Moms against masks

         I am writing this petition for parents across the state.

         We have the right to choose what is best for our children. Our children’s health and education is our number one focus. We must come together to ban mask mandates in our schools.

        The CDC has stated that these masks do not protect the wearer. Our children will be exposed to this whether or not they are wearing a mask. There have been numerous reports of adults falling ill due to extensive wearing of these masks, can you imagine what the long term effects could be in our children?

           “CO2 is a gas that our body naturally produces as waste. We breathe in oxygen (O2) to fuel organs and tissues and the end product is CO2. The balance between these two gases is required for a healthy body. However, when we rebreathe CO2 it can have harmful and sometimes dangerous effects on the body. When CO2 levels are elevated in the body it is known as hypercapnia.          
           Hypercapnia can occur for a number of reasons, one of which is rebreathing our own exhaled CO2. Rebreathing CO2 can lead to increased blood pressure, headaches, muscle twitches, rapid heart rate, chest pain, confusion, and fatigue. In extreme cases, if left untreated, hypercapnia can lead to organ damage and even have long standing effects on the brain.” — sited from http://thebetteroxygenmask.com/harmful-effects-of-rebreathing-carbon-dioxide-co2/

Are you okay with being mandated to either not work and possibly not being able to sustain a comfortable life for you  and your children or send your children to school in a mask that potentially has great health concerns and causes more harm than it prevents.

       Mike Pence stated in his White House press conference

“ The risk of serious illness to children is very low”

Doctor Robert Redfield went on to say, “Clearly we know a lot and I think it’s important we don’t react emotionally but we act based on data. Clearly the ability of the virus to cause significant illness in children is very very very very limited. We know of the post immune inflammatory disease that you’ve heard of but it’s very rare, but in general this virus does not cause significant illness in children.”

        Our teachers are going to spend more time talking about masks versus teaching a curriculum, this is not fair to teachers.

“While they want them open, they are asking schools to do very impractical things,” Trump wrote.

The CDC’s director, Dr. Robert Redfield, has emphasized that his agency’s guidelines are only recommendations.

        So please sign this  petition for our children and our educators. Say NO to Mask mandates! Parents and educators have the right to choose!
