As an audiologist who works with primarily adult patients, especially the elderly, masking has had a huge negative impact on communication. There are a few of my patients who (for whatever reason) will not wear hearing aids and masking makes it virtually impossible for them to communicate. They have withdrawn socially as well and I shutter to think what they miss especially at medical appointments (where they often are alone). Enough of the masking nonsense in a standard medical clinic. It needs to stop. The harm it is doing is significantly more than the protection it is supposed to be providing. Sadly, at least in my clinic, until the CDC says to stop, my bosses will continue the charade.
It’s so frustrating that healthcare, of all places, thinks it essential to continue masking. The fact masks have done nothing combined with harms, makes their use a net negative. Thanks for so eloquently highlighting one of the not often thought of harms: medical errors.
Hurting people and alienating us all from each other is the purpose of the masque mandates. The people in power hate humanity and hurt as many people as they can. These are not "well intentioned" people who are doing their best to find solutions.
Masques were never capable of stopping virus particles. They were always holding water vapour at the mouth and nose to breed bacteria. They always symbolise slavery and subservience. Not wearing them was a sign of freedom and independence.
You have to stop giving credit where it is not due. Anyone calling for masquing or mandating it is an abuser. Respond accordingly.
Going to the doctor (ENT) recently in London, I was required to wear a mask, himself, he was ready to go the the moon, full attire.... then another doctor for laryngitis was shocked when I told her I was not wearing a mask in the plane. I spoke at length with my neighbour a VERY good looking and SMART young man, we were both reading a "real" book. The medical profession is still with the mask obsession, and now it is up to us to say NO. I understand that older people are tired of fighting so why don't the families act up? Anyway, I know that most parents are not even able to fight for their own children as they proved in covid times: vax, mask, social distancing, and now the woke stupidity of LBGTQ alphabet soup, lack of courage, and desire for submission. Again, thank YOU
Hey there, Doc! So appreciate the work that you're doing. I was an activities director in a nursing home in the lockdown, and wrote a book about it. Is there a place I could send you a gift copy? I think it would resonate with you, and be encouragement to keep up your good work. 'Preciate you, sir!
