Anti-Maskers--People who were against wearing facemasks

Title (Dublin Core)

Anti-Maskers--People who were against wearing facemasks

Description (Dublin Core)

There was a backlash against wearing facemasks--mostly with the conservatively inclined people. They made all kinds of claims about that--that they forced you to breath your own toxins, that they caused cancer, that they did no good, that it wasn't the government's job to protect our health, that it was against our Constitutional rights, etc. Here are just a few of those statements. The battle over masks heated up considerably after the early stages--the time which these are from.
