Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) told Breitbart News on Saturday that mask mandates — ostensibly issued for public health purposes — “are all about submission,” offering his remarks in an interview with Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow at Turning Point USA’s Student Action Summit in West Palm Beach, FL.
MARLOW: You have a terrific speech … and you started with something that I wasn’t anticipating, but I absolutely loved, and that’s some actual science about the mask mandates. You broke it down in a very clear way. Talk to us about it.
PAUL: It’d be one thing if we were told you have to give up your liberty, you have to give up your freedom, we’re going to save your life. But what if you have to give up all your freedoms and they’re wrong on the science?
Every one of the mandates — and you look in country after country, state after state — you look at when the mask mandates went in — the incidents went up exponentially after the mandates. Restaurants, nobody can eat in a restaurant, there’s no science behind any of that.
Middle seat missing on the airplane, you really think you’re like 12 inches from the other guy instead of six inches, it really makes a difference? None of it really makes any sense, and there’s no epidemiological evidence. You know, it’s like, ‘Wash your hands, stand six feet apart.’
There’s no evidence that that slowed down the [spread]. … The trajectory of the virus hasn’t been altered at all by any of these things. I think the vaccine will, and this is why I really despise people like the CNN Doctor [Sanjay] Gupta, who I think is committing television malpractice by saying, ‘Oh, your mask is a much better thing than the vaccine.’ Well, no, it isn’t. The masks aren’t working at all. The thing’s going through the roof and people are dying. Why would you want to discourage someone from taking a vaccine and say, ‘Oh wear the mask.’?
And the masks are different, too. The N95 mask actually does work to a certain extent, if worn properly and used [with] sterile technique. In the hospital, our doctors — I have a brother and sister who are doctors, they wear the N95 mask, and it’s kept them from getting infected — but there’s no value to the cloth mask, at all.
It’s like wearing your underwear. You might as well cut your underwear up and wear your underwear as protection. It doesn’t work.
MARLOW: That’s why I call it a face diaper. So you’ve got a public who has accepted this, though, by and large, because we’ve been told by everyone we have to accept it. Have we lost track of the Constitution? Have we forgotten about the Constitution?
PAUL: Well, that’s why I like this youth group here. What are they asked to give up? They’re being asked to give up their graduation from high school, their graduation from college, their wedding, and if we’re not careful, it’s gonna be their five-year wedding anniversary or their ten-year anniversary. We’re still gonna be wearing masks.

Every time I see a politician espousing masks and social distancing, but doing the opposite my question is what do they know that the rest haven’t been told. The correct mask, with our without the exhale space, is an N or P95 short of a hazmat mask. In school we learned lies, damn lies and statistics (where you can manipulate the numbers to fit your narrative.) Just stating the facts.
Rand is mamesh a rodef and rotziach and it’s a chiyuv to be maaser on him.
Please sincerely feel free not to publish this message, Since I’m very makpid not to give mussar in front of a rabim. Whatever you prefer. But to take this post as an example, if the reality is as the overwhelming majority of Doctors that wearing masks is beneficial, then it would appear to me that if someone would as a result of reading this article not wear a mask and catch it and die, you would have done Shfichas damim. I strongly feel that if you would have consistently from the beginning of the epidemic only allowed and would continuously publish the science based facts and the experts opinions regarding warnings and precautions then a number of lives bderech hateva wouldn’t have been lost. And the same thing applies to your comments that if you allow an anti scientific comment to be published you can be guilty of Shfichas damim. How could it be that twitter would flag such information while a religious website would allow such poison to be spread.I hope you forgive me for such a sharp accusation especially since I admittedly read very unoften from your site but since based on the little I have seen it does appear to me to be the case I felt obliged to speak out.
Please me Hashem. Just do not give us Corona.
What do you mean by do not give us Corona? Don’t you know that Corona is every sickness under the sun? Did anyone have the flu this year? Pneumonia or any sickness other than Corona? Did anyone die from anything but Corona?
Can’t you understand that masks serve no purpose? It doesn’t protect the wearer Nor anyone else? The only thing it can do is cause hyoxia, hypercapnia, asphyxia, shortness of breath, faint, tuberculosis, weakness, heart attacks ALL for depriving the body of adequate oxygen and for breathing in too much exhaled carbon dioxide.
I think this Senator missed the boat.
The purpose of the mask is not to prevent from getting infected. It is worn so that in case the wearer has the virus he will be prevented from giving it to others. This needs to be stressed again and again.
People think that by not wearing the mask they are saying that they don’t fear the risk of getting infected. So those people should stop washing their hands. But by not wearing a mask and not keeping distance they are saying that they don’t care if others get the virus. And that is just wrong.
Why should a normal person go around thinking they’re sick? Are you sick all the time? Were you wearing the mask last year and 2 years ago and 3 years ago and since you were born? I’m sure at some point in your life you had the flu or the fever or some other sickness, right? Well today all that is called coronavirus. If someone is sick they should be home in bed unless they’re on the way to the doctor. There’s absolutely no purpose for the mask.
There is always danger lurking around the corner. If it’s not yenim wearing a mask, it will be something else. You can’t impose your personal fears on others. You can’t just lecture others specifically on mask wearing when you know absolutely nothing at all about the other person. Are you lecturing others on their cleanliness of the coat they are wearing? Are you lecturing others on taking showers? Length of fingernails? If you are nervous or scared, you should stay home, away from potential danger. Nothing wrong with being in love with yourself, but you can’t impose that on others.
