The Highwire with Del Bigtree - NEW SCIENCE SHOWS MASK HARMS

Episode Date: May 28, 2022

The mask insanity may have reached its peak this week when unmasked stage actress, Patti LuPone, unleashed a tirade on an audience member for letting her mask slide below her nose, despite the lack of studies from the CDC proving mask efficacy against the spread of Covid-19. In fact, a new study out of Italy concluded that wearing a mask increases levels of inhaled CO2.#PattiLupone #MaskEfficacy #MaskInsanityBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-highwire-with-del-bigtree--3620606/support.

Many years ago, I spent my time in New York. I did some acting, I did some traveling, and musical theater, all of that. And I remember watching the Academy Awards, longingly dreaming maybe someday that would be me and Tony Awards and all those things. And through the years, every once in a while, one of those actors would step up on the stage

and do some diatribe about some political issue. And I remember all the pundits going crazy. Who are these actors? Who do they think they are dictating upon us their knowledge as though they have any knowledge beyond, you know, how to hit a B flat without a piano or to, you know, do a two-step across the stage. And, you know, it was always offensive when I was an actor, but now when I look back, there are these moments, and it can be a little bit disgusting when an actor comes to some sort of self-aggrandized moment to pontificate upon us,

their own opinions about a subject. Well, I don't think anything has exemplified how disgusting that can be more than a video that is going viral this week, is out of New York City, I believe. This is a Broadway show, and Patty Lepone, one of the great singers of our times, decided that she had something to say to an audience member who apparently was letting their mask slide below their nose. Take a look at this. I mean, the irony of the fact that she's sitting with like co-stars all around here, none of them are wearing masks, but apparently if you're sitting next to each other and you're not an actor, who do you think you are? In fact, I was thinking, you know, if you were writing this into a script which Patty Lepone is used to reading, I think that screenplay would read something like this.

Ms. Lepone screams at the audience member. Pull your mask over your nose. Who do you think you are? If you don't care about the people sitting next to you, then get the fuck out. Cut to the two co-stars sitting directly next to Mrs. Lepone, wiping her saliva from their faces the results of her frothing, spit, spewing, tirade. At least that's how I would write it if I was writing the screenplay. Ms. Lepone, you're totally out of line. You're totally hypocritical.

And what do you call these two things sitting right next to you on both sides? Are those not people, too? Are you not disrespecting them? I mean, wake up and look around you. This is the type of insanity we're all dealing with, this type of madness. And maybe it's not Patty Lepone's fault, you know. She's a part of that brainwashing, you know, insanity. She's watching CNN every single day.

It's really getting her overly excited. And so she's lashing out. And maybe she feels like she's lost too much salary already from the COVID pandemic. And now that they finally open up and allow me if people wear their masks, she gets to get paid, which is what one of the audience members points out, we're paying your salary. And she didn't seem to like that response very much. But this masking issue has really been one of the big juggernauts since the beginning of the COVID pandemic. In fact, I found myself in the middle of this.

I have questioned the use of vaccines. We have had professionals on here many, many times before. But, you know, one video we did in particular, and this made me think about it because it's sort of come up again for several different reasons. But I brought my son ever on over a year ago. I think it's probably almost a year and a half ago onto the show to test masks. We had gotten a CO2 monitor and we decided let's just see what the CO2 levels are in his mask. Just for those of you that haven't been following us for that long, this is just a little experience. the types of things we do here on the high wire, this is what that look like.

This is my son ever. Ever is 11 years old. And here in Texas, the mandate right now is that 10 and over have got to wear a mask. Ever has to wear a mask wherever we go. And so we bought this thing this week. This is, this measures the amount of CO2 that's in the air. Can we just look at the ocean numbers? Carbon dioxide levels and potential health problems are indicated below. From 250, 350 is the background, normal outdoor level. 350 to 1,000 ppm typical level found in occupied spaces with good air exchange. 1,000 to 2,000 level associated with complaints of drowsiness and poor air. Obviously, I don't want ever to have drowsiness or poor air.

2,000, level associated with headaches, sleepiness, and stagnant, stale, stuffy, airport, concentration, loss of attention, increased heart rate, and slight nausea may also be present. And then 5,000 ppm or more. This indicates unusual air conditions where high levels of the other. gases also could be present toxicity or oxygen deprivation could occur, meaning do not hit 5,000. All right, here we go. Right now we're at 848.

So I'm going to go ahead and just insert this right like as he did, right? It's underneath and try and keep it. That feels pretty tight right there, right? Okay, so you can just breathe naturally. Let's just see what happens. Okay. All right, so we're at 1,367. We've already just passed two.

So now we're in the place where he could be having headaches. He can be over at 3,786. Look at this. We've just passed 5,000. Now we're in the toxic level, right? Now we can be doing this. 7,000 inside this mask of the CO2, 8,000 parts per million. And now this thing's gone off the Richter scale, folks.

It can't even register how high the CO2 levels are inside. And look how many seconds that was. What? All right. Can I just... Yeah, you want to take that off? I'll be totally honest with you and I suppose there's people that would say how could you subject...

I did actually people did write it and say how could you subject your son to that if you knew that it was dangerous? I mean, these are the types of things but we did test every type of mask. The bandana did it. There was the surgical mask. Got up there pretty high also and then even the face shield collected some CO2 under the shield. Well, I think this is one of the most of the most.

viral videos we ever had. And it was one of the most censored videos we ever had. Virtually on almost every platform it played on, it would eventually be taken down millions of people saw it. And because of that, we were attacked with many, many fact checkers writing articles about it. This is AFP fact check. Flawed experiments exaggerate risk from CO2 concentration in masks. Another one by Medium Matters. YouTube videos falsely claiming that masks are harmful have gotten hundreds of thousands of views. And even look, our own Steve Kirsch, this is a guy that has been a great supporter of this movement and the work just a few weeks ago.

He put this article out was the Dell Big Tree CO2 Mass Demo misleading. And he goes into some very specific argument that ultimately agrees that master dangerous, but somehow the CO2 machine we used and we didn't use it properly and things like that. Now, you know, I'll be honest with you. We were just playing around. We did use the monitor. We just want to see was the CO2 there. We were shocked that it went way above the ocean numbers that were recommended.

But for all of those out there that have been attacking us, again, fact-checking the high wire in this experiment that we did, I just want to say, you know, the science always comes around. The truth does prevail. And, you know, there is a study that is now coming out. There's a brand new pre-print. I believe it's coming out of Italy. Take a look at this. Inhale, CO2 concentration while wearing face masks. a pilot study using Kepnography.

I'm assuming a technology far more sophisticated than we had with our little experiment here at the high wire. But let's read what they discovered. None of the available evaluations of the inhaled air carbon dioxide concentration while wearing face masks use professional real-time kepnography with water removal tubing. Yeah, we definitely didn't do that. We measure the N-Title CO2 using professional sidestreamed capnography with water-removing tubing at rest without masks, wearing a surgical mask, and wearing an FFP2 respirator.

That's our N95 mask, essentially, in 102 healthy volunteers aged in 10 to 90 years from the general population of Ferrara Province, Italy. What did they discover? Well, the mean CO2 concentration was 4,965 on average, I guess, and that was plus or minus. It could be off by about 1,000 parts per million, so above and below, depending on who is getting it with surgical masks. So that was the blue surgical mask. They were up there around 5,000, which is about the number we were seeing with our little experiment. And look at this. When I told you it went off the Richter scale, that was 10,000 on our little monitor with an N95 mask.

Their N95 mask came at it, 9,396. Some of them went plus 2,254 parts per million. So they went up to 11, 12, 13 parts per million or below with the N95 mask. The proportion of the sample is showing a CO2 concentration higher than the 5,000 PPM acceptable exposure threshold recommended for workers was 40.2% while wearing surgical masks and 99% of those wearing the N95 masks were above that healthy standard moving into places where it would be bad for your health. And so adjusting for age, gender, BMI, N smoking, the inhaled air, CO2 concentration significantly increased with increasing respiratory rate. We know kids breathe fast. They've up there. faster respiratory rate, and thus it says, and was higher among the miners, who showed a mean

CO2 concentration of 12,847 parts per million while wearing the N95 respirators. So for all of you haters out there, and yeah, Steve, we've had a great little back and forth on this, which I love. Look, I love the debate. I love the, you know, the conversation. But in case, you know, you want to know if I would be exonerated, well, or even that I cared if I was exonerated. Do what I care? I didn't care. The truth is, is we knew what we did. We knew what we had said. We're simply showing you CO2 is collecting. That can't be good. And we're not talking about one hour. We're not talking about two hour. Your kids have been wearing this eight hours of freaking day every single day of their life. There is no way that that is increasing their health. That is a problem. That was all

we were trying to show, but now we have official science with even better machines proving exactly what you would have found had you been watching the high wire a year and a half ago. That's the kind of thing we do here. We do it all. We'll do studies. We'll bring in graphs. We talk to international scientists and all that's made possible by you. So let me take this opportunity during one of my, you know, more proud I told you so, because it involves me and my son ever, which is a great father's son moment during this moment and this I told you so brought to you by the high wire I'd like to recommend that you be a part of good science and good news reporting that goes out of its way to show different ways and different things that we use to get to the truth you're making that

possible by being a recurring donor we really need your help man we're up against it we got the WHO coming up they're going to try and take over the world we have a fight on our hands to become a recurring donor just go and we're asking for 20 $22 for 2022. I mean, that's less than lunch these days. Skip one lunch, maybe it'll even be better for your health, little intermittent fasting, and you get to contribute to all of the legal cases, all the science, all of the things that we do, and actually make a difference in this world. For all of you that make the high wire possible every single week, that have funded all of those winning lawsuits, we are the most successful nonprofit when you're a

it comes to legal cases dealing with vaccinations and these health issues, you make that possible. For those of you that are experiencing that, I know how good it must feel when we announce, you know, the next win that we've had or the next FOIA request that we've got or the next document dump of Tony Fauci's emails that falls in your lap and all the other things we do. For those of you that are just watching and thinking, boy, I really like what's happening here. Why don't you feel what it's like to say I made that happen? I'm a part of the high-wired team. I'm a part of that informed consent action network.

It's all of us. It's going to take all of us. If we're going to win against these behemoths we're up against, I want to thank all of you for your support. And please become a recurring donor. It makes a difference, not just for us, but for you, to know that you can make a difference in this world.
