This basically proves masks, when used for hours at a time, are mini pathogen incubators. The heat and moisture help the infectious organisms we normally breath in small amounts to be fruitful and multiply. I am supprised this hasent developed some new diseases yet or it has and they just have not identified them yet. All those little face mounted biology labs everywhere.
Exactly, similar to an agar petri-dish.
It allows for a perfect environment for normally occurring pathogens to multiply to possibly unhealthy ppm. Our bodies immune systems can normally handle naturally occurring levels, however add masks in and now it's not a normal situation.
It’s not a “perfect” environment for pathogen growth. All those non-viral pathogens listed need more than just a warm moist environment to grow. They need a source of nutrients. When they are in your body, they scavenge your cells to provide those nutrients. That’s one of the reasons they can do damage to you when you are infected. When they are on an agar plate, it is the agar that provides those nutrients. Medical masks are made of polypropylene fibers, which is definitely not a nutrient.

So I guess this means those kids have been in some pretty nasty surroundings.
It isn't like all those pathogens just popped into existence because of the masks.

Ya know you can wash them? My kids either wore disposable ones and threw them away after school, or reusable ones that were washed after each use.

RIP all of the people who have always had to wear masks while they work. It's all the sudden dangerous. We should henceforth call off all surgeries, paint jobs, drywall projects, wood floor resurfacing, etc...edit on 16-6-2021 by LordAhriman because: (no reason given)

Just turn it inside out for another 2 hours.
I mean. Taking into account the levels of bacteria found, when it's facing your mouth, probably safer to wear the outside inside and the inside outside.
PS: just trying out this whole "new-think" type thing going on these days that used to be labelled "stupidity".

Then how does this all explain why the 2020-2021 flu season was practically non-existent? Certainly, we should all be sick as dogs for putting on these "petri dishes." But that apparently didn't happen. What's the most crazy explanation?
