i am in the core committee talking to a dude in the committee which is a palestine advocacy group, we were about covid 19 and i suggested we should implement mandatory masking policies for indoor events, after half our leadership was down with an illness. we are also in a summer surge

he has some kind of medical degree, and worked in long term care as a medical officer of some sort. I'm kind out of depth with this rhetoric tbh,

his comments

It is normal to get sick once a year and, in fact, healthy because it helps train your immune system. Some years you won't get sick, other will be twice.

Covid doesn't cause an impact on your immue system either. Sometimes you can be In a bit of a state of inflammation which happens in many viral infections. And long covid is a topic in itself. It has never been quantified by any and all testing except subjective

maybe he would be more receptive with super libbed up sources or something, i dunno what he would respect

    Just ran across this post of 4 studies that hit pretty hard.

    This guy is an epidemiologist with a background in hospital infection control and emergency management. He just wrote an open letter to hospital administrations with a bunch of reasons they should bring back mask mandates and take covid seriously. You should be able to pull more than enough info from here or even just send the letter to the guy.
