To clarify, the AAP’s recommendation was not just stupid and silly, it was a knowing, deliberate lie - they wiped their own website of the pages they had extolling the importance of facial recognition/seeing smiling faces for baby’s development. Mens rea!!
See the proof at the end of this old post, at update 1:
I’m pretty sure there has also been a recent increase in speech delay among children that I read about in a recent pediatric publication. This pediatrician is shocked by this revelation. ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED 🙄. I was taught in residency the importance of seeing faces in development of speech, as well as learning to interpret emotions, especially in the first few years of life. And the idea that any child would wear a mask appropriately for an entire school day was ludicrous to begin with. The number of kids who I saw with snot draining down their poor little faces behind their masks was disheartening. THIS WAS SO WRONG.
It’s all about $ - AGAIN! The manufacturers are taking lessons from pharma and cashing in. We are all going to get Covid again, and again. We can do universal precautions and do the best we can to avoid it - but we are all in this together. I’d hold my breath to see how long it is before the “next wave” shows up...(wonder which MSM propaganda station will start the narrative?) but I’ll just breathe because it’ll be that fast. I can only imagine what clinicians 100 years from now will be saying...”Did they learn nothing from the SPANISH Flu???”
The CDC and AAP have decided that saving face is more important than providing truthful guidance that masking a toddler for an endemic virus is harmful.
Yes, I agree. These authority figures are so invested in circulating this false information they can't "row back". It might mean some of their other claims are also misleading. The benefits and harms of the vaccine could be the next "domino".
What I really can’t comprehend are the people who are still masking their young children but not wearing masks themselves. 🤯 What do they think they are accomplishing?
My daughters dance at a studio with a family who still insists that their two children (ages 11 and 14) continually mask, even during strenuous dance rehearsals. It is well past the point of being ridiculous; it seems heartbreaking and criminal.
It needs to be spoken by Dr. Merlin or it will not be real. And Dr. Merlin retired. These kids will be masked for years, and the hard core maskers will be buried with their masks on. A law against masking will need to be passed to get them to stop, and many would probably rather go to jail than stop "protecting" themselves.
There's more cognitive rot than one can shake a stick at these days, even in the world of science.
That said, what about the study in Denmark showing Pfizer's worst batch of vaccine had 1 in 20 reported adverse reactions? Are these researchers quacks or is the data being completely ignored about how bad the vaccines were?
Cognitive rot- lol. I’ve been collecting terms lately. That’s a good one. Menticide is another one I like. I read your article and Robert Malone’s Sunday Strip this morning. He had this sentence:
“The UN/WEF is driving towards a new world order based around fascism (corporatism) and socialism (a global command economy).”
Talk about The Great Reset in a nutshell.
I see a connection:
How and why masking is used to move the world (it was done to the entire world) toward fascism/corporatism and communism.
I’m sure you don’t want to think on that, but if you did, just hypothetical- why would turning people into faceless cogs be helpful toward achieving a future dystopian 1984? Ok fine, don’t think on that.
At first, I masked my kids (as it was the law in our state and frankly the evidence was hard to sift through). Now, I know better. Not once have they warn another mask (even on a plane). IF for some reason there was an illness outbreak at their school and we were seeing someone Immunocompromised, then maybe we might all wear one, but at some point I hope people (and organizations) identify the error of their ways, adding more trust, where it is greatly needed.
How do we make this happen? I was so disappointed with the American Speech and Hearing Association when I reached out directly to them numerous times during and after what seemed like the end of the pandemic and they refused to change their messaging and went along with the AAP and CDC. Miraculously in May, once it was no longer declared an emergency, their website removed the false claim “A well-fitting high quality face mask reduces the chance of contracting COVID-19, as well as spreading COVID-19 infection to others.” Kids and teachers still wear masks in school and it needs to end!

Now you know why my substack motto is AAP Delenda Est!
Thank you for bringing this to light. That's criminal.

It’s also a quasi- religious fetish.

I often wonder what the world would have been like if Trump had said "let's lock down and mask kids. And everyone must take the vax"
Many lives and $trillions saved no doubt.
Tell it like it is Vinay! Masking kids was always ridiculous and useless!
These are uninformed , conforming and fearful people ... bad combinations.

This post is like a palate cleanser after listening to last week’s This American Life episode (“The Florida Experiment”).
