Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of the
World Health Organization (WHO),
urged people to wear face masks once more amid a purported rise in Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) infections.
He defended the necessity of face coverings against COVID-19
in public remarks delivered July 12, during the WHO's COVID-19 media briefing that day. "As transmission and hospitalization [rates] rise, governments must also deploy tried and tested measures like masking, improved ventilation and test-and-treat protocols," said Tedros, adding that "diagnostics, treatments and vaccines are not being deployed effectively."
"There is a major disconnect in COVID-19 risk perception between scientific communities, political leaders and the general public," according to the WHO head. Thus, he acknowledged "the dual challenge of communicating risk and building community trust in health tools and public health social measures like masking, distancing and ventilation."
Tedros' call for
re-imposing mask mandates stemmed from his apparent concern about the continued rise of COVID-19 cases and deaths. These, he mentioned, put "further pressure on stretched health systems and health workers."
Epidemiologist and former Trump administration advisor Dr. Paul Alexander blasted Tedros
in a Substack post. He wrote: "Does [Tedros] not know the clear evidence that the masks never worked and will never work for this respiratory virus?
"Masks are so very ineffective … and [are] actually harmful, especially to our children. We are damaging our children and will continue to damage their developing innate immune systems with these insane, specious, illogical, irrational, absurd, non-sensical corrupted unsound COVID-19 policies."
Alexander added that "nothing worked" of the many COVID-19 measures put in place by governments worldwide.
"Not one lockdown, school closure, mask mandate, business closure, nothing. They all failed. All of our governments failed – and all they did was [make] money, [steal] emergency powers and [harm] us."
Ironically, Tedros was photographed during the G7 Summit weeks prior – devoid of a face mask and clearly disregarding physical distancing protocols, in a clear case of "rules for thee, but not for me." (Related:

Tedros also pushing for more vaccines
The WHO director-general also took the opportunity to promote vaccines during the July 12 COVID-19 media briefing.
"Vaccines have saved millions of lives," said Tedros. "It's important for governments to focus on boosting those most at-risk communities, finding the unvaccinated so as to build up the wall of immunity toward the 70 percent vaccination target."
During the G7 Summit where he was photographed without a face mask, Tedros warned that the one billion COVID-19 vaccine doses pledged by G7 leaders
were too small for the 11 billion doses needed to vaccinate the world. He insisted that to truly end the pandemic, 70 percent of the world's population must be injected with the vaccine.
Tedros continued that "planning and tackling COVID-19 should also go hand-in-hand with vaccinating for killer diseases like measles, pneumonia and diarrhea." This endeavor, he remarked, is "not a question of either-or" as "it's possible to do both." He also urged the introduction of vaccines for malaria and HPV.
Alexander also slammed Tedros' insistence on vaccination to end the pandemic in his Substack post, calling the health official a "devil" and a "beast."
The epidemiologist wrote that Tedros, just like Dr. Rochelle Walensky of the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and White House COVID-19 Response Coordinator Dr. Ashish Jha, knows "full well" that the vaccine is actually responsible for the pandemic. The shots, Alexander said, place "sub-optimal immune pressure on the [SARS-CoV-2] spike protein, driving (the) emergence of variants and expanding the pandemic."
"
The pandemic will last 100 more years if this continues," warned Alexander.
