Why are state governors and health authorities all of a sudden mandating the wearing of face masks?
The excuse is that these mandates are needed because of the “spike” in new cases and increased hospitalizations due to COVID.
But for even the casually inquisitive mind who starts to ask simple questions to try and figure out the rationale for this, it becomes very obvious that there is something else motivating these new edicts, because:
They were NOT mandated during the height of the so-called crisis, and are only in recent days being mandated.
When these mandates are given, the basis for them is almost entirely on an appeal to authority, with no science being offered to rationalize the mandates. (Mainly because the actual science does NOT support their claims.)
The mandates do not even specify what kind of mask one needs to supposedly protect oneself and stop the spread of COVID, so that means pretty much anything that loosely resembles a mask is OK to comply with these mandates.
Most of the face masks are from China, and it took some time to ramp up production and get them approved, so that they have only started becoming more widely available in recent weeks, about the same time that governors and health officials started mandating them.
Coincidence?
