Prolonged Textile Face Mask Use May Lead to Respiratory Illnesses Like Those Experienced by Textile Workers in The Third World
Reason #64 that Face Masks Hurt Kids
Dear Reader,
The wearing of a face mask to protect against a respiratory virus is an act of grand deceit. It is a behavior that defies research on the topic. Wearing a face mask, as this article (one of many) points to — is unsafe to do and is ineffective.
Until the narrative around mandatory masking has changed, each day by 6am Eastern, I will both post here and send out a science-based reason why no one should wear a face mask.
I ask that you help me circulate these pieces to those around you who you believe could most benefit from them. It is important not to remain silent on this topic. These are important discussions to be having with friends, family members, business owners, healthcare practitioners, public servants, and others in the community.

Mask wearing may cause problems throughout the respiratory system, beyond fibrosis of the lungs.
Kai Kisielinski, in an April 20, 2021, article entitled “Is a Mask That Covers the Mouth and Nose Free from Undesirable Side Effects in Everyday Use and Free of Potential Hazards?” describes this process and consequences further:1
“The WHO sees the integration of individual companies and communities that produce their own fabric masks as a potential social and economic benefit. Due to the global shortage of surgical masks and personal protective equipment, it sees this as a source of income and points out that the reuse of fabric masks can reduce costs and waste and contribute to sustainability.”2
This effort to institutionalize the unsafe and ineffective mask into existing societal and economic structures is troubling. Rather than acknowledging face masks as unsafe and ineffective and doing away with them, the opposite is being done. The truest way to reduce face mask costs and face mask waste is not to switch to cloth face masks, but to eliminate all face mask mandates and to use the available science to caution people against wearing the unsafe and ineffective face masks.
Kisielinski continues, digging into the toxins contained in the unsafe and ineffective face masks:
“In addition to the question of certification procedures for such fabric masks, it should also be mentioned that due to the extensive mask obligation, textile (artificial) substances in the form of micro- and nanoparticles, some of which cannot be degraded in the body, are chronically absorbed into the body through inhalation to an unusual extent. In the case of medical masks, disposable polymers such as polypropylene, polyurethane, polyacrylonitrile, polystyrene, polycarbonate, polyethylene and polyester should be mentioned.3 Ear, nose, and throat (ENT) physicians have already been able to detect such particles in the nasal mucosa of mask wearers with mucosal reactions in the sense of a foreign body reaction with rhinitis.4 In the case of community masks, other substances from the textile industry are likely to be added to those mentioned above. The body will try to absorb these substances through macrophages and scavenger cells in the respiratory tract and alveoli as part of a foreign body reaction, whereby toxin release and corresponding local and generalized reactions may occur in an unsuccessful attempt to break them down.5 Extensive respiratory protection in permanent long-term use (24/7), at least from a theoretical point of view, also potentially carries the risk of leading to a mask-related pulmonary6 or even generalized disorder, as is already known from textile workers chronically exposed to organic dusts in the Third World (byssinosis).”5
It has long been understood that third world textile workers have grown ill as a result of their exposure to fibers in their workspace. The same used to take place in developed nations. Similar fibers from face masks end up in the lungs of those who wear them. That is guaranteed to be harmful to some wearers. How harmful that is and how many are harmed has not yet been determined.
Even if face mask wearing were discontinued today, in fifteen or twenty years, we would finally begin to see the long-term effects of what happened when so many people inhaled so many fibers from face masks deep into their respiratory tract for a two-year period of time.
Every time you put on a face mask, you make yourself a lab rat in that experiment. Every time you put your child in a face mask, you make your child one of Dr. Fauci’s beagle puppies in this experiment. We do not know how many will be harmed in this experiment. Some are certain to be. How little you value your child’s wellbeing and your role of trust as a parent if you are allowing your child to be a subject in such a nonsensical experiment. We already know face masks are not safe and are not effective.
No further testing needs to be done. The data is all there for those who are willing to have a look. Your child deserves better than to be a subject in an experiment.

The bestselling book "Face Masks In One Lesson" by Allan Stevo describes how to never wear a face mask again. The follow-up to the book, "Face Masks Hurt Kids," describes why to never wear a face mask again. We must defeat the awful, narrative around the mandates.
Examples of how face masks hurt kids will be posted to the Lockdown Land Substack each morning by 6am Eastern until the narrative around this ineffective and harmful medical intervention has shifted. Face masks are, in fact, not just harmful to children. Face masks are harmful to everyone. Thank you so much for helping me circulate this research.
