10 REASONS NOT TO WEAR A FACE MASK
1. MASKS DON’T WORK
A. Masks Don’t Work: A review of science relevant to COVID-19 social policy
There have been extensive randomized controlled trial (RCT) studies, and meta-analysis reviews of RCT studies, which all show that masks and respirators do not work to prevent respiratory influenza-like illnesses, or respiratory illnesses believed to be transmitted by droplets and aerosol particles.
The present paper about masks illustrates the degree to which governments, the mainstream media, and institutional propagandists can decide to operate in a science vacuum , or select only incomplete science that serves their interests. Such recklessness is also certainly the case with the current global lockdown of over 1 billion people, an unprecedented experiment in medical and political history.
This paper by Denis G. Rancourt, PhD Researcher, Ontario Civil Liberties Associatio, reviews medical literature, giving key anchor points to the extensive scientific literature that establishes that wearing surgical masks and respirators (e.g., “N95”) does not reduce the risk of contracting a verified illness:

B. Why Face Masks Don’t Work: A Revealing Review
It is a stark reminder that scientific knowledge is constantly changing as new discoveries contradict established beliefs . For at least three decades a face mask has been deemed an essential component of the personal protective equipment (PPE) worn by dental personnel.
In 2014, the nursing profession was implored to “stop using practice interventions that are based on tradition ” but instead adopt protocols that are based on critical evaluations of the available evidence.
No matter how well a mask conforms to the shape of a person’s face, it is not designed to create an air-tight seal around the face. Masks will always fit fairly loosely with considerable gaps along the cheeks, around the bridge of the nose and along the bottom edge of the mask below the chin. These gaps do not provide adequate protection as they permit the passage of air and aerosols when the wearer inhales.
It should be no surprise that a study of eight brands of face masks found that they did not filter out 20-100% of particles varying in size from 0.1 to 4.0 microns.
“There is no specific requirement to prove that the existing masks are effective and there is no standard test or set of data required supporting the assertion of equivalence. Nor does the FDA conduct or sponsor testing of surgical masks.”

2. HEALTH AUTHORITIES DO NOT ROUTINELY RECOMMEND THE USE OF FACE MASKS BY WELL PERSONS
A. Public Health England Advice
Questions from PHE website:
Should people wear face masks to protect themselves from infection? Face masks play a very important role in clinical settings, such as hospitals but there’s very little evidence of widespread benefit from their use outside of these clinical settings. Facemasks must be worn correctly, changed frequently, removed properly and disposed of safely in order to be effective.
Should I wear a face covering? Face coverings offer minimal benefit to the wearer, but may help you protect others and reduce the spread of the disease if you are suffering from coronavirus but not showing any symptoms. Consider wearing a face covering if you have to use public transport to get to work, or are visiting a busy enclosed space where you can’t social distance such as a crowded shop.
Gibraltar is in line with PHE's advice – Press Conference 28th April 2020
B. The Center for Disease Control does not routinely recommend the use of face mask by well persons.
So … not only did the CDC know that there was limited effectiveness of N95 masks in stopping the H1N1 flu, but quarantines (of ONLY the sick, since quarantining the healthy is nonsensical) were mildly effective and lead to economic problems.
The CDC does not routinely recommend the use of face masks by well persons. It might recommend them for ill persons as a source of control measures during SEVERE, or very severe pandemics.
MUST READ: The below article addresses more than face mask like quarantines and advanced planning.
C. Coronavirus: Who should wear a face mask or face covering?
This article covers “new” WHO recommendations:
Coronavirus: Who should wear a face mask or face covering?
D. Remember the Director of Public Health Gibraltar, Sohail Bhatti early advice?
He said face masks are effective for 15 minutes and often taken off improperly. About wearing a face mask shopping, he said, “What a great way to declare to everyone that you might be Covid positive and creating fear and avoidance around you. I don’t think that works particularly well.”
WHO says no evidence wearing a mask would prevent infection in a healthy person - Dr Bhatti says
The advice CHANGED to stay in line with other health organizations; and Public Health Gibraltar recommends the same precautions as the PHE, wearing masks on public transport and when social distancing cannot be observed, as mentioned.
Gibraltar takes strict approach to coronavirus precautions, but nothing is risk free
The Gibraltar Ministry of Propaganda got in line with the global narrative; and Bhatti backtracked on his advice:
The Gibraltar Chronicle published this article, which cited one study.
Widespread face mask use could shrink ‘R’ and stop second Covid-19 wave – study
see also:
Govt issues guidance on face coverings in enclosed public spaces
Also notice that that face masks will give a false perception that one is protected, when these claims of protection are false and misleading.
AND, Bhatti was correct when he first said face masks do keep the FEAR level up – was that the global agenda? To keep FEAR alive?
3. FACE MASKS DO NOT PROTECT AGAINST CORONAVIRUS, AS PER MANUFACTURER'S LABEL
This product is an ear loop mask. This product is not a respirator and will not provide any protection against Covid19 or other viruses or contaminates.
Understand the difference between surgical mask and N95 Respirator:
A surgical mask does NOT provide the wearer with a reliable level of protection from inhaling smaller airborne particles and is not considered respiratory protection
Source -
Masks are loose fitting and may not provide full protection from breathing in airborne pathogens, such as viruses.
Face masks (non-surgical masks) may not provide protection from fluids or may not filter particles, needed to protect against pathogens, such as viruses. They are not for surgical use and are not considered personal protective equipment .
Surgical masks are fluid-resistant, disposable, and loose-fitting devices that create a physical barrier between the mouth and nose of the wearer and the immediate environment. They are for use in surgical settings and do not provide full protection from inhalation of airborne pathogens, such as viruses.
PROTECTIVE FACE MASK (FFP3/N95) Precautions and Contraindications
See: http://n95instructions.com/
BY THE WAY: Face masks are not recommended for children younger than 5 years old (some say 2 years); and some say masks are not designed for children.
AND they are not recommended for those who have difficulty breathing.
4. LIMITS OXYGEN INTAKE
Some say that face masks limits oxygen intake, and that it isn’t wise to constantly breath what you are exhaling.
If face mask limit oxygen intake – then why limit it? The medical industry is prescribing oxygen to those severely affected. Their efforts included gets a supply of oxygen tanks for hospitals.
5. THERE ARE DIVIDED OPINIONS ON THE EFFECTIVENESS
Concerns include people not wearing them correctly and people constantly touching their faces and adjusting the masks.
One medical expert told MailOnline that masks 'cannot' protect against the virus and that wearing them may even make it worse. Meanwhile Public Health England has warned that there is 'very little evidence' that masks are effective 'outside of clinical settings' such as hospitals.
The way you wear a mask is crucially importantly, academics say, because unless it is tight to the nose and mouth contaminated sneezes and coughs will get through - or linger on the surface.
He added that masks may make the spread of the virus more likely if they become damp .

After doing your own research, form your own opinion and act accordingly.
6. THEY ARE TREATED WITH HARMFUL CHEMICALS
Some individuals are allergic to materials and chemicals used to make face masks; and can have severe health reactions.
China, which supplies much of the medical goods, use harmful chemicals to treat them. It’s not just medical goods, but also fabrics. Investigate the use of Formaldehyde and ethylene oxide in fabric and materials.
Face masks laced with chemicals like Formaldehyde that can cause allergic reactions.
Read: Surgical mask contact dermatitis and epidemiology of contact dermatitis in healthcare workers
Although contact dermatitis in healthcare workers is common, there are very few case reports about surgical mask dermatitis. Contact dermatitis due to N95 masks during the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) pandemic has been documented in a few studies. The article further explores dibromodicyanobutane as a known cause of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD).
The manufacturer of the mask denied the use of any of the agents. But we found positive on commercial allergen patch testing, dibromodicyanobutane preservative in the adhesive used to attach the polyester foam strip to the mask textile was considered the most likely cause of the patient’s contact dermatitis.
The most common relevant general offending allergens also affecting healthcare workers are thiuram and carbamates (rubber accelerators and additives), thiomersal (vaccine preservative), benzalkonium chloride (preservative), formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde (disinfectants), quaternium 15 (formaldehyde-releasing http://www.dermnetnz.org/topics/contact-allergy-to-preservatives/preservative) and fragrances used in pharmaceutical products. Formaldehyde and formaldehyde-releasing preservatives are used widely in many products in our environment, both generally and in healthcare. This makes it difficult sometimes to establish whether proven allergies are work-related. Disposable gowns and masks, used as personal protective equipment, have been described as potential formaldehyde exposures in healthcare settings.
It has been attributed to free formaldehyde, which was confirmed to be present in certain types of N95 mask.
The analysis of the N95 mask used by the latter patient confirmed the presence of free formaldehyde in his mask. This was unexpected, since it was not displayed on the manufacturer’s list of ingredients.

Formaldehyde in your fabrics
For years the textile industry has been using finishes on fabric that prevents wrinkling – usually a formaldehyde resin.
According to the American Contact Dermatitis Society, rayon, blended cotton, corduroy, wrinkle-resistant 100% cotton, and any synthetic blended polymer are likely to have been treated with formaldehyde resins. The types of resins used include urea-formaldehyde, melamine-formaldehyde and phenol-formaldehyde. Manufacturers often “hide” the word “formaldehyde” under daunting chemical names.
Formaldehyde is another one of those chemicals that just isn’t good for humans. Long known as the Embalmer’s Friend for its uses in funeral homes and high school biology labs, formaldehyde effects depend upon the intensity and length of the exposure and the sensitivity of the individual to the chemical.
Besides being associated with watery eyes, burning sensations in the eyes and throat, nausea, difficulty in breathing, coughing, some pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs), asthma attacks, chest tightness, headaches, and general fatigue, as well as the rashes and other illnesses such as reported by the TSA officers, formaldehyde is associated with more severe health issues.
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified formaldehyde as a human carcinogen.

According to the precautions of the PROTECTIVE FACE MASK (FFP3/N95) above, the product has been sterilized with ethylene oxide .
What is ethylene oxide?
Although too dangerous for direct household use and generally unfamiliar to consumers, ethylene oxide is used for making many consumer products as well as non-consumer chemicals and intermediates.
As a toxic gas that leaves residue on items it contacts including food and spices, ethylene oxide is a surface disinfectant that is widely used in hospitals and the medical equipment industry to replace steam in the sterilization of heat-sensitive tools and equipment, such as disposable plastic syringes. It is so flammable and extremely explosive that it is used as a main component of thermobaric weapons ( aerosol bomb).
According to the National Cancer Institute, lymphoma and leukemia are the cancers most frequently reported to be associated with occupational exposure to ethylene oxide. Stomach and breast cancers may also be associated with ethylene oxide exposure. At room temperature, ethylene oxide is a flammable colorless gas with a sweet odor. It is used primarily to produce other chemicals, including antifreeze. In smaller amounts, ethylene oxide is used as a pesticide and a sterilizing agent. The ability of ethylene oxide to damage DNA makes it an effective sterilizing agent but also accounts for its cancer-causing activity.
7. DISPOSABLE FACE MASKS ARE NOT ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY
Creating more trash isn’t the answer, especially when their effectiveness cannot be guaranteed.
Gibraltar is already experiencing the effects of people trashing them.
Most people do not recognize that Lucifer/Satan is the Destroyer. He works to destroy the earth and ALL LIFE on the earth. And with his Synagogue, the market-system was created to make disposable products so that people constantly buy new products and trash the earth. Devices are upgraded in this system so that people constantly buy new devices. If it were about sustainability, you wouldn’t need to buy a new printer just because ink cartridges for your current one are no longer produced.
8. THE FAKES ARE OUT THERE – all in the name of supporting the market-beast system.
China manufactures fake, cheap products.
A. Counterfeit Masks Reaching Frontline Health Workers in US
An Associated Press investigation has found those masks were counterfeits — as are millions of medical masks, gloves, gowns and other supplies being used in hospitals across the country, putting lives at risk.

B. MASK SCANDAL Dangerous counterfeit coronavirus masks sent to front-line healthcare workers ‘from Chinese firm approved by US’
FAKE N95 masks from China were shipped to American doctors on the frontline of the coronavirus pandemic, despite warnings the masks were counterfeit.
The masks inside were stamped as if approved by the U.S. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health signifying they had been certified by the U.S. government as safe for workers in health care settings.

Trump says he DID wear a mask - but was told he didn't need it
C. Chinese company charged with sending defective face masks to the US
A Chinese manufacturing company has been charged with shipping more than 140,000 defective face masks, marketed as “KN95,” to the U.S. in the middle of the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
D. How to spot fake N95, NIOSH, or KN95 respirator mask from China
For example, the FDA doesn’t approve N95 respirators, so if it says it’s approved that should be a red flag.
E. Counterfeit Respirators / Misrepresentation of NIOSH-Approval
Counterfeit respirators are products that are falsely marketed and sold as being NIOSH-approved and may not be capable of providing appropriate respiratory protection to workers.
SIDENOTE:
The fake mask debacle doesn’t even address the bad Covid19 tests sent from China.
As the coronavirus landed in Italy and began to sweep across the continent, European leaders turned to China for testing kits to quickly identify infection hot spots.
Some are regretting it.
9. COVID19 TESTS ARE SUSPECTED TO ACTUALLY INFECT PEOPLE WITH A VIRUS
Could Contaminated COVID-19 Tests Help Spread the Virus?
This begs the question if it’s BIOLOGICAL WARFARE , especially because manufacturers have denied using chemicals; and they do not list all ingredients used, as pointed out above.
Create a virus, sell contaminated, or treated test kits to unsuspecting enemies in the West under the guise of “helping” whilst playing the market-system game.
10. DO NOT WEAR A FACE MASK AS PROOF YOU ARE NOT FALLING FOR THE PSYOP, MEANT TO INSTILL FEAR WORLDWIDE.
