Not Masks Again
What government knows about masks
There is a lot of talk about masks, so I thought I would post a brief synopsis of the evidence, though not all 170 scientific scientific reviews—in case you are contacting your MP/MLA
Masks never worked and government knows it. They also cause serious harms.
Government advisers advice re masks and Mr Hancock’s reiteration of it.

1 “It was deeply concerning to see schools “strongly encouraging” children to wear face coverings before the summer break. Despite early hopes, we now know from the real world data that mask mandates had no significant effect on interrupting the spread of coronavirus. Meanwhile, the damaging unintended harms of covering our faces are profound and still being felt. The use of masks is not, and has never been, a benign or recommended public health intervention “( signed by the Co Chairs of the APPG (All Party Group at Westminster on Pandemic Response and Recovery)
2 The UK Government’s own Evidence Summary on the use of face coverings in education settings found they had NO statistically significant effect on transmission – the evidence showing they serve NO purpose in controlling the spread of Covid.
3 And according to Carl Heneghan Professor of Evidence based Medicine at Oxford University, “There is no evidence that masks are protecting children and teachers in schools.” Which he repeated very recently on his Substack “Clinical Trials Show No Clear-Cut Effect of masks”
4 Prof Carl Heneghan
We also cited the co-author of Mr Hancock’s pandemic memoir, revealing that Johnson, Whitty and Hancock knew from the start that masks do not do the job, and yet they went ahead and coerced Britons to wear them.
The reality is different. Clinical trials in various settings - across vastly different ranges of circulation rates - from low influenza-like illness to pandemics have failed to show any effect. Which tallies with everyone’s personal experience of mask “protection”. So, why the sudden reintroduction?
5 Mandatory face coverings is the wrong policy, says Professor Carl Heneghan, Professor of Evidence based medicine at Oxford and a government advisor addressing the N.I Executive.
Face masks do not work to significantly reduce the spread of Covid, according to the evidence. Dr. Carl Heneghan, Professor of Evidence-Based Medicine at Oxford University, told the N.I. Executive on August 10th 2020 that mandatory face coverings was the wrong policy:
He believes the evidence used to impose the mandatory wearing of masks in public spaces is "poor quality",
“By all means people can wear masks but they can’t say it’s an evidence based decision”
6 Prof Tom Jefferson (Honorary Senior Research Fellow, Oxford University)
“Aside from people who are exposed on the frontlines there is no evidence that masks make any difference”
7 -Face masks should not be worn by healthy individuals-there is no evidence to suggest they are effective in stopping such people from becoming ill. (American Medical Association)
8 And Jenny Haries Deputy Chief Scientific Officer of England puts it thus “masks could actually trap the virus and the wearer then starts to breathe it in putting themselves at more risk”
9 The European Community Trial
European community trial of masks and the update of the Cochrane Review that found no significant effect for facemask wearers.

“Many governments have made nose and mouth covering or face masks compulsory for schoolchildren. The evidence base for this is weak”.
I urge you to read/watch these---these articles include the harms of masks.

GRAPHICAL REPRESENATIONS OF THE EVIDENCE
—please see the Substack/Newsletter articles above.
The Association of American Physicians and Surgeons concludes: “Wearing masks will not be effective at preventing transmission, whether worn as source control or as PPE. And according to Carl Heneghan again “There is no evidence that masks are protecting children and teachers in schools.” Which he repeated very recently on his Substack “Clinical Trials Show No Clear-Cut Effect of masks”
Masks remain at the centre of the fear agenda and their continued use ignores their ineffectiveness and the harm they are doing

• As stated previously, the scientific evidence suggests that face coverings achieve no appreciable reduction in the transmission of respiratory viruses. Policies requiring habitual face coverings are not based on solid empirical evidence; a piece of ill-fitting cloth or plastic does not transform into an impermeable viral barrier by virtue of crossing the threshold of a hospital or health centre.

Over Here, I hope that the entire membership of SAGE never manage to sleep for more than ten minutes maximum for the rest of their lives, as indeed Fauci and his accomplices will never rest easy.
You asked Why?
Because the 'powers that be' know they are losing their grip and want to put vulnerable people back into a state of irrational fear. To turn questions of excess deaths and the overrun NHS not from 'covid' back into a focus they think might distract from dawning reality. The visible symbol of acwuiescence has been a very powerful tool for them. It is one way they can easily see who they are manipulating.
