Australian Dep. of Health - Mask Efficacy Questioning (ALARMING)

2 years ago
621

Today I called the clinical department of the National Coronavirus Helpline (Department of Health) in hopes they could answer some very simple questions about what evidence there is to support the mask mandates we are currently experiencing in Australia.

They couldn't answer any of my questions.

They advised me they could only read the information they've been given to read within their 'portal' - and nothing else.

My questions were simple:

Given the extensive studies (referenced below) over the last 10 years that suggest surgical masks / N95 respirators do nothing to protect against influenza-like respiratory infections and viral infections - how and why are these mask mandates being imposed on the public justified?

How is federal legislation being ignored (Biosecurity Act - Sections: 34, 60, 61, 87, 88, 95 and 477) when protected by Section 109 of our very Constitution?

No answers were given. Ridiculous. Our DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH had no evidence on hand to support any of the claims outlined in their scripted responses to me.

Enough is enough. Share the hell out of this.

Call them and ask them the same questions. They must be held accountable.

More videos on the way.
