I just had a look what she actually said. She talked about the long term impact of covid infections and advocated for cleaned filtered air to reduce the number of infection. She wasn't talking about mask mandates, but in a previous speech a year or 2 ago she said that mask mandates in medical facilities would be a good idea (Something which a fair number of hospitals in the world still do to reduce hospital acquired infections.) Everything she said is backed by scientific evidence.
"Here's what we know about SARS CoV2. It is airborne, floating and lingering in the air, one infection can result in disabling damage to almost every cell in the body from the brain and heart to the nerves and blood vessels."
Violet also said that "every subsequent infection increases the risk of long movement and places people who already have it in greater danger."
"As Dr. Akiko Iwasaki says, at this point, the whole population is the control group, and after only five years, long COVID has surpassed asthma as the most common chronic illness in children in five years and under," she explained. "
"During her speech, Violet said: "My hope for this event and my belief in this community pressed on the belief that we can and we must do that again. We can recognize filtered air as a human right, as intuitively as we do filtered water. We can create clean air infrastructure that is so ubiquitous and so obviously necessary, so that tomorrow's children don't even know why we need it.'
