Recent studies estimate that we use an astounding 129 billion face masks globally every month -- that is 3 million a minute. Most of them are disposable face masks made from plastic microfibers.

Billions of masks used in the US.

~100-150 million Covid-19 infections in the US.

Unfortunately there are no known benefits in terms of reducing Covid-19 infections in the US thus far.

129,000,000,000 is quite a lot of masks used every month.

Imagine if we all took the recent advice of Fauci et al and wore TWO or THREE masks for this entire charade. :eek:

i see them everywhere in chicago - ditched on sidewalks, park grass, public transportation. and like that graphic above says - they'll be washing up on the shores of remote islands a few years from now.

I think you would be even more shocked by the amount of medical waste produced from one simple surgical case

Forget about face masks and vaccines. Just let yourself be darker through photosynthesis for vitamin d. Oh and junk foods, as well as cigarettes, should be prohibited. People die from them every single day. :(

Liberals suddenly forgot about their plastic straws and masks for the protection of a virus with a 99.997% survival rate
