There is a misconception that kids don't get COVID-19, but that's not true. Over 3.9 million children have been infected, and 24% of new cases are in children. Many children have also experienced a multisystem inflammatory syndrome. While masks aren't necessary for kids outdoors, they should wear them indoors if they are around other unvaccinated children or adults, especially in schools.

There is a perception that masks don't work, but that's not true. While the data at the population level is not as strong, there is no doubt that masks work for individuals in protecting themselves and others. Different studies show varying percentages of the advantage of wearing masks, but overall, the weight of the studies indicates the benefits. Some studies suggest that masks may not have a significant impact on the overall pandemic, but that's not the focus here. Right now, there is no need for everyone to wear masks, especially when there is an outbreak. Masks may provide some level of protection, but they are not foolproof and can lead to unintended consequences like touching the face. Masks should primarily be reserved for healthcare providers and those who are ill.

The speaker questions the effectiveness of universal masking and 6 feet of physical distancing in schools. They argue that there is no new high-quality evidence during the pandemic to support the use of masks as a mitigation strategy. Observational studies, including those published by the CDC, are flawed and do not provide evidence for masking children. The speaker also criticizes the arbitrary nature of the 6 feet distancing rule, stating that there is no correlation between distancing measures and case rates in schools. They believe that these non-evidence-based strategies have harmed children and that schools should have remained open without them.

For the general public without symptoms, wearing masks is unnecessary as the virus can still enter through the eyes. Surgical masks, commonly bought at supermarkets, have gaps and do not provide full protection. However, the cabinet has mandated the use of face coverings on public transport for level 2 and above. Some argue against masking healthy individuals, claiming it does more harm than good. In 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) changed its stance on masks, possibly due to political lobbying. Overall, masks are believed to protect both the wearer and those around them.

From a public health standpoint, masks have a marginal effectiveness of around 10% at the population level. However, it is important for everyone, including children, to wear masks in schools. Kids are resilient and wearing masks can actually build their resilience. There is no evidence to suggest that masks have long-term psychological effects on young children. In fact, masking is considered safe and important, especially in schools. Children have no problem wearing masks and understand the need to deal with COVID scientifically. Wearing masks does not harm children and there is ongoing research showing that masks do not put them at risk. It is the responsibility of parents and leaders to set an example and ensure that children wear masks for their own protection.

School reopening strategies are debated, focusing on safety measures like masks and distancing. Remote or hybrid models are considered safer options. The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) supports local unions prioritizing safety, citing concerns about high-risk individuals and community spread. Differing views exist on the safety of children in schools, referencing European experiences where schools remained open with national leadership implementing broader safety measures. The AFT president emphasizes the need for testing, vaccine prioritization, and mitigation strategies for safe reopening, particularly for elementary and special needs students. The discussion addresses the CDC's social distancing guidelines, with the AFT advocating for caution and trust-building. Full-time reopening depends on physical distancing, variants, and parental trust, especially among Black and Brown families. The AFT acknowledges providing language to the White House regarding CDC policy on school reopening and now supports universal mask wearing in schools. The union is reconsidering its stance on mandatory teacher vaccinations.

Vaccinating young children is exciting because it helps prevent school absences. If one child tests positive, the whole class often has to quarantine, which can lead to social isolation. This past year has seen increased anxiety and depression among kids, so avoiding quarantine is crucial. Additionally, vaccination allows children to participate in activities like sleepovers, parties, and sports without the need for testing or quarantine after exposure. Overall, the vaccine can significantly improve children's social experiences and mental well-being.

Face masks are not effective in preventing the spread of viruses, according to virologists and health officials. The types of masks that are commonly worn by the public, such as surgical masks and cloth masks, do not provide adequate protection. They have gaps that allow viruses to enter and can become damp, making them ineffective. Properly fitted N95 masks, worn by healthcare workers, can provide some protection. However, for the general public, wearing masks is not recommended and can even increase the risk of infection if not used correctly. The World Health Organization advises against wearing masks unless you have symptoms or are caring for someone who is sick.

Masks provide some protection but are not foolproof. Wearing masks indoors is recommended, especially in crowded places, even if vaccinated. However, fully vaccinated individuals do not need to wear masks outdoors or indoors. Children should wear masks in the community, but when they are outside with their family, they can go without masks. The CDC suggests that one mask is better than none, and cloth masks can be effective if properly fitted. Double masking is not necessary. The interviewer jokingly asks if Dr. Fauci is a double masker, to which he replies with a laugh.

Wearing a mask can serve as a reminder if you feel sick or as a signal to others. It can also be useful in places like cafeterias to prevent spitting on food. However, there are concerns about the environmental impact of using multiple masks daily and the potential health risks of inhaling plastic particles. Additionally, masks hinder the development of social skills in children by limiting their ability to interpret facial expressions. Lastly, parents wearing masks may unknowingly transfer bacteria and moisture to their babies, posing a risk to their developing immune systems. It is advised to maintain distance from children and remove masks when interacting with them.

Masks are being used to push a false narrative about the virus, leading to compliance and control. While masks have a place in certain situations, such as around those with compromised immune systems, wearing them in everyday settings like grocery stores is unnecessary. Wearing a mask can escalate compliance and reinforce fear, leading to the Nocebo Effect where beliefs and fears become symptoms. Masks also incite fear and stress, which can weaken the immune system. Studies show that masks are ineffective in stopping the spread of the virus, and wearing them incorrectly can actually increase the risk of getting sick. Masks also hinder social development in children. Ultimately, masks are a gateway to compliance with vaccines and more control over individuals.

Doctors who spent years in medicine told me that masks were not effective, yet they were being forced on people, including school kids. This had a devastating impact on their education. It surprises me that the NIH and CDC didn't do follow-up testing to determine the effectiveness and impact on kids. However, there were many studies during the height of COVID transmission that showed masks were working to prevent transmission. Because of this, it is unlikely that anyone would have proposed a clinical trial as there was no longer a question of equipoise.

The CDC is the only agency recommending masks for 2-year-old children. The process for updating guidance involves reviewing studies like the Cochrane review, which mainly includes trials for other respiratory viruses. COVID-19 is different because it can transmit before symptoms appear. Wearing masks is crucial, but the study mentioned had limitations, such as people not fully engaging in the intervention. Masking guidance for schools depends on COVID-19 transmission levels in the community. In low or moderate transmission areas, masking is not recommended, but it is for high transmission areas. The timeline for updating guidance depends on disease levels in the community. When there is a lot of disease, masks are recommended, and when there is less, they can be removed.

Top Exec Resigns and Turns Down $1 Million to Speak Freely on COVID Hypocrisy, with Jennifer Sey
Guests: Jennifer Sey
reSee.it Podcast Summary
In the Megyn Kelly Show, host Megyn Kelly interviews Jennifer Sey, the former president of Levi's, who resigned to speak out against COVID restrictions, particularly school closures. Sey, a long-time advocate for children's rights, faced internal backlash at Levi's after criticizing the impact of lockdowns on kids. She was offered a severance package to remain silent but chose to leave instead, emphasizing the importance of free speech and child advocacy. Sey recounts her background as a national gymnastics champion and discusses her experiences with the culture of obedience in the sport, which shaped her views on individualism and free expression. She highlights the contradiction in Levi's previous support for social issues while stifling dissent regarding school closures, which she views as a non-political stance focused on children's education. The conversation shifts to the ongoing legal battles over mask mandates in schools, particularly in Pennsylvania, where parents and advocates are fighting against new lawsuits aimed at reinstating mask mandates under the Americans with Disabilities Act. These lawsuits claim that without universal masking, immunocompromised children are at risk, despite evidence suggesting that masks do not significantly prevent COVID transmission among children. Kelly introduces guests involved in the fight against mask mandates, including attorney Jay Chadwick Schnee, school board member Jarrett Coleman, and parent Jamie Walker. They discuss the legal and political landscape in Pennsylvania, where some school districts have successfully challenged the governor's authority to impose mask mandates. The group expresses frustration over the lack of transparency in decision-making processes and the perceived hypocrisy of those advocating for continued masking. The discussion highlights the divide among parents regarding mask mandates, with many advocating for a return to normalcy and questioning the effectiveness of cloth masks. They emphasize the need for accountability and the importance of prioritizing children's well-being over political narratives. The interview concludes with a call for a more balanced approach to public health that considers the diverse needs of all students.
