[00:03.000 --> 00:10.000] The Azomacron BA5 rages across the planet doing pretty much no harm whatsoever. [00:10.000 --> 00:16.000] A number of jurisdictions are putting mask mandates back in place. [00:16.000 --> 00:28.000] Over the years, I've done a number of presentations in which I have provided the evidence, the science, that masks don't work. [00:28.000 --> 00:36.000] We'll come back to that shortly, but what are scientists saying about masks right now? [00:52.000 --> 00:54.000] Let's start with this. [00:54.000 --> 01:00.000] John W. Ayers is a Harvard-trained scientist with a doctorate degree in epidemiology. [01:00.000 --> 01:08.000] He is the vice chief of innovation in the Division of Infectious Diseases and Global Public Health. [01:08.000 --> 01:17.000] He's an associate professor in the Department of Medicine and affiliate scientist in the Qualcomm Institute at UC San Diego. [01:17.000 --> 01:27.000] Dr. Ayers has a few things to say about mask wearing, and he said those things in a July 29, 2022 article in the San Diego Union Tribune. [01:27.000 --> 01:34.000] I'm not going to share with you the entire article, but I do want to share with you the things he said, the key points that he made in that article. [01:35.000 --> 01:47.000] Pre-pandemic, masking was discouraged by experts because the evidence then was negative on the protective effects of masking for the wearer. [01:47.000 --> 02:03.000] For instance, a randomized study of health care providers who wore cloth masks for four weeks in 14 hospitals in Hanoi, Vietnam during 2011 found they experienced higher rates of respiratory illness [02:03.000 --> 02:13.000] and laboratory-confirmed viral infection, an influenza-like illness than controls, who followed the usual practices while working. [02:13.000 --> 02:26.000] Guidance by the World Health Organization in January 2020 stated that, quote, cloth masks are not recommended under any circumstance, close quote. [02:26.000 --> 02:38.000] Dr. Ayers continues, misunderstandings about the quality of evidence have, I'm sorry, you know, this quality of evidence thing, I have hammered on that and hammered on that and hammered on that [02:38.000 --> 02:47.000] because the media will throw up the worst, the least scientific crap you could ever want. They'll throw it up there and they'll tell you that this is science. [02:47.000 --> 02:58.000] So again, I'm sorry for the interruption. This is Dr. Ayers again, misunderstandings about the quality of evidence have resulted in a substantial amount of misinformation and harm. [02:58.000 --> 03:04.000] Randomized controlled trials are the evidentiary gold standard. [03:04.000 --> 03:17.000] 14 of 16 trials performed before the pandemic found the recommendation to wear a mask did not significantly reduce infection rates compared to the unmasked controls. [03:18.000 --> 03:30.000] Two trials on community masking have been performed during the pandemic. A trial in Denmark called Denmask showed the recommendation to wear surgical masks did not reduce infections. [03:30.000 --> 03:38.000] A trial in Bangladesh showed reusable cloth masks did not reduce infections, close quote. [03:38.000 --> 03:45.000] As you can see, there is no science that states that masks work and we're going to get into that more here in just a moment. [03:45.000 --> 03:56.000] But I want to talk about the fact that one of the areas where these shall I be kind and simply say overzealous public officials are reinstituting mask mandate is in the schools. [03:56.000 --> 04:01.000] Although the CDC has stopped providing this kind of data back in February of 2022. [04:01.000 --> 04:07.000] At that time, they said that 75 percent of children had already been infected with SARS-CoV-2. [04:07.000 --> 04:12.000] That was February. Since February, we've had the Omicron BA4 and BA5 waves. [04:12.000 --> 04:19.000] So I think it is realistic to say that number is almost certainly in the very high 90 percentile. [04:19.000 --> 04:27.000] So if we pick a number out of the hat and say that 96 percent of school aged children have already been infected with SARS-CoV-2, [04:27.000 --> 04:33.000] then what is the benefit of asking people who already have prior infection immunity to wear masks? [04:33.000 --> 04:39.000] Everyone. 96 percent. That's damn close to everyone. They already have the antibodies. They've already been infected. [04:39.000 --> 04:43.000] They're not going to get it again. And if they did happen to get it again, it would be incredibly mild. [04:43.000 --> 04:47.000] So we're having children wear masks again. Why? [04:47.000 --> 04:51.000] The answer to that question is that these government bodies, these school districts, [04:51.000 --> 04:58.000] are using outdated CDC metrics for when to initiate a mask mandate. [04:58.000 --> 05:01.000] Now, of course, we know that masks don't work, so there's no time that you want to initiate a mask mandate. [05:01.000 --> 05:09.000] But nevertheless, the CDC has a now seriously outdated metric that pertains to the number of hospitalizations. [05:09.000 --> 05:13.000] When your hospitalizations for SARS-CoV-2 reach a certain level, [05:13.000 --> 05:17.000] then this CDC recommendation kicks in that everybody wear masks. [05:17.000 --> 05:26.000] However, when I say outdated, that metric was established before hospitals were distinguishing [05:26.000 --> 05:31.000] between incidental infections and hospitalizations for SARS-CoV-2. [05:31.000 --> 05:35.000] In other words, what that means is there are people who are sick because they have COVID-19, [05:35.000 --> 05:41.000] and they go to the hospital because they've got COVID-19. That is the reason they're at the hospital. [05:41.000 --> 05:46.000] By contrast, an incidental infection is the person doesn't even know they're infected. [05:46.000 --> 05:50.000] They go there because they have a broken arm, or they stubbed their toe, or they're delivering a baby. [05:50.000 --> 05:54.000] And when they show up, they get tested before the hospital will intake them. [05:54.000 --> 05:59.000] And they come up positive. Back when CDC created this metric, [05:59.000 --> 06:03.000] there was no distinguishing between people who were in the hospital because of COVID-19 [06:03.000 --> 06:07.000] and people who were in the hospital and incidentally had COVID-19. [06:08.000 --> 06:12.000] Now we keep that data, but CDC isn't making that available. [06:12.000 --> 06:20.000] And CDC has not bothered to correct its ancient, outdated, no longer relevant, no longer applicable metrics, [06:20.000 --> 06:25.000] which the school districts, in their ignorance, continue to follow. [06:25.000 --> 06:31.000] So we've covered the science briefly, and we've covered the flawed establishment dogma [06:31.000 --> 06:35.000] that places like school districts are still adhering to. [06:35.000 --> 06:40.000] But is there another more practical way that you can tell whether or not masks work? [06:40.000 --> 06:48.000] Sure. It's the result or the outcome of wearing masks or not wearing masks that you can see with your own two eyes. [06:48.000 --> 06:59.000] During 2020, starting in about March of 2020, I did quite a number of presentations on masks. [06:59.000 --> 07:04.000] And a lot of what I did is I compared what was going on with SARS-CoV-2, the infections in various states and locales [07:04.000 --> 07:07.000] and when they had mask mandates and when they dropped the mask mandates. [07:07.000 --> 07:13.000] And it clearly showed that masks made absolutely zero difference. [07:13.000 --> 07:17.000] The point being, when the numbers were going up or when the numbers were going down, [07:17.000 --> 07:21.000] when they put a mask mandate in place or they took a mask mandate away, nothing changed, nothing. [07:21.000 --> 07:24.000] Now, I said I had done quite a few videos. [07:24.000 --> 07:32.000] Oh, I'm going to guess I did probably close to 20 videos discussing in whole or in part the mask issue. [07:32.000 --> 07:35.000] Now, you don't need to watch all those and I'm sure you don't want to. [07:35.000 --> 07:39.000] But I'm going to put a link to just one of those down in the notes and you'll see for yourself. [07:39.000 --> 07:42.000] Now, back to a little bit more about what the science says. [07:42.000 --> 07:52.000] My primary point in a number of those videos that masks don't work is that research from 1920, [07:52.000 --> 07:57.000] when the very first study was done concerning the wearing of masks during a viral outbreak, [07:57.000 --> 08:04.000] in fact, it was another pandemic, it was the Spanish flu of 1918 and towards the end of 1920, [08:04.000 --> 08:12.000] a very talented doctor in California decided that he wanted to know why it appeared to him that masks don't work. [08:12.000 --> 08:15.000] So he actually went about formulating. [08:15.000 --> 08:18.000] For 1920, I was quite impressed. [08:18.000 --> 08:23.000] He formulated a number of different experiments that he could run to determine whether masks work. [08:23.000 --> 08:26.000] And that was the very first research ever done on mask wearing. [08:26.000 --> 08:32.000] And the conclusion was masks don't slow or halt the spread of a virus. [08:32.000 --> 08:34.000] That was 1920. [08:34.000 --> 08:37.000] So moving forward, I think this is the really important part. [08:37.000 --> 08:50.000] From 1920 through 2021, not a single study concerning mask wearing had ever concluded [08:50.000 --> 08:54.000] that wearing a mask slows or halts the spread of a virus. [08:54.000 --> 08:59.000] Not one in more than 100 years. [08:59.000 --> 09:09.000] And that only changed in early 2021 when the CDC on its website posted a horribly flawed... [09:09.000 --> 09:11.000] I'm laughing because it was so flawed. [09:11.000 --> 09:15.000] To call it a study is to do violence to the word study. [09:15.000 --> 09:20.000] They posted this study, only had a handful of participants. [09:20.000 --> 09:22.000] It was very brief in duration. [09:23.000 --> 09:29.000] And it had none of the kind of controls that you would have in a study to actually make the conclusion viable. [09:29.000 --> 09:33.000] And that study of course headlined, proof that masks work. [09:33.000 --> 09:40.000] Now, the science community has had a number of different opinions from early 2020 through now [09:40.000 --> 09:44.000] concerning various aspects of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 and the vaccines and so forth. [09:44.000 --> 09:51.000] However, every single researcher, every single scientist, every single epidemiologist [09:51.000 --> 10:00.000] that looked at that CDC study said it is so flawed, so horribly flawed that the conclusions are utterly meaningless. [10:00.000 --> 10:06.000] And that statement that the conclusions are meaningless isn't true. [10:06.000 --> 10:12.000] It was very meaningful because it was intended as propaganda. [10:12.000 --> 10:22.000] The headline from CDC's fake science propaganda piece was spread far and wide across hundreds of different media outlets [10:22.000 --> 10:26.000] that cumulatively have hundreds of millions of followers. [10:26.000 --> 10:32.000] And they all saw the headline, CDC study shows masks work. [10:32.000 --> 10:36.000] So it wasn't meaningless at all. [10:36.000 --> 10:47.000] It was an incredibly successful propaganda piece, which was and is part of a much larger disinformation campaign [10:47.000 --> 10:53.000] run by the establishment and headed up by the United States government and supported by companies such as Facebook and Twitter [10:53.000 --> 11:00.000] who support the government's disinformation campaign by removing factual information. [11:00.000 --> 11:06.000] So the only information left is this kind of fake study put forth by the CDC as propaganda, [11:06.000 --> 11:13.000] which was one small element of a much larger disinformation campaign, which is still going on this very day. [11:13.000 --> 11:17.000] And when I talk about enterprises such as Facebook and Twitter, here's how this works. [11:17.000 --> 11:23.000] Once CDC came out and said, we have a study showing masks work, [11:23.000 --> 11:27.000] companies like Facebook and Twitter's and other censorship platforms, [11:27.000 --> 11:33.000] they did not care that every scientist who looked at that study laughed at it and said the conclusion was meaningless [11:33.000 --> 11:34.000] because the study was so flawed. [11:34.000 --> 11:37.000] Companies like Facebook and Twitter did not care. [11:37.000 --> 11:44.000] They then were able to adopt the position that the official statement of the CDC is masks work. [11:44.000 --> 11:55.000] So if you say masks don't work, even if you have a truckload of data to show the CDC was wrong and that masks do not work, [11:55.000 --> 12:00.000] if you put it on your profile on Facebook or you put it on your account on Twitter that masks don't work, [12:00.000 --> 12:07.000] the very fact that CDC contrived a fake study that said masks work and published it on its website, [12:07.000 --> 12:12.000] then if you say the alternative, if you say the truth, if you say masks don't work, [12:12.000 --> 12:16.000] then you can be suspended or you can have your account permanently removed. [12:16.000 --> 12:18.000] Ask me how I know that. [12:19.000 --> 12:27.000] One of the primary reasons that YouTube deplatform my channel was because of all those videos saying masks don't work, [12:27.000 --> 12:32.000] which contradicted the official statement of the CDC. [12:32.000 --> 12:34.000] So I had to go. [12:34.000 --> 12:45.000] The takeaway here is that the narrative that masks work has always been part of a government disinformation campaign. [12:45.000 --> 12:53.000] Basically, the government wanted to know how stupid and obedient the American people would be. [12:53.000 --> 12:55.000] Now the government knows. [12:55.000 --> 13:02.000] Of course, this is hardly the only disinformation campaign that the United States government, the broader establishment, have run. [13:02.000 --> 13:06.000] I've talked about this many times, the fraud of the income tax. [13:06.000 --> 13:09.000] I want to be very clear, the income tax is not a fraud. [13:09.000 --> 13:11.000] The income tax is a real thing. [13:11.000 --> 13:20.000] The fraudulent part, the scam is that by arguably the most successful disinformation campaign the United States government has ever run and is continuing to run, [13:20.000 --> 13:26.000] I'm going to go out on a limb here and say like 98% of the public actually believes that the income tax has been imposed on them. [13:26.000 --> 13:30.000] In other words, they get up in the morning, they have a cup of coffee, they get the kids off to school, they go to work and they earn some money. [13:30.000 --> 13:32.000] They owe some to the government. [13:32.000 --> 13:36.000] The government has convinced the American people of that and it's utter and complete bunk. [13:36.000 --> 13:38.000] It's total nonsense. [13:38.000 --> 13:45.000] If you want to know about that, go to DrReality.News, DrReality.News, grab yourself a copy of Income Tax Shattering the Mist. [13:45.000 --> 13:51.000] It looks at the statutes, the regulations, treasury orders, treasury decisions, Supreme Court decisions and on and on and on. [13:51.000 --> 13:55.000] Going from 1913 all the way forward in a super readable manner. [13:55.000 --> 13:58.000] A lot of people equate it to being like a mystery. [13:58.000 --> 14:02.000] You know who done it, but you want to know how they did it. [14:02.000 --> 14:04.000] And that's what Income Tax Shattering the Mist does. [14:04.000 --> 14:06.000] It makes that so, so, so crystal clear. [14:06.000 --> 14:08.000] Not my words, their words. [14:08.000 --> 14:13.000] When you close the final chapter, you say, holy cow, Champion was right. [14:13.000 --> 14:20.000] I have been the victim of arguably what is the most successful disinformation campaign in the history of the United States government. [14:20.000 --> 14:25.000] And something similar is true in body science where I talk about human physiology. [14:25.000 --> 14:33.000] And the reason that the United States with all of our wealth and all of our technological prowess in this gigantic medical industry and all the technology that we have. [14:33.000 --> 14:38.000] America is the most chronically ill society in all of human history. [14:38.000 --> 14:40.000] Did you get that part? [14:40.000 --> 14:45.000] The most chronically ill society in all of human history. [14:45.000 --> 14:56.000] And it's not your fault, really, because for the last 60 years, the United States government and various constituent parts out in what I call the establishment. [14:56.000 --> 14:59.000] The establishment changes depending on what subject you're talking about. [15:00.000 --> 15:11.000] But generally speaking, the establishment is the government and or various entities that stand to make billions or trillions of dollars by lying to you. [15:11.000 --> 15:17.000] And the establishment has done that concerning human physiology, most specifically what your body does with the macros that you intake. [15:17.000 --> 15:24.000] America keeps eating the stuff the government has said, this is healthy for you, this is good for you, this is what you should eat. [15:24.000 --> 15:26.000] And they're getting sicker. [15:26.000 --> 15:28.000] And sicker is really not funny. [15:28.000 --> 15:31.000] But I talk about it so much sometimes it's just it makes me laugh. [15:31.000 --> 15:34.000] The American public is getting sicker and sicker and sicker. [15:34.000 --> 15:36.000] And yet they still believe it. [15:36.000 --> 15:41.000] So I had to write body science because I really want to help my fellow man. [15:41.000 --> 15:44.000] And the world population is in excess of seven billion people right now. [15:44.000 --> 15:52.000] And every single person on the planet should read body science, especially those in any modern Western country, [15:52.000 --> 15:59.000] because they're the ones that have been most affected by the establishment's highly successful disinformation campaign, [15:59.000 --> 16:08.000] which, by the way, has put trillions and trillions and trillions and trillions of dollars into the pockets of the corporations and entities that comprise the establishment on this subject. [16:08.000 --> 16:12.000] So they've been making trillions of dollars while you've been dying. [16:12.000 --> 16:20.000] So if you're interested in that, go to drreality.news, again drreality.news, grab yourself a copy of body science or body science and income tax shattering the most. [16:20.000 --> 16:25.000] Also, doing that helps me to continue to be here for you. [16:25.000 --> 16:27.000] Thanks. Take care. Have a great day.
