Rancourt quotes great evidence for why masks, including N95's, don't work for viruses.
He goes on to explain why things like flu are worse in winter, which, for me at least, is
radical stuff. Viral particles are de-activated (my word, I'm simplifying) by humidity in
the air. More humidity de-activates the virus more quickly.
This can get a little confusing, since, as most of us know, Relative Humidity is higher
in the winter. Shouldn't that mean that the viruses have a harder time in winter? No,
because it is ABSOLUTE Humidity that matters. In winter, at, say 5 degrees C, one
cubic metre of air might contain 6 grams of water when saturated, meaning at 100%
Relative Humidity. In the summer, at 20C, that same amount or air, even at only 70%
saturation (that is, 70% Relative Humidity) would hold twice as much water. This is
what knocks out the flu in summer.
Interestingly, after reading Rancourt's piece, I went to a pro-vaccine site in Autralasia
to read their article about masks. (Link below.) They report that N95 masks reduce
BACTERIAL infection by 62%, compared to no mask, while surgical masks make
almost no difference. And that is for bacteria, which are typically much bigger than
viruses. As this article points out, there is a problem throughout the medical community
in placing trust in surgical masks. Is this because medics are basically stupid, or has
the Shadow Government been playing up the mask nonsense for many years in
preparation for today?
