate” – was published in Medicine in February 2022, authored by German doctor Zacharias Fögen.

The paper analyzed “whether mandatory mask use influenced the case fatality rate in Kansas” during the time period of August 1st, 2020 to October 15th. Kansas was used for comparison because the state allowed each of its 105 counties to decide whether or not to implement mask mandates, with 81 counties deciding against the measure.

“The most important finding from this study is that contrary to the accepted thought that fewer people are dying because infection rates are reduced by masks, this was not the case,” summarized the paper.

“Results from this study strongly suggest that mask mandates actually caused about 1.5 times the number of deaths or ∼50% more deaths compared to no mask mandates.”

good “ing artic“!

One of the most tediously written sentences in a long time.

It was ALWAYS about teaching COMPLIANCE….
...NEVER about “following the science”:

Masks are:

1) a sign of submission, subversion and subjugation
2) mandated in order to dehumanize
3) virtue signaling devices
4) meant to provide constant reinforcement of fear
5) used to destroy community, friends and family normal communication
6) implemented to create isolation, confusion, anxiety, destroy human connectivity, trust and interactions
7) mandated to exacerbate illness
8) intended to aid in the abandonment of the belief and reliance on our immune systems
9) intended to refute integrous science
10) signal to positions of power that you are willing to give up all of your rights and freedoms based on anything they say, even if it is a BIG FAT LIE!

Masks were nothing more than a virtue signal to allow a very quick security camera footage visual check of what percentage of the sheeple would comply first with masks; later with jabs; still later with “vax passports”.

Fortunately things began to break down with the vax passports so we haven’t quite yet reached the implanted microchip aka mark of the Beast stage four...yet.

BBC was pushing the following yesterday. sounds like masks stop nothing!

6 June: MedicalXpress: Mouth-to-mouth resuscitation during COVID-19: Study shows using a face mask works
by The European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care (ESAIC)
New research being presented at the annual meeting of the European Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care (ESAIC) in Milan, Italy (4–6 June), shows it is practical to learn how to do mouth-to-mouth resuscitation while wearing a face mask to reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission...

Trained observers evaluated each rescue breath. More than 90% of the breaths into the mouth of each manikin were judged effective, meaning they led to the manikin’s chest rising...

I hate mask mandates even more than vaccine mandates. I’m in CA and my teens were forced into masks WAY too long and I fear they will be coming back in Fall. Alameda county (county next to mine) is the ONLY county in the 3000+ counties in the United States still mandating indoor masking. Incredible.

[Jim Noble]

This study, like many other studies of “Mask mandates”, made no effort to assess mask WEARING.

A county or state with a “mask mandate” might have less public mask wearing than, say, a Publix or Winn Dixie in the Villages.

The fact is, CDC ran zero cluster randomized control trials of the effect of mask WEARING, not mask MANDATES, on transmission - with the result that the question remains open after 30 months.

Unbelievable.

[lightman]

There is no “science” to follow.

And WHO made “science” Almighty?

I hate both.

I also hate it when I do a double post.

not the livestock!

Fauci & CDC knew this the whole time. It was intentional. That is why Fauci reversed himself on masks early on— they weren’t getting enough cases to get political control. Making everyone mask up helped their cause.

[lizma2]

That’s when Covid-19 became Davos-19.

[SaveFerris]

Look at the face of the woman 2nd from left.

Look at the face of worship, on the face of Fauci.

What it means, I dunno. But their faces are striking.

[lilypad]

Haha. Good reply!

Speaking of the UK...

Sheffield hospital bosses call for masks still to be worn despite lifting of Covid restrictions National rules on mask wearing in GP surgeries and hospitals have largely been scrapped under new guidance, but hospital bosses in Sheffield still want them to be worn.
