Actually, there are studies that show that sunglasses interfere w #FacialRecognition more than #Masks.
I wrote about the outrageous #MaskBans here: www.forbes.com/sites/judyst...
New article just published:
Indiana Anti-Mask bills without adequate medical exemption.
Also FYI the site is currently being migrated to Drupal.
#HoosierSky #Indiana #Accessibility #MaskBans
"Local #maskbans have already been enacted in #NassauCounty on #LongIsland... Banning #facemasks undermines #publichealth and pushes people with #disabilities and those who are #immunocompromised further into the margins."
Don't forget NC, LA, NY and likely others are trying to #MaskBans, too--except for ICE, who can do what they want with impunity.
On the terror of unidentified men disappearing people across the country. Thx @crampell.bsky.social And people need to be allowed to mask to prevent themselves or loved ones from infections. Say no to #MaskBans www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
Yet another fascist crackdown on masking and mask distribution-- further criminalizing people for exercising their right to health and privacy. Those who've been tracking #MaskBans since the start won't be too surprised. Solidarity with LA protestors and mask blocs! Take action: StopMaskBans.com
Starbucks also wants to force-infect employees and customers by banning employees’ right to wear a mask to protect their health. Disgusting and cruel. Every time we think about buying any of their products, we just remember how Starbucks is forcing the spread of disease and we are DONE. #MaskBans

Well, what are the #Disabled & the immunocompromised like me supposed to do?🙄 #CovidIsNotOver & now #Measles is every bloody where!😠 Now there are #MaskBans being put into to #law. WTF are we supposed to do? 😡 Stop being so damn glib when real lives are at risk.
Last month, the Trump admin added fuel to the fire, issuing letters to Columbia & Harvard demanding campus #maskbans. Columbia capitulated, continuing their disastrous strategy of attacking #Palestine solidarity mvmts at the expense of everyone’s health & privacy www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
Community-building is also at the heart of WHN, offering support spaces for those navigating an increasingly hostile public health landscape.

I was in the room when the #NassauCounty mask ban happened, and feel uniquely qualified to talk on this bizarre, but evilly logical, fixation. 🧵 #MaskBans
pmefa.org wow i love to see it #wearamask #illinois #maskbans #longcovid i hope this will carve a path for future bills to be created. Cause holy shit why is a protective medical device so polarising
I’m writing about #maskbans & air pollution in US West for @thesicktimes.bsky.social. Looking for folks who can speak to that intersection: people w/ #LongCOVID and COVID-conscious people also impacted by air pollution (inversion, Valley Fever, wildfires, etc). Reach out to amelia.diehl at gmail.
#MaskBans are fascist. They are anti-science. They are anti-people.
Masks, such as N95, KN94, or P100 masks are used in industrial and medical settings to prevent harm to one's lungs.
They are also used by people who wish to protect their lungs from airborne pathogens, smoke, and allergens […]

"Is this less bad than some of the other bills we’ve seen? Absolutely,” said Allie Bohm, senior policy counsel at the NYCLU.
“Is it a good idea? No.”
📣 A bill to ban masks is always a bad bill because #maskbans won't make us safer, healthier, or protect people from discrimination.

I haven't laughed this hard in awhile. 😂 What a great way to point out how absurd mask bans are. #pandemic #maskup #maskbans
@uriebay.bsky.social @beyerstein.bsky.social @tomlevenson.bsky.social @anniegirl.bsky.social @doloresquintana.bsky.social @merlinofcanada.bsky.social @maej43.bsky.social Le sigh. #MaskBans continue.🤨
earlier this year. Vocal proponents of regulating masks are skeptical a ban would have prevented Thompson’s murder, though. “If a guy is going to do an assassination, that probably wasn’t something that legislation was intended to deal with,” Assemblymember David Weprin, a Queens Democrat who supported the mask ban, told Playbook. The shooting has also added to Democratic frustrations over the proliferation of guns, especially in crowded areas of the city.
If even supporters of mask bans admit these laws won’t stop violent crimes, why pass them? They harm public health, fuel discrimination, and make us less safe.
