I’m not intending this to turn into a mask vs. no-mask debate. I’m just wondering if anyone can recommend a pediatrician or GP who is against the mask mandate. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Do you want a mask vs no mask debate, because this thread is how you get a mask vs no mask debate.

is this some sort of roundabout way of trying to find someone to get you drugs?

I think this is called the tail wagging the dog.

Maybe you should just find a pediatrician you trust in general, and follow their lead on mask vs no mask.

If you feel strongly about no masks, how did you get there if it wasn't through the advice of a pediatrician you trust?

Not only that....he wants that person to care for his children

And apparently we are supposed to automatically know where this idiot lives to make these recommendations

There is a African WitchDoctor in Houston that is anti-mask. As a bonus she can cure your demon herpes as well.

Im sure dozens of MD’s have — pardon the pun —taken the temperature of the OT Lounge and publicly denounced masks.

Nonpharmaceutical Measures for Pandemic Influenza in Nonhealthcare Settings—Personal Protective and Environmental Measures

Jingyi Xiao1, Eunice Y. C. Shiu1, Huizhi Gao, Jessica Y. Wong, Min W. Fong, Sukhyun Ryu, and Benjamin J. Cowling

May 2020

“ Disposable medical masks (also known as surgical masks) are loose-fitting devices that were designed to be worn by medical personnel to protect accidental contamination of patient wounds, and to protect the wearer against splashes or sprays of bodily fluids (36). There is limited evidence for their effectiveness in preventing influenza virus transmission either when worn by the infected person for source control or when worn by uninfected persons to reduce exposure. Our systematic review found no significant effect of face masks on transmission of laboratory-confirmed influenza.”

One study among many others, but I should trust the politicians right?

I should have known better than to ask here. If anyone has a serious answer I’d love to hear it.

What the frick

Take your child to the right pediatrician regardless of their mask policy (good luck finding one that doesn't require one, if you're Ina state that does).
It won't make you less than a man.
