WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) – A Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court rejected the request of a father and his disabled 4-year-old son to end the mask mandate required for air travel. 

Last Thursday Chief Justice John Roberts rejected an emergency request seeking to block the federal mask mandate for air travel. Michael Seklecki, a Florida resident, had filed the lawsuit against the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) on behalf of himself and his disabled 4-year-old son. Seklecki cited medical reasons as the need for an immediate injunction. Also joining as a plaintiff on the case was Washington resident Lucas Wall, who says he has been stranded in Florida since the beginning of the pandemic due to his inability to wear a mask. 

According to an analysis by the New York Times, “The chief justice did not ask for a response to the application for emergency relief or refer the application to the full Supreme Court, and he gave no reasons for his ruling. Those were all signs that he viewed the legal question in the case as insubstantial.” 

While Roberts axed the request for an emergency injunction, the broader challenge seeking to overturn the measure through litigation has progressed through the lower courts, and is awaiting an appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, according to the Axios news website. 

Despite the widespread implementation of masks mandates as a measure to fight the so-called COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a growing body of data coming out of the scientific community calling the practice into question. 

Currently, there are at least 47 studies showing the ineffectiveness of masks, with an additional 32 studies finding that not only is their use unnecessary and futile, but harmful to people’s health.  

Notably, masks have been linked to lower oxygen levels in the blood, an increase in the growth of bacteria and fungi, the harmful proliferation of microplastics, increased psychological distress, and developmental and emotional dysfunction in children 

While the TSA’s mask mandate is due to expire on March 18, the agency has a history of extending their unscientific mandates to keep in line with the mainstream media’s narrative that “social distancing,” experimental vaccinations, and inhibited breathing are necessary measures to combating a virus the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) reports as having an infection survival rate of greater than 99.95% for those under age 50.
