It’s essentially established that using masks to stop the spread of respiratory viruses doesn’t work. There are a variety of reasons why that is, but one of the most powerful is that long-term compliance is impossible to achieve. Even if the masks, used properly, were 100% effective (none is even close), it is impossible for even the most diligent and skilled practitioners to do it properly many times a day, for months and years on end.

That’s why even in medical settings with trained professionals masking doesn’t slow the spread of the virus. Sad, but true. It would be nice to have a non-pharmaceutical intervention that worked, but we don’t.

The Cochrane analysis demonstrated this, and it was widely known and understood in the public health community until it suddenly went insane in 2020. Even masks that could work at any particular time won’t work over time. You will be exposed to the respiratory virus.

You can multiply the impossibility of masks working a million times when it comes to kids. And a million times more when it comes to developmentally disabled and emotionally challenged kids. And again with autistic kids, who can experience extreme distress when forced to use masks. All you are doing is torturing the poor little guys while achieving nothing.

No sane person disputes this.

Hence this, from the insane people in our government:

Every word of this is so disgusting.

I can’t believe HeadStart recommends this video on its official government website in 2023.

Adults can live freely, but toddlers with autism should struggle behind pointless cloth masks.

Yep. Here we are in February 2023 and the Head Start program is still doing its best to help “educators” inflict emotional damage on children. They are literally instructing people on how best to inflict a form of torture on autistic preschoolers in order to accomplish exactly nothing.

Kids are great. I love kids. I love hugging kids, playing with them, and watching them learn and grow up.

But I also know that kids are little germ factories, and are not noted for their self-discipline. That’s why you have to pick your battles when it comes to teaching them things and demanding self-control. Some things are possible and worth the battle; some are remotely possible and not worth the battle; and some things are impossible and certainly not worth the battle.

Getting kids to wear masks and practice proper hygiene protocols with 100% compliance is in the latter category. Many of these kids are still learning how to control their bowels. There is simply no way to get them to wear a mask that has the slightest chance of protecting themselves or anyone else properly, and even less to ensure that they do so all day every day.

Trying to make them is cruel. If there genuinely are teachers involved in these programs who have immune deficiencies they don’t belong there now and didn’t even before COVID. As I said, kids are germ factories. And in a way, they have to be, because that is how their immune system develops. If you want them to survive as adults who are not condemned to living in bubbles, you have to let their immune systems develop.

In Great Britain, during their mask mandates, they specifically excluded autistic people from wearing masks due to the extreme distress that they caused. The Autism Society even created flyers for autistic people to use when people challenged them on the matter.

How selfish are the mask fanatics? How can they require the systematic torture of innocents in order to reinforce their own fantasies about what masks can and cannot accomplish?

Narcissists.
