He is just another humbug like Wakefield That depends entire on which planet you are on. On Earth, JB Classen is a discredited anti-vaxxer. But on Planet Libtard, he is respected expert. Contrast that with Fauci. On Earth, he is the US government's top expert on infection disease. On Planet Libtard, he is a lying quack. Granted, Classen is a nutjob. But Fauci is a LYING top expert. Some of what he's said, he contradicted later, and not just because of growing knowledge, but because a particular lie was no longer useful. Do NOT assume that all non-leftists are anti-vaxxer idiots, just because a few are; you leftists have more than your share of fools and worse.

Since we were told that we must wear masks to stop the spread, then yes, that's what we believe. Or is it a lie that we should be wearing masks? Which is it? Why ask me? I am not an expert, unlike everyone on Planet Trumptard, who are all experts. You should go to the experts at CDC (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/about-face-coverings.html). They recommend that everybody wears masks, but NOT medical masks, which should be reserved for the medical community. "Do you wear a mask?" Yes, I do. I don't want to be like Trump who didn't wear a mask and got Covid, along with many in the White House.

Bingo. I'm not going to bother researching it, but I'm not aware of any contagious diseases or viruses where masks are prohibited because they're dangerous. They're worn in hospitals all the time around contagious patients. Patients with things like TB are kept in isolation and anyone entering the room wears a mask to protect themselves. When the patient must be moved out of isolation to go for tests that can't be performed in their room, THEY wear a mask to protect others. And now we're being told, like anyone with a brain already knew, that masks protect ourselves and protect others.

"Do you wear a mask?" "Yes, I do." In other words, you don't believe that masks are dangerous. Thanks.

Wearing medical masks is dangerous for the public because (1) it will reduce the supply for the medical community, (2) untrained people will not know how to follow proper mask protocol, and (3) it will give untrained people a false sense of security. All 3 factors will lead to further spread of Covid and represent a danger to EVERYONE.

If you can come up with a (reliable) source that's not being bought out by the hospitals, (1) is not true; if you can bother to find out how to use them properly and check the fit, you don't need in-person training, so (2) isn't necessarily true*, and (3) is true even if they work, if you suppose that they're magical, which nothing is, or have any sort of unrealistic expectations. You have a certain persistence at repeating propaganda, but clearly if you were supposed to think for yourself, Fauci would have told you so. :-) * edit: and there are people who even if not medical or first responders, HAVE had training in how to use masks that make an N95 look downright wimpy. Like most people with former military service. :-) Some of whom actually have one of those (but we'd have to wear a cloth mask over the exit vent, or someone might panic that it wasn't protecting them - which is silly, because if I were being THAT careful, I probably wouldn't be a carrier anyway). I don't wear it in public much, mostly because I don't want to use up all my filters, and because I don't want to scare people or have them wondering whether I was planning to join a riot somewhere.

Monmouth Co. Girl, 8, Confesses To Virtual Class She's Starving
It turns out the girl's mother lost her job when all the restaurants shut down in March. She hasn't been able to work since March and she does not qualify for unemployment or benefits,"
She's a victim of the lockdowns - but obey the government!

You have listed exceptions but there are always exceptions to everything. The govt says that drunk driving is dangerous but there are many people who drive drunk but haven't died (so far). The govt says that smoking causes cancer but there are many long term smokers who don't have cancer (so far). By your logic, the govt is lying about drunk driving and smoking.

If the federal government generates advice (that's either wrong or even not complete or nuanced) and some other level of government turns that advice into orders, commands, that there's NO justification for giving to free people REGARDLESS of whether it may reduce the body count, THAT'S A PROBLEM. And your problem is that you'd rather be obediently safe than dangerously free.

Luckily for me, that's your problem, not mine. I am in favor of banning drunk driving and smoking in enclosed spaces.

Luckily for me, that's your problem, not mine. I am in favor of banning drunk driving and smoking in enclosed spaces. I have no problem with banning drunk driving, although a wise driver would never assume any other driver on the road was sober, competent, sane, or even non-homicidal. I have no problem with banning smoking in SOME enclosed places; but it IS possible to have adequate ventilation or separately ventilated spaces, such that those in them are mostly choosing their risk. Let only smoking employees serve in those spaces, if that helps. A lot of the impetus behind the excesses of the ban is not so much safety as it is that the offended (yes, it stinks if you're not a smoker) got power under the guise of safety. Bottom line is that your safety (and that of your minor dependents, if any) is YOUR responsibility, not government's. They won't be around in time to PREVENT most of the drunk driver caused fatalities, etc. But I'd kind of prefer the wild west, where anyone might take a shot at you just because they feel like it. Not that I'd like to see more of that, but I'd prefer that level of freedom even if that was sometimes the consequence - we have those consequences now anyway, without the freedom. Even with zero legal private firearms, it'd be knives, bats, bricks, etc - you can't ban everything, and some percentage of people are just like that. So for goodness sake, LET ME SHOOT BACK!

She's a victim of the lockdowns - but obey the government! She's not a victim of the lockdowns. She's a victim of the inadequate safety net that the govt uses to support its poorest citizens. But the right wing doesn't want to pay more taxes to support starving kids.
