What about the masks?

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

I have seen numerous studies published on the efficacy of face masks regarding the COVID-19 virus. There have been some pertinent facts that have emerged from these studies. It has been scientifically established that the COVID-19 virus is approximately 120 nanometers in size. To put this in perspective, a typical human hair is approximately 75,000 nanometers in diameter. The filtering ability of one of the better masks available, the N95, is about 300 nanometers. One hundred twenty (120) nanometers is less than 300 nanometers, so the virus can get through, correct? Not so fast, say epidemiologists. The virus attaches itself to substances emitting from other people. Breathing and talking generate particles (water droplets or aerosols) around 1,000 nanometers, so the N95 respirator filters with very high efficacy.

How many of us wear N95 masks? Very few. What are the guidelines for the safe wearing of N95 masks? You are only supposed to wear the mask once and throw it away. What about the much – less – effective cloth masks? The CDC states: “You shouldn’t touch your cloth mask, either to adjust it or take it off in the wrong way. Do not touch the front of your mask. f you do the mask should be washed with soap and water before you use it again.” I guess I shouldn’t be keeping one wadded-up in my pocket, as I typically do. Please answer me this: Do any of you handle your “much less effective cloth mask” without touching the front of your mask? Do you immediately wash it with soap and water, and let it completely dry before you put it back on? Neither do I.

I would venture to say that, according to CDC standards, almost 100 percent of us are not following proper hygienic procedures for wearing a mask.

Why do we continue to play this game regarding the wearing of masks? Will someone give me a legitimate reason, other than “the government says so?” In most cases, people have them stuffed in their pockets or their purses. You’re in a store and you handle an object in a store that 11 others have touched. Then you scratch your nose and let your mask hang by one ear so you can breathe. Without thinking about it, you touch your face and put your mask back on. I honestly believe masks have slowed the achievement of herd immunity.

In an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal last week, Johns Hopkins professor, Martin Makary, wrote that the recent drop in U.S. COVID-19 cases suggests that we are close to reaching herd immunity. “Most of the country is at herd immunity,” says Makary. We are more than 15 months into this and have vaccines readily available. Yet all we get from the CDC is the daily molasses-drip of bad news. What exactly is going on? Why does this government want the mask-wearing and sequestration to continue? Have you noticed who the entities are that continue this charade? The Biden Administration, Blue-State governments and Democratically-run cities.

Yesterday, while I was attempting to absorb the wisdom of the COVID Godfather, Anthony Fauci, who was a guest on “Meet the Press,” one sentence grabbed my attention. “It’s possible mask mandates could continue indefinitely in order to reduce seasonal flu infections,” exclaimed Fauci. There you go.

Why do these governments and governments around the world continue pushing these mandates? They want you to get accustomed to the control. They want to instill you with fear and pessimism. The same reason a Calgary pastor was, earlier this month, pulled-over, dragged off a major highway by a SWAT team, and arrested for “organizing an illegal in-person gathering.” Two years ago, this was casually referred to as “attending church.” How many times has hypocrite-extraordinaire, Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer, demonstrated her rule of “for thee but not for me” to her constituents? Weeks before she took a trip to Florida to visit her ailing dad, she issued a statement, warning the public about taking spring break trips to the South. Meanwhile, two of her top aides vacationed in the South, as well. They tell us to worry about the coronavirus, but they obviously are not worried.

Let’s not forget about the master of lies and tyranny, Andrew Cuomo, whose brother Chris Cuomo routinely hosted the governor on his CNN show prior to the governor’s legal troubles. Cuomo appears to be responsible for thousands of deaths in nursing homes in New York, by his executive order that mandated COVID-positive patients be sent to nursing homes. Supposedly, he is under investigation. Wish I had a dollar for every time I heard about a Democratic politician being under investigation. Rarely, in 2021, are any ever charged, much less convicted. Despicable and deplorable are the words that come to mind.

Lockdown-defiant New Jersey gym owner, Ian Smith, put it in these very strong terms: “Everything the government is doing right now is designed to make you fat, weak, stupid, depressed, lazy and reliant on crumbs they wipe off their plates. Health replaced by pharmaceuticals. Education replaced by programming. Hard work replaced by handouts. These people hate you.”

Maybe they do hate us … I’ll leave that for you to decide. I am, however, very sure of one thing: the Oligarchs running the military-industrial complex want to control you and instill fear and pessimism in you. Don’t ever forget what Hitler’s right-hand man, Hermann Goering, said at his Trial at Nuremberg in 1945, when asked: “How did you convince the German people to accept all this?” He replied, “It was easy and has nothing to do with Nazism. The only thing a government needs to turn people into slaves is fear. If you can find something to scare them, you can make them do anything you want.”
