MIT's new mask policy bans groups from forcing people to wear masks
Bravo. A giant step forward. I'm sure my outreach to MIT had nothing to do with this.
MIT has a new mask policy: they aren’t required anymore.
More importantly, you can’t be forced to wear a mask.
Bravo.
It’s a step forward. They still think the CDC is credible and masks work, but I’m thankful for this step forward. One step at a time.
It’s still amazing to me that anyone at MIT thinks masks work. My $50,000 debate challenge.
If you are an MIT faculty member who thinks that masks work, if you want to debate my team and show how we got it wrong, I’ll make a major donation to your research group.

MIT's New Mask Policy Bars People From Asking Others to Mask Up
At my dental office I told my hygienist I'm glad they stopped the mask mandate. She laughed "No, we just got tired of telling people."
Same thing at another doctor yesterday; no apparent mask mandate that was in place 3 weeks ago. Did not ask if they just got tired of non-compliance.
Hi Steve, I love this! I just had a similar win. I'm in Massachusetts, our HS emailed that only vaccinated and boosted students could on a field trip to the Newport Mansions. I emailed everyone of relevance at the school with in minutes! Many back and forth discussions, no progress, just lots of blaming others, "nothing we can do".
I called the Newport Mansions foundation, a lovely gentleman returned my call and I reminded him what they were doing was discrimination, he said they were looking to see what other institutions were doing (excuse/group think/can anyone make a decision?!).
I said...no worries, you guys do whatever you have to do...I will continue to do my job as a parent and push all public schools to steer clear of foundations that discriminate against students, no problem, have a nice day :)
3 hours later the principal of my school emailed me and said "good news, The Newport Mansions just drop all their restrictions."
