Do you miss having a blue rag clamped over your mouth and nose? Frowns from the people wearing masks? Having to shuffle six feet apart from the line at the supermarket counter?
In Governor Gavin Newsom’s California, the local health officials have you covered.
Across California, ‘health officials’ are calling for bringing back masks. They’re describing a “summer COVID wave” in September (trust the science) before a predicted “winter wave” and warning that everyone will either be dead or masked by the spring.
“California is experiencing a summer COVID wave,” Dr. Aimee Sisson, the health officer for Yolo County, claimed in a press release, and recommended that everyone over the age of 2 in West Sacramento “wear a mask when they are around others in indoor public spaces.”
Why do we have to mask children? Because it’s fun for the whole family. And for that most useless and destructive element of California officialdom: the professional health official.
How much COVID is there really in Yolo County? It’s hard to say because the databases that were urgently tracking COVID gave up once there was no longer any bad news to report.
The latest figure in Yolo is from July which records 0 deaths. Last year there were 0.4 deaths and we must offer our condolences to the 40% of the one person that was deceased. There’s still no word on where the other 60% of him, her or xer is, but hopefully that 60% is doing well. --->READ MORE HERE

The skyrocketing use of disposable face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic has generated a monumental amount of waste that threatens to harm the environment.
Face masks worn by countless people worldwide for months could have serious, underappreciated consequences for the planet’s health. As disposable masks are thrown out, the waste can release microplastics and chemicals, polluting the land and water.
This environmental warning comes from a new study led by Coventry University that looked at how many microplastics and chemical additives can be released from different types of temporary facepieces. Dr. Anna Bogush and Dr. Ivan Kourtchev from the university’s Research Centre for Agroecology, Water, and Resilience examined what would happen to unused masks left in glass beakers for 24 hours with ultra-pure water.
After filtering and analyzing the content, it was discovered that masks released microplastic particles and chemical additives. This suggests that even before the masks are used, these pollutants exist in the products from the manufacturing process.
Compared to standard surgical masks, the disposable, filtering facepieces released up to four times more microplastic particles. Notably, most particles were tiny, less than 100 micrometers in size, and made of polypropylene. --->READ MORE HEREFollow links below to relevant/related stories and resources:
