science … By their obscene non-logic, a scientific review of science articles reporting on
harms caused by face masks has a ‘potential to cause harm’. No criticism of the psychological
device (face masks) is tolerated, if the said criticism shows potential to influence public policy.
This is what happens in a fascist world.
Where are the ‘greens’ (again)?
Other dangers of wearing masks especially regularly relate to the
inhalation of minute plastic fibres into the lungs and the deluge of
discarded masks in the environment and oceans. Estimates
predicted that more than 1.5 billion disposable masks will end up in
the world’s oceans every year polluting the water with tons of plastic
and endangering marine wildlife. Studies project that humans are
using 129 billion face masks each month worldwide – about three
million a minute. Most are disposable and made from plastic, nonbiodegradable
microfibers that break down into smaller plastic
particles that become widespread in ecosystems. They are li ering
cities, clogging sewage channels and turning up in bodies of water. I
have wri en in other books about the immense amounts of
microplastics from endless sources now being absorbed into the
body. Rolf Halden, director of the Arizona State University (ASU)
Biodesign Center for Environmental Health Engineering, was the
senior researcher in a 2020 study that analysed 47 human tissue
samples and found microplastics in all of them. ‘We have detected
these chemicals of plastics in every single organ that we have
investigated’, he said. I wrote in The Answer about the world being
deluged with microplastics. A study by the Worldwide Fund for
Nature (WWF) found that people are consuming on average every
week some 2,000 tiny pieces of plastic mostly through water and also
through marine life and the air. Every year humans are ingesting
enough microplastics to fill a heaped dinner plate and in a life-time
of 79 years it is enough to fill two large waste bins. Marco
Lambertini, WWF International director general said: ‘Not only are
plastics polluting our oceans and waterways and killing marine life –
it’s in all of us and we can’t escape consuming plastics,’ American
