At minute 36 CA Governor Gavin Newsom once again refers to those who opposed wearing masks during the 1918 Spanish flu.
At minute 36:10 in the video below, Newsom talks about masks for three minutes. He says “history repeats itself” and that we must wear masks “to avoid that second wave.”
“We can manifest the future we want,” he says. “Be smart about social distancing, wear a face covering…until this pandemic is behind us.”
That is an odd context to use, since Fauci and others have said that COVID may never go away and that the government might peddle annual COVID-19 ‘vaccinations.’
At 37:20 Newsom says “it’s also encumbant upon us as individuals to be smart! To wear a face covering.”
He goes on to babble for three more minutes, claiming that masks “save lives” and imploring people to “be smart” by wearing face coverings. (Note: See the 3 links below, where the Centers for disease control and the New England Journal of Medicine claim the exact opposite.)
Newsom has mentioned his negative opinion of anti-maskers before. At minute 28:20 in the video below from May 22, 2020, Newsom talks about the “elected officials and leaders who were the anti-mask Brigade,” people who were disgusted with masks during the 1918 pandemic, how they viewed wearing masks as “weak,” and how “history repeats itself.” Gavin adds that he views mask-wearers as “heroes.”

The New England Journal of Medicine, 4/1/20:
“We know that wearing a mask outside health care facilities offers little, if any, protection from infection. Focusing on universal masking alone may, paradoxically, lead to more transmission of Covid-19 if it diverts attention from implementing more fundamental infection-control measures…The chance of catching Covid-19 from a passing interaction in a public space is therefore minimal. In many cases, the desire for widespread masking is a reflexive reaction to anxiety over the pandemic… fear and anxiety are better countered with data and education than with a marginally beneficial mask, particularly in light of the worldwide mask shortage, but it is difficult to get clinicians to hear this message in the heat of the current crisis.”

The World Health Organization published a document on June 8, 2020 which states:
“the widespread use of masks by healthy people in the community setting is not yet supported by high quality or direct scientific evidence and there are potential benefits and harms to consider (see below)…the use of a mask alone is insufficient to provide an adequate level of protection”.

SOLDIERS BURNED TONS OF MANURE IN FORT REILY, KANSAS IN 1918
Consider this. In 1918 the world population was nearly 2 billion. Today it’s more than 7.53 billion. At 2018 population levels, the flu pandemic of 1918 would kill 375 million people. That’s the entire population of the United States plus another 50 million people.
How’d it start?
The outbreak started in Ft. Riley, Kansas in March of 1918 after gale force winds kicked up while soldiers were burning tons of manure, which were full of viruses etc,.. It created a massive yellow dust haze that burned throats and sinuses. Two days later there were 100 cases of flu at the camp hospital, and a week later, 500.
How’d it spread?
That was during World War I. Crowded troop train and ships were massive Petri dishes for the flu virus. Although 48 soldiers at Ft. Riley died, the survivors still carried the virus, and brought it with them to Europe where soldiers on both sides of the conflict were infected. By the time soldiers from all over the world took it back home the virus had mutated into a killer.
In cities and towns across the globe the virus spread like wildfire. At the time in the U.S. factories were running 24/7 to meet wartime demands so it spread there. Thousands of people turned out at patriotic war bond rallies across the nation, and it spread there. Church, school, ballgames — anywhere people congregated you could catch the flu. Eventually all public gatherings were banned, and theaters and bars were shut down, but it was too late.
What were the symptoms?
Unlike the common flu which takes the average person out of commission with a cold, cough, and light fever for a few days, this version caused raging fever and delirium. You coughed blood, your skin turned blue and then black, your lungs filled with fluid and you literally drowned. It worked fast. You could wake up well in the morning, and be dead in 12 hours.
Who suffered the most?
Usually the flu hits the weakest elements of our population hardest — the very young and the very old. The 1918 Pandemic was the opposite. It hit healthy young adults between the age of 21 and 40 the hardest. About 92% of deaths occurred in people under 65.
The 1918 Flu Pandemic by the numbers:
In October of 1918 alone the flu killed over 195,000 Americans, making it the deadliest month in U.S. history.
Worldwide the flu may have killed as many as 25 million people in its first 25 weeks. Older estimates say it killed 40–50 million people 1918-20, while current estimates say 50–100 million people were killed.
As a result of the pandemic the average life expectancy in the United States alone dropped by about 12 years.
In the United States the death toll reached 675,000, which was five times the number of U.S. soldiers killed in World War I.
