Spanish Peer-Reviewed Study Found School Mask Mandates Do Not Prevent COVID-19 Transmission — Says Transmission is Lower in Preschool than in Primary Education



School mask mandates in Catalonia, Spain were shown to not reduce the spread of COVID-19; instead, age plays an important factor in the transmission of the virus, according to a peer-reviewed study.

The findings of this study were published in the journal BMJ Archives Diseases in Childhood with the title “Unravelling the role of the required use of face-covering masks for the control of SARS-CoV-2 in schools: a quasi-experimental study nested in a population-based cohort in Catalonia (Spain).”

The study examined 599,314 children aged 3–11 years attending preschool (3-5 years, without face covering mask (FCM) mandate) and primary education (6–11 years, with FCM mandate) in schools in Catalonia.

The study began on September 13, 2021, and continued until December 22, 2021, before the Omicron variant.

The researchers concluded, “We found no significant differences in SARS-CoV-2 transmission due to FCM mandates in Catalonian schools. Instead, age was the most important factor in explaining the transmission risk for children attending school.”

A recent study published at NIH confirmed disposable face masks released dangerous levels of the carcinogen titanium dioxide (TiO2), as previously reported by The Gateway Pundit.

The study found that the TiO2 levels exceeded the acceptable exposure level by four times or more.

Here is the report from the NIH National Library of Medicine:

Although titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a suspected human carcinogen when inhaled, fiber-grade TiO2 (nano)particles were demonstrated in synthetic textile fibers of face masks intended for the general public.
