The Mask and Vax Generation
I was looking around my church before the service started, and I was amazed at how many children below the age of five were wearing masks. I kind of understand because I’m sure the parents don’t want to be responsible for their child getting coronavirus. But, the chances of those kids getting coronavirus is about one percent. Of course, you don’t want your child to be in the one percent. But, kids are generally asymptomatic and it is usually not worse than a cold. Back to my point though. As I looked around, I thought to myself this group is going to be the mask and vax generation.
A lot of the information I cite comes from an article by the American Institute for Economic Research (AIER).
The Facts About Masks
Let’s look at some of the facts about masking children.
- The CDC’s own February 2021 mask study reports that masking may impede breathing resulting in a variety of problems including acute anxiety attacks. These harms are more likely to occur in children, especially smaller children.
- Rebreathing exhaled air creates oxygen deficiency. And, that can cause drowsiness, dizziness, reduced ability to concentrate and reductions in cognitive function.
- Masking young children can weaken their immune system over time and make them more prone to sickness.
- During April to October 2020, emergency room visits in the United States linked to mental health problems in five to eleven year old children increased by twenty five percent.
- A German-wide registry found impairments caused by children wearing a mask include irritability (60%), headache (53%), difficulty concentrating (50%), less happiness (49%), reluctance to go to school/kindergarten (44%), malaise (42%), impaired learning (38%) and drowsiness or fatigue (37%).
- There is tremendous psychological damage to infants and children, with potential catastrophic impacts on cognitive development. This is even more critical to those within the autism spectrum who need to be able to recognize facial expressions as part of their ongoing development.
The Facts About Vaccines
Let’s look at some of the facts about vaccines in children.
- Children were not part of the vaccine research and also the very low risk to children raises very troubling questions of why. A move to vaccinate children based on the existing risk evidence has no basis in science and there is no net benefit.
- The clinical trials did not address long-term effects that, if serious, would be borne by children/adolescents for potentially decades.
And let’s look at some of the documented side effects of the vaccine. Vaccines have been known to cause:
- Myocarditis or pericarditis—inflammation of the heart or heart lining
- Blood clots
- Bell’s Palsy
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Your breasts to grow bigger
- Your menstrual cycle to be erratic
The Future
I can’t say exactly what the mask and vax generation will be like. But I can make some hypotheses based on the data I presented.
For the current generation of kids, the COVID-19 pandemic has emerged as the defining event of their young lives – a period marked by closures, cancellations, fear, and disruption. Their schooling has been disrupted. Their participation in sports has been disrupted. And the fear of their parents, society and television has them terrified when they don’t need to be.
They are likely going to be prone to anxiety and have reduced cognitive function and reduced ability to concentrate. This will be misdiagnosed as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and many will be on medications. They will likely be prone to sickness, so they will also be getting medications for that. This generation will likely have trouble interacting with others, and they will likely have issues trusting others.
The Unknown
And then there is the real unknown. What about all of the vaccine side effects? And how might they affect this generation?
Can the child develop heart problems? How about blood clotting? Can your child be more prone to cancer due to lymph node issues? Will girls reach puberty at a much younger age? Is it possible that girls may not be able to have children? How likely is it that children are born with problems from a vaccinated mother?
These are questions that are unknown today because extensive testing hasn’t been done on vaccines in children. Maybe not all of these issues will happen. But, I’ll bet some could.
Conclusion
Please remember that I’m not a doctor and I’m not a psychologist. I’m not trying to scare anyone and no decisions should be made based on this post. But, I want to present the facts and make an educated guess on how the mask and vax generation could evolve. In my opinion, they could have quite a bit to overcome. It would help if the Biden administration, Dr. Fauci and the CDC would be as concerned about our children as they are about getting everybody vaccinated and extending eviction moratoriums. It’s not to late to save this generation. And I pray for that every day.
