CLAY: Buck, study out of Michigan on masking students in schools. While they will try to spin it because they are dishonest and unfair when it comes to analyzing basic data, you just sent it to me and we were reading it during the break. The data reflects that masks do virtually nothing at all to protect children inside of schools.
There is no suggestion that your kids are safer in any way substantive way with masks. Studies now from everywhere, and the data here, they’ll try to spin as, “Oh, my God! This proves how safe masks are!” All it proves is they don’t work at all.
BUCK: This is a dishonesty of scale where they’ll say things, like… You will now come across people who, if masking is, at least statistically — and can you even prove this when you add in all variables? The answer is, no. But there will be people who say, “If it stops just one case,” Clay?
CLAY: Yes.
BUCK: “If masking stops one kid out-of-a-million from getting covid,” not even from dying, from getting covid, which has a one in a million chance of death. So it’s one in a million and one in a million, and they’ll say, “It’s worth it to stifle your kid’s breath all day and to put them through that psychological, emotional, and physical discomfort,” because masking has turned into a religion. It is the central sacrament of Fauciism.
CLAY: This was like the argument that you and I had to push back against in the early days of covid. We’d hear all the time, “Well, if it saves just one life, it’s worth it,” right? That was argued all the time. That was preeminent on social media in March and April, and you actually know that’s the direct contravention of every risk analysis that basically any adult has ever made.
You would save lives if we all walked around wearing motorcycle helmets all day long every day because some people trip and fall in the shower. You should shower with a motorcycle helmet on, because you might fall and hit your head in the shower. It doesn’t make sense, but it probably would save some lives if everybody more motorcycle helmets everywhere.
BUCK: It absolutely would. NASCAR drivers wear helmets and they’d be crazy not to, right?
CLAY: Right.
BUCK: It absolutely would save lives if you wore a helmet all — and I’d have to get a special one ’cause my head is huge.
BUCK: But you have a pretty sizable noggin, too, Travis, I gotta say. You’re not quite in the weird-size territory that I’m in, but big.
CLAY: Ted Kennedy? Ted Kennedy head?
BUCK: You’ve got a sizable cranium.
CLAY: Imagine. You can make the argument. You could say, “Hey, we’d save a lot of lives if everybody wore football helmets all day. You’re gonna go into school and you’re gonna wear a football helmet. You’re gonna drive in a football helmet.”
BUCK: The car analogy is people die in cars all the time.
CLAY: Yes.
BUCK: And how do you die in a car? Mostly it’s head injuries, right?
CLAY: Yes. Yes.
BUCK :It’s usually not a fiery wreck, although that can happen, too. It’s usually a head injury that happens in car that’s what’s lethal for someone and helmets would certainly reduce those at some level — and, Clay, based on the masking data that we see? One-in-a-million, man. If it stops one in a million, it’s worth it for everyone to suffer through wearing helmets all day long.
CLAY: We should also drive 10 miles an hour, Buck, and wear helmets. It would be impossible to die in a car accident.
