Kansas was used for comparison because the state allowed each of its 105 counties to decide whether or not to implement mask mandates, with 81 counties deciding against the measure.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe most important finding from this study is that contrary to the accepted thought that fewer people are dying because infection rates are reduced by masks, this was not the case,\u201d summarized the paper.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cResults from this study strongly suggest that mask mandates actually caused about 1.5 times the number of deaths or \u223c50% more deaths compared to no mask mandates.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The study also posited a potential reason for the disparity in risk ratio (RR) for dying from COVID-19:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cA rationale for the increased RR by mandating masks is probably that virions that enter or those coughed out in droplets are retained in the facemask tissue, and after quick evaporation of the droplets, hypercondensed droplets or pure virions (virions not inside a droplet) are re-inhaled from a very short distance during inspiration.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Dubbed the \u201cFoegen effect,\u201d the theory suggests that COVID-19 \u201cvirions spread (because of their smaller size) deeper into the respiratory tract.\u201d<\/p>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/thenationalpulse.com\/2022\/05\/19\/wuhan-lab-journal-publishes-gain-of-function-research\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"u6a8fc3f2fbcdf4537ece8fe377b2d559\"><\/p>\n<style scoped> .u6a8fc3f2fbcdf4537ece8fe377b2d559 { padding:0px; margin: 0; padding-top:1em!important; padding-bottom:1em!important; width:100%; display: block; font-weight:bold; background-color:#eaeaea; border:0!important; border-left:4px solid #34495E!important; box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -moz-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -o-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); -webkit-box-shadow: 0 1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.17); text-decoration:none; } .u6a8fc3f2fbcdf4537ece8fe377b2d559:active, .u6a8fc3f2fbcdf4537ece8fe377b2d559:hover { opacity: 1; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; text-decoration:none; } .u6a8fc3f2fbcdf4537ece8fe377b2d559 { transition: background-color 250ms; webkit-transition: background-color 250ms; opacity: 0.95; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; } .u6a8fc3f2fbcdf4537ece8fe377b2d559 .ctaText { font-weight:bold; color:#C0392B; text-decoration:none; font-size: 16px; } .u6a8fc3f2fbcdf4537ece8fe377b2d559 .postTitle { color:#000000; text-decoration: underline!important; font-size: 16px; } .u6a8fc3f2fbcdf4537ece8fe377b2d559:hover .postTitle { text-decoration: underline!important; } <\/style>\n<div><span class=\"ctaText\">MUST READ:<\/span>\u00a0 <span class=\"postTitle\">Wuhan Lab Publishes Study Manipulating H7N9 Virus To Be More Lethal.<\/span><\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThey bypass the bronchi and are inhaled deep into the alveoli, where they can cause pneumonia instead of bronchitis, which would be typical of a virus infection.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese findings suggest that mask use might pose a yet unknown threat to the user instead of protecting them, making mask mandates a debatable epidemiologic intervention,\u201d concludes the paper.<\/p>\n<p>The study follows <a href=\"https:\/\/thenationalpulse.com\/2022\/05\/16\/study-finds-correlation-between-mask-compliance-and-covid-deaths\/\">another<\/a> recently published analysis of international data showing the same relationship between COVID-19 and masks.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3\">\n<p><\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-5\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/app.memberful.com\/join\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">  <\/a>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mask mandates caused higher COVID-19 death rates, according to the bombshell claims made in a new medical journal report analyzing fatality rates across the state of Kansas.
