ANALYSIS/OPINION:
The RAND study is one of many studies demonstrating that there was no positive effect from the COVID-19 lockdowns and in fact, as one might guess, the lockdowns were positively correlated with excess, all-cause mortality (“Shelter-in-place orders didn’t help, researchers find,” Page 1, July 5).
Another piece of peer-reviewed, randomized-control trial evidence should also be added to the RAND study. That study was published in Journal of the American Medical Association in June and dealt with carbon dioxide levels in children who wear masks. These kids’ carbon-dioxide levels averaged six times higher than normal when they wore the masks. That is six times the legal limit for indoor room air. Some children in the JAMA study were experiencing up to 10 times the legal limit.
Go back 18 months and you will find plenty of medical experts criticizing masks for children. They all got censored. Anybody putting a mask on a 7-year-old ought to be jailed for child abuse. If there were any justice, the so-called scientific experts and the tech oligarchs that protected them (including, especially, Anthony Fauci) ought to be held accountable.
The Chinese Communist Party handed a rope to the free world, and the free world used it to hang itself.
