  1. This is why AMERICA has the highest DEATH rate of this PANDEMIC on the PLANET 🥺….#MaskSavesLives

  2. China had 3 cases of Covid and shut down a city of 14 million. America had 1 case and turned it into 1.4 million per day.

    Covid deaths US 928,879 vs China 4,636 vs New Zealand 53. Remember 2 years ago when Trump said it would just go away.

    US parents protest at school meetings about? A: 186 school shootings in 10 years B: Masks.

    The USA, where you used to be able to own people but now suddenly wearing a mask is having your freedom taken away. H.Franklin

  3. Yeah lots of lies no science. Simply look at the bio hazard suits they wore developing the virus

  4. Thank God. I never once masked my kids. Over my dead body would I go along with that BS. Masking children was 100% absurd and totally abusive. Shame on you if you masked your kids

  5. What a punch in the gut for front line workers just because numbers of covid cases are going down this timing is just a hard punch in the gut for hard working front line workers who save lives many who are careless such as people who are non vaccinated / no mask practiced JUST LIKE PEOPLE WANT TO WALK AROUND RISKING LIFE ALONG WITH OTHERS HAVING NO MASK PRACTICE FRONTLINES SHOULD STRIKE OUT OF FIGHTING COVID PATIENTS WHO CHOOSE TO NOT PROTECT THEMSELVES BY WEARING A MASK

  6. They fear people are not going to stand for this frickin nonsense anymore

  7. Once this happens, every state should be be flooded with lawsuits, ripping up everysingle government action, that allowed this to continue, so it may never happen again.

  8. And All the Sudden a New Variant Takes Off like Wildfire & Massive Outbreaks once more.

  9. Literally the opposite is True. They are not the FAKE news…..Trump was right, they are the CORRUPT news.

    Wait till people find out there is no test for covid……..

    …….they won't be able to walk down the streets.

    Crimes against humanity.

  10. My granddaughter will continue to wear a mask don't care what they say.💯🎯

  11. I'll still be voting against these democrats. I can't believe they did what they did with covid. And not following their own rules. That's enough of the hypocrisy

  12. They are following the science. A new study indicated that children are 99.98% safe from covid. However children are suffering academically and socially.

    Also riding in a car isn't 99.98% safe sooooo

  13. Predictably, ten of the top eleven states with the lowest funding for education are the Republican-led states of Florida, Kentucky, Arkansas, South Dakota, Alabama, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Tennessee, Idaho and Utah.

  14. Shout out to George Floyd on 623 days of sobriety. It took some tough love but he did it. Say his name liberals!!

  15. Folks, Jesus Christ, the Son of God, died for our sins.
    He was buried and resurrected on the third day.
    Believe in Him to be saved.

  16. When Americans were banned from entering Canada, here in Niagara Falls, life became sweeter.
    I know, people like to say what people do on vacations isn't how they would act back home,
    but Americans weren't like that. All these immigrants from India are so polite and full of personality,
    and they speak English better than the English and Americans. This isn't saying I want Americans to keep
    the virus circulating, it's just that looking down on the United States looks that way.

  17. Masks would only a small fragment of history if people got vaccinated the first time, but better late than never I guess.😪

  18. Children are walking bags of germs. But sure, go ahead and lift the mask mandates. You selfish parents can always make more kids to replace the ones that will die from COVID, right?

  19. People are awake to what is really going on. This covid scam is blowing up in the faces of the tyrants who used it for their power grab

  20. Because MASK don’t work!

  21. Lift them everywhere! Time to move on and live life.
