Despite the all too many poor unfortunate souls who fearfully continue to refuse to go maskless in public, it has consistently been demonstrated - only since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic - that masks do not work.
Despite what "experts" claimed after flip-flopping in early 2020, they actually had it right the first time: there was then and is still currently no scientific basis for universal masking. Decades of pandemic planning had confirmed that masks wouldn't work when worn by the general public. Years of research said there was no reason to wear masks during a pandemic. Even Anthony Fauci on 60 Minutes said as much.
Unfortunately for us, but especially for the children, the pandemic offered an opportunity for real world experimentation. If masks worked, then the endless series of universal mask mandates would stop COVID from spreading. Right? After all, we masked toddlers, which often would bring them to tears in the process, we forced school children to wear masks for years on end, and enforced discriminatory practices to ensure unmasked individuals were kept out of businesses.
Except ultimately the global experiment failed.
Multiple years of mandates did literally nothing to slow the spread of the virus. Cities such as Los Angeles had some of the highest mortality rates in the world, despite restrictive mandates. "Higher quality" masks didn't work in European countries. Every claim "experts" made was conclusively disproven.
And now we know why.
