A group of parents, worried about the dangers posed by masking their children, sent some masks to a lab for analysis after a typical day of wear. You won’t believe what they found on the masks. Chris Enloe reports in The Blaze:
The parents wanted the face masks tested “because they were concerned about the potential of contaminants on masks that their children were forced to wear all day at school, taking them on and off, setting them on various surfaces, wearing them in the bathroom, etc.,” Rational Ground explained.
“We need to know what we are putting on the faces of our children each day. Masks provide a warm, moist environment for bacteria to grow,” parent Amanda Donoho told Rational Ground.
The tests, conducted by the University of Florida’s Mass Spectrometry Research and Education Center, discovered that five of the six masks contained a host of bacteria and three 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
- Diphtheria
- Lyme Disease
- Urinary Tract Infections
