I have written a few articles during the covid era on the wearing of face masks, outlining the potential risks, citing expert’s testimonials……
Many medical experts claim there are no health drawbacks to wearing face masks for long periods of time, as long as you regularly clean them or use a new covering each time you mask up.
I would question that statement given there has been very little data collection on the wearing of face masks in a community non-sterile setting. We see masks constantly fiddled with, removed, stuffed into jacket pockets and put down on multiple surfaces (especially by schoolchildren).
Parents send Face Masks for Lab Analysis
Therefore I was very interested when I came across an article about a group of parents in Gainesville Florida, they were so concerned about their children being forced to wear masks all day at school and the potential for contamination that they sent some off to a lab for analysis.
Laboratory Findings
The parents sent 6 recently worn face masks to the University of Florida for testing. They discovered that face masks collect numerous bacteria that cause, in many cases, serious illnesses.
The tests, conducted by the University of Florida’s Mass Spectrometry Research and Education Centre discovered that 5 of the 6 masks contained a host of bacteria and 3 of the masks were contaminated with “dangerous pathogenic and pneumonia-causing bacteria.”
The 11 “dangerous pathogens” found on the masks are responsible for illnesses that include:-
- Pneumonia
- Tuberculosis
- Meningitis and Sepsis
- Food poisoning from E.coli
- Diptheria
- Lyme Disease
- Urinary Tract Infections
Half of the masks were contaminated with 1 or more strains of pneumonia-causing bacteria. 1/3rd were contaminated with 1 or more strains of meningitis causing bacteria. 1/3rd were contaminated with dangerous antibiotic-resistant bacterial pathogens.
In addition, less dangerous pathogens were identified, including pathogens that can cause fever, ulcers, acne, yeast infections, strep throat, periodontal disease and more.
The tested masks were new or had been freshly washed. They were worn by children ages 6-11, while one was worn by an adult. Unworn masks and a T-shirt worn by one of the children were used as controls.
No pathogens were found on the controls.
Doctors Comments on the findings
The article went on to cite a couple of doctor’s comments on the findings. One, an infectious disease specialist, Dr Rossana Rosa said the risk of pneumonia transmission due to accumulated infected particles on a face mask is non-existent.
The way bacterial pneumonia tends to develop is through aspirating or breathing in contents into the lungs. So, in terms of wearing a mask, the respiratory droplets you exhale that land on the inside of your mask that you then breath back in will not give you bacterial pneumonia. If you have phlegm, you should find a way to safely spit it out. That way you aren’t at risk of breathing in large amounts of mucus or saliva into your lungs, which is how bacterial pneumonia develops.
Analysis
The laboratory findings are clearly very concerning.
I am not a doctor but I would question Dr Rosa’s rather bizarre comment.
How many children would put their hand up in class and ask the teacher if they could be excused because they had phlegm to get rid of? How many children or parents actually know about this issue? Do kids know how to “spit phlegm safely”?
Doctors have been warning that Bacterial Pneumonias are on the rise from mask wearing. https://unitynewsnetwork.co.uk/medical-doctor-warns-that-bacterial-pneumonias-are-on-the-rise-from-mask-wearing/
The majority of deaths during the Spanish Flu pandemic were NOT caused by the virus, researchers from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases report.
Pathologists of the time were nearly unanimous in the conviction that deaths were NOT caused directly by the virus, but resulted from Severe Secondary Pneumonia caused by various bacteria. Absent the bacterial infections, many patients might have survived.
Children’s health is precious it is therefore our responsibility to take every step necessary to protect it and prevent harm.
Time to remove those masks?

I wrote my first article for Unity News Network on 30th December 2019, and I have been writing ever since – my library is now well in excess of 200 articles.
Alternative media is essential in these times of unprecedented censorship and mainstream bias, which has ramped up exponentially during the past 2 years. The overton window of “acceptable opinion” is growing every narrower.
Having a citizen’s log, cataloguing the twists and turns of life during these turbulent times is essential.
Thank you Unity News Network for allowing me a voice on your platform.
