Pushing back against the masks and mandates

 

same question for the masks

Dr Joseph Mercola continues to push back against mandates and lockdowns.  Dr Mercola’s column is at Uncanceled News.  Here’s the bullet point summary:

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

• In a literature review and meta-analysis of the effects of lockdowns on COVID-19 mortality, researchers revealed lockdowns had little to no effect on COVID-19 mortality
• The Brownstone Institute compiled more than 400 studies showing that lockdowns, restrictions and closures failed to do what was promised
• A team of 12 researchers from Johns Hopkins School of Public Health, Harvard Medical School, the University of Oxford and other institutions outlined key reasons why COVID-19 shot mandates have been counterproductive and harmful
• COVID-19 injection mandates could lead to reactance and entrenchment, cognitive dissonance, stigma and scapegoating, and distrust
• If you don’t agree with COVID-19 restrictions and mandates in your area, now is the time to speak out in peaceful protest

Scientists the world over have done a deep dive into the unprecedented lockdowns and injection mandates that characterized the COVID-19 pandemic response. Over and over again, the results confirm what many instinctively knew all along — that these totalitarian schemes didn’t work and may have caused more harm than good.

Despite the writing on the wall, health officials and academics continue to defend the Draconian measures. It’s difficult to admit wrongdoing, especially of this magnitude, but sooner or later it will become widely known that, as Jeffrey Tucker, founder and president of the Brownstone Institute, put it, “these interventions turned a manageable pandemic into a catastrophe.”

Full column is here.  Any one of us can take small steps; yesterday I had two appointments, one at a dental office, the other at a law firm.  And I rode public transportation.  There were mandatory mask signs in all three.  So ---no mask for me.  Resistance baby steps.
