'A well-sealed FFP2/3 [N95/N99] mask is the single greatest tool humankind has come up with to prevent initial infection, further spread and mutations - as well as an endless pandemic.'

I hadn't realised that the 'Vax-Only and Nothing Else' crew were a thing; or that they are so incredibly toxic & wrong-headed; and as dangerous as any of the other extremist Covid bands.

2) Since that video premiered last year, I would add that we should now use PREMIUM high filtration KN95 / KF94 / FFP2 masks or better. Many countries in Europe already had mandated these premium masks in Jan 2021 already. We should too, especially when many others don’t mask.

It is nothing short of miraculous that our son is alive. He was born in 2005 w/ what his specialist calls “the most severe birth disorder compatible with life”-a 1 in 400,000 condition. Within that, his variables place him in the 5th percentile. 2/
It is a tragedy of our age my son was displaced from his birth family because they lacked access to adequate health care for his disability. The care facility that received him made his name a prayer, in case he died on the drive to the hospital.

I am certain that no one wants children to be off school unnecessarily but if cases in school children spiral out of control once more, education will almost certainly be disrupted, again affecting children in the most deprived areas the most.
