Michael Osterholm told Fauci, Murthy, Walensky and Jeff Zients that cloth masks barely work and that none of the CDC's supporting studies survive scrutiny. He opened by explaining how he was keeping i
I might dispute the viability of N95s for widespread use too, but that is probably a horse already tenderized enough at this point. For sure, wearing a mask more suitable for robbing a stagecoach NEVER made any sense. At the risk of repeating myself without supplying sufficient context, I went to the CDC website very early on, specifically looking for studies in support of masking. I followed those links and read those studies. What I found was quite bit short of the bar of "survives scientific scrutiny."
One of these evil treasonous genocidal traders from Fauci on down needs to be arrested, tried for crimes against humanity and hung by the neck until dead.
The failure of the CDC and our federal public health officials is almost beyond belief and I doubt they are any better prepared now. Wouldn’t it be the job of the CDC to know, in advance of any pandemic, what measures are effective against the various disease vectors? There are only a limited number of vectors. Food borne, airborne, water borne, sexual transmission, insect borne, animal borne, contact. Shouldn’t the CDC have thoroughly studied each of these and effective mitigation for each? The question for the CDC would be, if masks are effective, why didn’t we have any?!!! As a kid in the 1950’s I remember places like the church basement where my Boy Scout troop met being designated fall out shelters and being stocked with 55 gallon barrels full of water and food. As for the N95 masks, we had even less of those. Not even enough for hospital staff!! N95s are only effective if properly fitted and worn, so not really a good solution for the general public.
