' reduced verbal, motor, and overall cognitive performance of two full standard deviations in scores in children born during the pandemic,' the researchers wrote in the paper, published in the journal Heliyon.īut the study could not conclusively prove that the masks were directly responsible for any of these complications.ĭr Stuart Fischer, an emergency care physician in New York, questioned whether there was a 'toxic buildup' of CO2. A third study found that three percent CO2 (equivalent of 0.8 percent for humans) in pregnant rats caused stillbirth and birth defectsĪlluding to the surge in stillbirths during the pandemic, the German researchers said: 'Circumstantial evidence exists that popular mask use may be related to current observations of a significant rise of 28 percent to 33 percent in stillbirths worldwide.' Another found that male mice exposed to 2.5 percent CO2 for four hours - equal to 0.5 percent for humans - resulted in the destruction of testicular cells and sperm. ![]() One study the German researchers looked at found that just 0.3 percent prolonged CO2 exposure to both pregnant rats and young mice led to brain damage, heightened anxiety and poorer memory.
