I consider it child abuse anytime I see a little one wearing a mask. Parenting escapes so many at the expense of our youth.

Future studies will show a host of tyrannical rules and mandates were applied strictly for political gain.

Until the gain became a detriment

———

Sen. Ron Johnson, ranking member of the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, sent a letter to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Rochelle Walensky on Tuesday demanding that she provide answers about a study the CDC has repeatedly cited to justify keeping kids masked at school. It turns out the study is riddled with errors, according to The Atlantic’s reporting.

In September of 2021, the CDC published the study on the “Association between K-12 School Mask Policies and School-Associated COVD-19 Outbreak,” which was conducted in two Arizona counties during July and August last year. And over the following two months, Walensky cited the study as justification for forcing schoolchildren to wear masks.

Why? Don’t like the message? Shouldn’t the CDC be held into account?

Each State or locality made their own decision as to have mask protocols in their school.

The CDC provided guidelines and recommendations based on the best information at the time.

The CDC has no power to "force" anyone to wear a mask.

Sen Johnson is among the dumbest in the government .

The OP article that is cited refers to a study and article done by The Atlantic. The research on the flawed CDC study that Johnson cites was exposed not the The Federalist, but by The Atlantic.

Leftists dont give a **** about facts, or science, or ANYTHING that doesnt mindlessly and blindly support the current administrations rhetoric.

I wonder if this was like the time he demanded that the President of Ukraine fire the corrupt prosecutor and then pretended to not remember that when the Hunter Biden matters because of interest to the Trump Panty Sniffers.

I read the linked article. I found this interesting from the article, "After The Atlantic published its article exposing the flaws, the study’s authors wrote a letter to rebut it ".

Unless I missed it there is no link to the rebuttal letter by the study's author. The question is why? Could it be they can't refute the rebuttal?

No. Reality is not like what you wonder.
