Doctors and Nurses: Wearing Masks Is Harmful in Several Ways! explains that many medical professionals are warning that wearing a mask is not only not necessary and not helpful – it can be very harmful in a number of ways. In Blaylock: Face Masks Pose Serious Risks To The Healthy, Dr. Russell Blaylock says that not only do face masks fail to protect the healthy from getting sick, but they also create serious health risks to the wearer.
Cardiac nurse Nica Bueno explains why wearing a mask is highly ineffective against viruses. In addition, she warns that in wearing a mask, you are not getting fresh air and are hurting your body by breathing in your own carbon dioxide and your own bacteria. She asks “Why are we working against our immune system instead of for our immune system?” If you are not sick, you should not wear a face mask.
Ironically, the article points out:
Wearing a mask restricts your oxygen intake – making you more subject to infections! The importance of these findings is that a drop in oxygen levels (hypoxia) is associated with an impairment in immunity. Studies have shown that hypoxia can inhibit the type of main immune cells used to fight viral infections….This sets the stage for contracting any infection, including COVID-19 and making the consequences of that infection much graver. In essence, your mask may very well put you at an increased risk of infections and if so, having a much worse outcome.
The article warns:
There is another danger to wearing these masks on a daily basis, especially if worn for several hours. When a person is infected with a respiratory virus, they will expel some of the virus with each breath. If they are wearing a mask, especially an N95 mask or other tightly fitting mask, they will be constantly rebreathing the viruses, raising the concentration of the virus in the lungs and the nasal passages….It gets even more frightening. Newer evidence suggests that in some cases the virus can enter the brain. In most instances it enters the brain by way of the olfactory nerves (smell nerves), which connect directly with the area of the brain dealing with recent memory and memory consolidation. By wearing a mask, the exhaled viruses will not be able to escape and will concentrate in the nasal passages, enter the olfactory nerves and travel into the brain.”
Wearing a Mask is “Horribly Immune Suppressive for Healthy People”
Wear Your Face Mask And Savor Your CO2 Breath warns:
When a healthy person wears a face mask, they continuously re-rebreathe a portion of the CO2 that comes out of their lungs. Of course, there are many different types of masks that vary in such CO2 concentration, but the principal remains the same. Breathing air that is too rich in CO2 has its own negative health effects!
The article includes a video interview by Robyn Openshaw with Judy Mikovits, Ph.D, a top US virologist. Dr. Mikovits says, “We have to breathe oxygen. We can’t breathe back in our own toxic air. That’s why we exhale.” She says that wearing a mask is “horribly immune suppressive for healthy people. You’re not getting fresh air….You’re activating endogenous viruses”. She says that because a mask is warm and wet, you are making yourself sick when you wear it.
In addition, she points out that wearing a mask is abnormal and uncomfortable. She says “These are all things that are immune draining, not immune boosting….It makes no sense. You are not preventing infection. You’re not preventing spread.” Dr. Mikovits explains that you are not coughing any viruses – and you certainly are not coughing them six feet! So, the social distancing rules make no more sense than the requirements to wear masks! Dr. Mikovits advises: “If you’re healthy, take off the mask. Go outside….This is what we do in any flu season.”
Robin also interviewed Dr. Rashid Buttar, and Emergency Room MD and asked him “Is wearing a mask good for us in any way? Is wearing a mask keeping us from getting a virus?” Dr. Buttar warns, “Wearing a mask is making everything worse! Remember that we breathe in oxygen. When you wear a mask, you are reducing the flow of oxygen.” Dr. Buttar explains that the reduced oxygen suppresses your immune system — which could make you more vulnerable to opportunistic infections!
So, the COVID-19 health policies are wildly out of sync with common sense and best medical practices.
Can You Be Forced To Wear a Mask at Work?
In Do Masks Even Work? Can You Be Forced To Wear One? Dr. Kaufman Weighs In reporter Spiro Skouras interviewed Dr. Andrew Kaufman. The video points out:
We are beginning to see more and more mask mandates which raises many questions. Does wearing a mask offer protection from the virus? Does wearing a mask for extended periods pose any risk to your health? Can the government or employers make you wear a mask? In this interview, Spiro is joined by Dr. Andrew Kaufman to discuss these issues. Are we being conditioned to accept other mandates? If they can make you wear a mask, what else will they make you do? Mandatory testing? Mandatory vaccination?
Dr. Kaufman went to MIT undergrad where he got his degree in molecular biology. He worked for the Health Department in a CDC position collecting epidemiological data for AIDS cases. Then he went to school to become a physician and joined the faculty at the Medical University of South Carolina where he worked in hematology and oncology for two years. He got his MD there and did his psychiatric residency at Duke. His Fellowship in Forensic Psychiatry was done at the SUNY Medical School in upstate New York. He joined the faculty there where he ran a research program in forensic psychiatry.
The video shows why masks provide zero protection for others from an “asymptomatic carrier of the virus”. The video cites The New England Journal of Medicine which shows masks are not helpful. Dr. Kaufman refused to wear a mask as a psychiatrist because it inhibited communication and was fired for that. He took a risk in doing so because he has a family to support and didn’t have an immediate backup plan. However, he knew how important it was to see a person’s full face and for patients to see his when personal information was being shared. Dr. Kaufman says that he sees NO reason to wear a mask, but he sees a variety of health problems that wearing a mask can cause. He says it’s unsafe to wear a mask.
Dr. Kaufman points out that there are many studies that show that wearing masks increases the risk of illness. He points out that wearing a mask decreases the amount of oxygen in your blood. Dr. Kaufman says that wearing a mask also violates OSHA’s safety standards. He says people may be able to point out the Occupational Safety and Health Administration standards to get an exemption if their work requires them to wear a COVID-19 mask. He recommends that people tell their employer that they would like the job to call the OSHA Compliance Officer. See further below for information on OSHA’s mask policies.
Dr. Kaufman says there is a time when you have to take a risk and stand up for yourself. He says, “In my estimation, this is the time. It’s not time to wait. It’s time to stand up because, as you can see, more and more of our freedoms are being taken away. If we don’t stand up, it’s just going to continue.” Spiro said his father quit his job when told he had to wear a mask. Dr. Kaufman refers to Peggy Hall’s videos below.
OSHA’s Confusing Position on Masks
Understanding Safe Oxygen Levels as Outlined by OSHA in Confined Spaces explains: “Based on OSHA guidelines, a confined space is considered to have safe oxygen levels if readings are between 20.8-21 percent, while a space with readings of less than 19.5 percent are considered to be oxygen deficient.” Dr. Kaufman says that tests show that masks reduce a person’s oxygen intake below 19.5% — creating an oxygen-deficient environment. As one person pointed out, wearing a mask feels like you are suffocating yourself! Doing that is not healthy – especially for 40 hours a week for months, and particularly if your job requires physical labor.
Dr. Kaufman recommends that if people are required to wear a mask at work that they cite the rules of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration on masks. Dr. Kaufman cited the videos by Peggy Hall. OSHA Says Masks Don’t Work — And Violate OSHA Oxygen Levels includes a video by Peggy Hall, founder of The Healthy American site which has the information shown below under its “Masks” page. Her Videos page links to many informative videos. The site also has an OSHA page.
However, OSHA’s position on masks is far from clear. So, it’s understandable if employers and stores are confused on the requirements. What that means is that it may be difficult to rely on the OSHA rules to get an exemption from mask requirements at work.
OSHA Publishes FAQs on Masks in the Workplace says: “The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has published a series of frequently asked questions about the use of masks in the workplace. ‘As our economy reopens for business, millions of Americans will be wearing masks in their workplace for the first time,’ said principal deputy secretary for occupational safety and health Loren Sweatt. ‘OSHA is ready to help workers and employers understand how to properly use masks so they can stay safe and healthy in the workplace,’ Sweatt said. The new guidance outlines the differences between cloth face coverings, surgical masks, and respirators. It further reminds employers not to use surgical masks or cloth face coverings when respirators are needed.”
If you don’t want to wear a mask as work but are forced to do so, you may have the option of wearing one that does not block your intake of oxygen – as shown below. People should not be forced to deprive themselves of oxygen!
Your Oxygen Level With a Mask Is Below OSHA Requirement
A recent video by Jeff Berwick includes a clip starting around 7 minutes which explains why people who wear masks all day may get headaches. The levels of oxygen with and without a mask are measured by an OSHA-approved air quality iBrid™ monitor which tests for oxygen levels, hazardous gas levels, etc. The clip says that OSHA requires an oxygen level of 19.5% for a place to be safe to work in.
When the tester put the sampling tube from the air quality monitor at the corner of his mouth to measure his oxygen level without a mask, the monitor registered an oxygen level of 20.5% to 20.6%. When the tester put on a mask and put the tube at the corner of his mouth, the monitor sounded an alarm indicating the oxygen level was dangerously low. The monitor registered an oxygen level with the mask at 17.4%. Note that he had been wearing the mask for about a minute. The tester pointed out that the oxygen deprivation will be worse for people who are exerting themselves – i.e. walking or working.
Mask Exemption Cards Are Fake
Have you seen this face mask exemption card? It’s fake, Department of Justice says reports,
The cards declare that the holder is “exempt” from mask requirements, falsely citing both the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Department of Justice….The Department of Justice has confirmed that one of the latest trends in the movement to reject face-covering requirements is not backed by the government, despite claims to the contrary. The trend in question, started by anti-mask group the Freedom to Breathe Agency, is a card that claims the holder is “exempt” from wearing a mask, citing the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). However, the official government website of the ADA recently announced that these cards are, in fact, “fraudulent.”
Cancer Thrives in Low Oxygen Environments
We all have cancer cells in our bodies. However, as long as our cells have sufficient oxygen, the cancer cannot proliferate. Dr. Otto Warburg won the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1931 for his discovery that cancer cannot survive in an oxygenated environment. He was nominated for the award 47 times.
Dr. Warburg was a co-author of The Metabolism of Tumours: Original Text (Understand Cancer Series Book 1). Amazon says:
In this book Dr. Warburg, MD, PhD, and distinguished scientists demonstrate, through empirical evidence that: “Cancer, above all other diseases, has countless secondary causes. But, even for cancer, there is only one prime cause. Summarized in a few words, the prime cause of cancer is the replacement of the respiration of oxygen in normal body cells by fermentation of sugar.”
Dr. Warburg co-authored The Prime Cause of Cancer (Understand Cancer Series Book 2). Amazon says:
All normal body cells meet their energy needs by respiration of oxygen, whereas cancer cells meet their energy needs in great part by fermentation…. From the standpoint of the physics and chemistry of life this difference between normal and cancer cells is so great that one can scarcely picture a greater difference. Oxygen gas, the donor of energy in plants and animals is dethroned in the cancer cells and replaced by an energy yielding reaction of the lowest living forms, namely, a fermentation of glucose.
Amazon says of The Metabolism of Tumours (Understand Cancer Book 5) co-authored by Dr. Warburg:
If a lowered oxygen pressure during cell growth may cause cancer, or, more generally, if any inhibition of respiration during growth may cause cancer, then a next problem is to show why reduced respiration induces cancer. Since we already know that with a lowering of respiration fermentation results, we can re- express our question: Why does cancer result if oxygen-respiration is replaced by fermentation?… In any case, during the cancer development the oxygen-respiration always falls, fermentation appears, and the highly differentiated cells are transformed to fermenting anaerobes, which have lost all their body functions and retain only the now useless property of growth. Thus, when respiration disappears, life does not disappear, but the meaning of life disappears, and what remains are growing machines that destroy the body in which they grow.
As masks significantly lower the body’s oxygen content, cancer cells may find just the environment that allows them to proliferate. So, will people wearing masks many hours a day for months experience an increase in cancer? If so, the rise in cancer will probably never be linked to their wearing masks. How could any sane “health” policy encourage people to suffocate themselves and increase their risk of cancer for what is widely acknowledge now to be just a seasonal flu? The OSHA oxygen requirement is intended to keep governmental and work place polices from forcing people to harm themselves!
Oxygenated Cells Are Cancer Free
In 1952, Dr. Johanna Budwig based her Budwig Protocol on the Nobel Prize-winning discovery of Dr. Warburg that cancer cannot survive in an oxygenated environment.
Budwig Protocol: Cancer is weak, vulnerable and easily curable Dr. Budwig shows us how? says:
Johanna Budwig (1908-2003) who was nominated for the Nobel Prize seven times was one of Germany’s leading scientists of the 20th Century, a biochemist and Cancer specialist with a special interest in essential fats. Otto Warburg proved that prime cause of cancer oxygen-deficiency in the cells. In absence of oxygen, cells ferment glucose to produce energy, lactic acid is formed as a byproduct of fermentation. He postulated that sulfur containing protein and some unknown fat is required to attract oxygen in the cell.
Dr. Budwig found the “unknown fat” needed to oxygenate the cells!
This way Dr. Budwig had found a cure for cancer. It was a great victory and first milestone in the battle against cancer. Her treatment protocol is based on the consumption of flax seed oil with low fat cottage cheese, raw organic diet, mild exercise, and the healing powers of the sun. She treated approx. 2500 cancer patients during a 50 year period with this protocol till her death with over 90% documented success. She was nominated 7 times for Nobel Prize but with a condition that she will use chemotherapy and radiotherapy with her protocol. They did not want to collapse the 200 billion business over night. She always refused to support the damaging chemo and radio for the sake of humanity.
The Budwig Protocol requires the use of Barlean’s Flaxseed Oil and low-fat organic cottage cheese. Dr. Budwig did not trust any other flaxseed oil. In 2004 when I was diagnosed with Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS), a surgeon warned that unless I had a lumpectomy and possibly chemotherapy and radiation, the cancer would inevitably spread to all my organs, shut them down and kill me.
Instead, I used Dr. Budwig’s Protocol with chopped organic apples and an organic trailmix to add flavor. It completely erased the tumor in about five months – as confirmed by a mammogram. I don’t advocate this approach for others because a German doctor told me that she has never seen it work for anyone else. My acupuncturist said it may have worked for me because I had been a vegetarian for so many years and had gone organic in 2000.
However, this experience shows the importance of oxygen for the cells in preventing/treating cancer. It also underscores the grave danger of depriving the cells of oxygen by wearing masks.
Healthier Masks?
Blaylock: Face Masks Pose Serious Risks To The Healthy points out:
It is evident from this review that there is insufficient evidence that wearing a mask of any kind can have a significant impact in preventing the spread of this virus.….One should not attack and insult those who have chosen not to wear a mask, as these studies suggest that is the wise choice to make.
People should not be forced to harm themselves! As states re-open, fewer people may have to wear masks. However, people required by their jobs, cities, or states to wear masks may find the 2 Pack All-Round Protection Hat with Clear Wide Visor Lightweight Transparent Shield with Adjustable Elastic Band below on the left is a better option because it doesn’t restrict breathing or the oxygen intake. However, I got a headache when I put this mask on for about 30 seconds! A staff member at my grocery store found that model gave him a headache because it’s too tight. So, he uses the 2 Pack All-Round Protection Cap with Clear Wide Visor Spitting Lightweight Transparent Shield with Adjustable Elastic Band which has a black band. He wears that Face Shield 10 hours a day and says it is very comfortable.
Note: The second Face Shield also arrived with a white band! The foam in the first Face Shield is about 1.5” and in the second is about 1”. Perhaps that’s why I found the second mask more comfortable.
The following articles show the enormous disconnect between science and the COVID-19 “health” policies that have destroyed the economy, put over 4 million Americans out of work, and have led to a record number of suicides. All of this over-reaction is for what is widely acknowledged now to be just a seasonal flu – and one that has killed fewer people than the flu in 2017! What’s really going on and why?

Masks Convey Many Negative Messages
Epidemiologist Dr. Knut Wittkowski explains that contact tracing is possible for sexually transmitted diseases because most people know whom they have had sex with recently. However, it is not possible for a flu because a person may come in contact with hundreds of people — few of whom can be identified. Yet, plans for contact tracing continue in complete disregard of science! Are You One Handshake Away From An Endless Lockdown? discusses the dangers of contact tracing.
In Perspectives on the Pandemic | Professor Knut Wittkowski | Episode 2, Dr. Wittkowski explains that we are experiencing horrific results of bad health policies! Lockdown has severe consequences. Since people can get immunity from a flu naturally, a vaccine is not necessary! Yet, Bill Gates is saying that we cannot fully go back to normal until everyone gets a rushed vaccine – one from which he will profit massively and which is a violation of the Nuremberg Code!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGC5sGdz4kg
Dr. Andrew Kaufman Responds To Reuters Fact Check on COVID-19 Vaccine Genetically Modifying Humans shows the many dangers of the vaccine – including that it may sterilize people. People who wear masks in public are signally their support of the unscientific and harmful COVID-19 policies that are destroying America. If everyone stopped wearing masks in public now, it would signal that Americans do not support the lockdown, contact tracing, or a mandatory vaccine.
Dr. Wittkowski says Americans are too docile and if people don’t stand up for their constitutional rights now, we will lose those freedoms forever. He says Americans should be resisting and should hold politicians responsible for their misguided policies that have shut the schools, restaurants, other businesses, and cost Americans so much in so many ways – all for nothing. NOW is the time to stand up!

COVID-19 Policies Hide Agenda of Total Control
ARCHITECTING THE BEAST SYSTEM: AI Control of Food Supply is a video by the Ice Age Farmer which explains that the COVID-19 policies serve as a distraction to allow the government to implement a system of total control using 5G, the blockchain, the Internet of Things (IoT), and Artificial Intelligence to track EVERYTHING and EVERYONE. For example, COVID-19 has served as an excuse for the government to take over our food supply (food sovereignty). In addition to showing how our Food Supply Chain was taken over, the video discusses the Defense Supply Chain and the Civilian Supply Chain.
The video explains
Forces are working to take total control of every drop of oil extracted from the ground, every fish caught from the sea, and every last bean harvested. It requires an immense technical infrastructure comprising 5G, blockchain, and Artificial Intelligence. This infrastructure has been built and is now being deployed, and we must understand that it is — in the very words of the Department of Defense — an AI weapons system. And that system is going live NOW.
FOOD CRISIS: “Things Are About to Get Much Worse”, DEFUND MEAT: The New Plan to End Meat Through Divestment, and Bill Gates: Test Tube Meat, Mandatory Vaccinations & Real Time Global Surveillance From Space discuss the control of our food system. The Ice Age Farmer encourages people to grow their own food. Grow Organic Food Easily At Home Now! provides several easy ways to grow food at home even for people who don’t have land.
Technocracy Rising: The Trojan Horse of Global Transformation by Patrick Wood says that technocrats have been working for decades to track and have COMPLETE control over everything and everyone. It points out that Bill Gates is a quintessential technocrat. That’s why his vaccine will include a digital ID to track everyone 24×7. That’s the real reason for “contact tracing” which is not possible with a flu.
The COVID-19 “health” policies mask these plans while a system of TOTAL control is set up. This fits in with the UN’s New World Order shown on its NWO website. It’s the “new normal” we’ve heard so much about. What Is The Real Agenda Behind The Effort To Defund & Dismantle The Police? is a video interview with Rosa Koire, author of Behind the Green Mask: U.N. Agenda 21.
So, when people stop wearing masks that support the COVID-19 agenda, that is a huge step in the right direction. The next step is to become more informed about technocracy which is never discussed on TV or in the newspapers – yet has been a plan for many decades. Then learn about the UN’s NWO agenda. We are on the verge of losing our God-given freedoms protected by the US Constitution. It’s all being done under the guise of protecting us from a seasonal flu that has killed fewer people than the 1968 flu! See SHOCKING COMPARISON: COVID-19 VS. HONG KONG FLU. Don’t support the COVID-19 destructive policies blindly. Understand what they are hiding. Inform yourself and others.
UN’s New World Order Agenda
The Great Reset Plan Revealed: How COVID Ushers In The New World Order is a video by investigative reporter Spiro Skouras who says:
For months we have seen our way of life change dramatically. We have been told time and time again things will never be the same and we must accept the new normal. Now the social engineers have revealed their hand and have officially launched their solution to this crisis. The proposed solution is the Great Reset. In this report, we examine what exactly is the great reset and who is involved. We also explore what the Great Reset means for humanity as we face unprecedented times.
Fact Check: Is The United Nations New World Order Website Real? Is a follow-up video by Skouras.
New Rockefeller COVID-19 Action Plan & The UN’s NWO Website As The CDC Goes Door to Door is a video in which Skouras interview Helen Buyniski, a journalist for RT.
This Is #TheGreatReset. You Have Been Warned is a video by investigative reporters James Corbett and James Evan Pilato.
