Stop Forcing People to Wear Masks Over COVID-19 Fears

An abundance of research shows masks offer little or no protection against infection from respiratory viruses, and some masks can actually increase one’s risk of infection.

A 2009 randomized clinical trial found that surgical masks offered no protection at all. A 2015 study concluded rates of infection were especially high in cloth masks, finding particle penetration in nearly 97 percent of them. A 2016 paper that analyzed six clinical studies found that N95 respirator masks fared no better than medical masks in preventing respiratory infection.

As recently as April 7, a paper analyzing data from 15 randomized trials concluded that “compared to no masks there was no reduction of influenza-like illness cases for influenza for masks in the general population, nor in healthcare workers."

At a 30-minute press conference held Friday morning February 4, 2022, Ottawa Police Chief Peter Sloly said the police will implement a new 'Surge & Contain' strategy. Sloly said the police and their intelligence partners will "target protesters and supporters of protesters who are funding and enabling unlawful and harmful activity by the protesters themselves." Financial, digital driver id, and insurance info will be used in future prosecutions, he said. "Our goal is to end the increasingly volatile and increasingly dangerous demonstration," Sloly said.
