oh oh i'm sorry, i'll use on today's at 36 to you. we're going to look at the various effects mass have had on our youngest generation and is america the only country, lower youth academic standard. host pandemic. let's get started. ah, america is now pushing or to lower academic standards in schools. we're seeing claims, mathis, racist high schools in virginia are getting rid of advanced diplomas, saying they are discriminatory. the entire a p and i, b placement programs are all under scrutiny. meanwhile, american school systems are already way behind schools in europe. china and india
3:31 pm
are actually raising their academic standards in schools. plus the centers for disease control quietly lowered developmental milestones for children, age 2 and $3.00. now this all comes after proven studies show children have developmental issues due to masking. joining us now is a doctor, marian mass founder, practicing physicians of america and a pediatrician who has practice in suburban of philadelphia for 21 years. thanks for joining us, dr. now this was the 1st major event and present day, which touched every aspect of life, all in regards to our children. what did we actually get right about how we handled the pandemic? i love that question so much because i like to be a positive person and, and i feel like everyone has talked about what we got wrong. so something that i saw happening early on in the pandemic was people started to do
3:32 pm
more every day, real hands on things with their children. i read about people, baking sour dough bread, cooking with their children, gardening, with their children, reading too, with their children. and these are things that, you know, i have always supported as, as a pediatrician and a mom i'm in, in my community that i've helped put gardens in the schools i've, i've helped talk to the schools about the importance of, of gardening and cooking with your kids nutrition and the fact that doing these things is really giving kids their actual hands on experience of doing things. we don't think about it, but when children are so tied up on line on screens and they're not doing things physically, i don't think they feel the same sense of accomplishment that we might when we do something. virtual children are concrete at many ages and need to they need to see the effects of, of their labor. so i think this was something that was really wonderful. i also saw
3:33 pm
parents well at this one without necessity. you know, of course, there were no activities anymore. her right, and everyone talks about the modern parenting model, that money, modern model of our children being so over scheduled. and i think for kids this gave them a little bit of a breath of fresh air. of course, there was probably a little too much of that, but i, i think it really did help bring families together and give children some building blocks of doing actual hands on activities. i thought that was wonderful. what lessons did we learn, which will actually help us if ever presented a situation like this? again, i hope that we learn the lesson that i that we need to take a deep breath and not turn circular firing squads on one or another. you know, i'm still feeling the effects of the anger that came out of cobit. i feel like it's receiving a little bit,
3:34 pm
but i feel like people were so angry at one another. everyone had a different loss because of code it, right? you know, if, if you, if you lost a parent, if you lost a, a caregiver, if you lost a brother, a sister, that was a huge loss course. but then there were people that lost chunks their lives. children lost chunks of their childhood. and i think it was very easy for people to go to a point of anger, but not, not tried to respect one another's losses. and i hope we have learned the less than that. you know, the anger and the blaming and the shaming. it doesn't help it drives wedges between, between humans, and that's a terrible place for us today. i've known about families that work just ripped apart from this. it's so sad. now, there was a lot of confusion. it was actually very ramping during the pandemic. all this regarding the do's and don'ts for parents. did you as a physician, ever question what was being put out?
3:35 pm
and did doctors actually have the freedom to differ an opinion for their patients? i felt as though, if i questioned the, the right or the option of someone to choose, to have friends over to shoes, to socialize, i, i felt shamed myself, you know, sometimes from members of my own profession, it grew to a point where i didn't want to even tell people what i was doing myself, you know, very early on, you remember potting became like a very popular thing to do a couple months into the pandemic. i just, i didn't have a name for it, but i told my children to pause right from the get go must have been like a week or 2 weeks in that you, you are not going to thrive and prosper and grow and be mentally healthy person as you're cut off from everyone, you know, i told him who we need social distancing from his, everyone underneath your we might like not be so happy with one another. you know,
3:36 pm
it's not a healthy environment. i remember i did an interview with philadelphia newspaper, maybe about may of 2020. i got a lot of angry commentary on it. it was as though, you know, i'm not allowed to discuss this. that was it. that was just so unwarranted. you know, my professional, others are professionals that were coming back in land besting me. you know, we made our own decisions about, you know, vaccinations and we made them frequently and we made them after reviewing the literature. and i felt as if you questioned it. if you question, nope, must get back to you. one must get vaccine too, and you must get them 3 weeks apart from each other or else or some kind of crazy anti oxer. i mean that's just excuse my vernacular. that's nuts. and what that did, in addition to have white thought and discussion, tamp,
3:37 pm
stay on people who are watching. i think they stopped trusting because if, if people are going to insist on a narrative, instead of a discussion when we're in a novel medical situation, people who are watching and doubting themselves are going to stop trusting the people who are attempting to lead the discussion. i kind of called them sometimes i felt as though there were these m a self appointed media, social media anointed gurus. and i don't even know what a covered expert is really, i guess, you know, the people that are a infectious id. physicians that are virology tests, i want to hear what they have to say about what's different with this virus and what's not. but people who run around and say that their mask experts on cove it and, and various others forms of experts in a situation. it's new and novel when they're so much information that we really
3:38 pm
don't know the people i trust are the people who are willing to have conversations and to state. i don't know, i'm not sure. those are people that i tend to really trust. now, what changes have you observed in your own patients which are different than pre pandemic times? so in, you know, understand that, you know, every day i go into b will not every day, the days that i do work and work part time clinically in an urgent care setting situation. so i'm meeting patients all the time and it's a rapid fire kind of setting. so a parents like to talk about this and as i'm logging onto my computer, there's always a few minutes to talk. i think one of the things that certainly held throughout the pandemic was the increasing amount of, of anxiety, especially anxiety and depression that was felt by children throughout pandemic. and the worst of all forms are, you know,
3:39 pm
was the increase that i knew about of suicide attempts. so we live in a very small suburban area and there is a small hospital and i used to work in the hospital and you spend a good amount of time in the e. r. a teenage suicide attempt was something that happened a couple times a year. and staff was always shaken. i was told that that particular hospital had 5 attempts in one weekend. think about that. i mean, i feel as though i, i pull up expert opinions and, you know, they'll say we've looked at the numbers in there, haven't been as many suicides as was thought during the pandemic. but i can't ignore something that's right in front. my face, something that, that a friend is telling me about. they've experienced it. and i, i don't even know what i say. what i look at numbers, they have to read the very carefully to know that they're actually accurate patients. so many patients,
3:40 pm
the anxiety level and it was just hard to watch. i felt as though some were anxious because they had, they had lost a loved one. they had an actual physical laws. they had lost a grandparent. and all of what was put on us is blaming and shaming. la if anyone was going out, i kind of wondered if there's many children who felt guilty that could they have brought it a germ home. you know, that can certainly add to anyone anxiety. and i saw inside that happened because children wondering if their life was ever going to be normal again. and i thought behavior escalations among vulnerable populations. i'll never forget one little girl. i met that keenan was a grandmother and the there was a, it was a substance use disorder problem in the family and that and so the grandmother was carrying for her grandchild. but this,
3:41 pm
this little girl wanted to spend so much time with me and we did spend a lot of time together. but later the grandmother said to me, she's just starving for attention and we're locked up in the 2 of us. and i can't give her what she needs. and you know, she had some attentional problems and behavioral problems ahead of time. and they're all getting worse. i mean, so like the best case scenarios. everyone was suffering cases where there were already issues and problems, those problems escalated. so you know, now we've covered mental health. we've covered some behavioral health issues and physical health in for a while in the pandemic. we were all congratulating one another. you know, my kids are never sick in his grade and no one's thrown up in a year and how wonderful. and then we all started getting back to some semblance of real life. and i don't know the ill ever come out with a study on this. but it seemed to me that when kids came back and got sick, they were sicker than i've ever seen him before. in the summer of 2021,
3:42 pm
we had ramping r. s b ramping, our sd. and you know, it was like the hospitalization, level of our sd was really remarkable. in fact it in my, um, in myer area, children's hospital philadelphia. and i work for them, but i don't speak for them. but children's hospital philadelphia put on an article in the philadelphia inquirer and they announced that they were full, but they weren't full of coded what they were full of was mental health problems and packed with other respiratory illnesses. so i can't say for sure how would you ever measure it? but i sort of wondered if these children had like some immunity debt. you know, if you think about it, when you're a pregnant mom, you pass your antibodies on to your child, you're going to have more antibodies for the things that you're exposed to. so if no one saw honestly and reino virus and flu and add no virus and all the other viruses, there's hundreds of them. and then they have
3:43 pm
a baby. the baby's not going to have as many, anybody's and bored, that baby gets exposed. and wham in ho doesn't look so pretty. i saw children with respiratory illnesses that were acting like 6 month olds that got our sd, but they were $2.00 and $3.00. and i thought to myself, you know, is it possible that the normal course is you get some exposure to these things when you're younger, and if you don't get it, then you're going to pay later, you know, i guess that's one way and put it. and i certainly understand the need for shut down at the very beginning and for, you know, everyone said 2 weeks to flatten the curve and that really changed and worth it to meet. but i said, take it out into months. i kind of wonder what it did to people's immune systems physically on a very interesting to i. i knew people when i met them, they told me that they didn't even let the kids out of the house and on the back porch. and what's my so good? look at the sun white mindy. it know this is, this is not
3:44 pm
a good scenario. i'm in to be told our our youngest he came to us early on and said no, i think well in this we let him out with 3 friends as long as the parents agree, no one was sick and they all ran. they were cross country runners to tell you the truth, it had an extra fringe benefit. they became the front for him across country team with it. they made it to the one top runner made it states that year, and then the next year they all made states as teen. and i know several of them are running in college, it's it in it for them because they had that opportunity. it to actually do something it, it turned into a huge plus, and, you know, every one of those parents said to me at, out of all of my children, this child that got out is the most mentally healthy and they're physically healthier as well. and then lastly, of course, like the education, you know, if parents will mentioned this to you in passing, but you know, kids with a d, h, d lost, lost some of what they had learned. you know, children. i mean,
3:45 pm
it's really, really sad. we don't think about how much autistic children suffer, right? you know, and, but, but they do, and they need that, you know, almost constant practice to be able to thrives and, and do well. and to overcome their obstacles. they weren't getting that, you know, and, and lastly, i'll throw in the flood for the older kids, you know, the teenagers have you ever like, had someone break down a near tears and ask you if they're going to be able to go in and deep a 16 year old. i mean it's, it's like what i heard from people, you know, young young men and women asking, are we ever going to be able to have a normal college experience and watching what you brought up, you know, like the graduations we just had to this year. we were very lucky with our son graduated 2017 high school and that her daughter 2019. and then we didn't have
3:46 pm
another graduation until this past year and it was been amazing of that. and our oldest then graduated from college. so we missed all the graduation stuff, but our 2019 graduate coven shut down her freshman year. and you know, i feel like for those kids and then the kids all applying to colleges to became an issue to. there were so many losses, so many obstacles and it's easy to say, well, that's nothing you know compared to the loss of life, but i guess in that you can't compare and i would never take away someone's horrific loss of life with a loved one. but were children going to school in all cases or having a choice to go to school? would that accelerated loss of life among those children themselves? i don't think so. thank you, dr. math for joining us. that we have just heard from a medical perspective,
3:47 pm
3:48 pm
i couldn't visit them being held hostage by a phone. i would try to do that. joy, that will resist any kind of compromise, any crush any any. and then and to war and you lost territorial losses. i remind me to mix up be able to succeed with the joggers archipelago home, and she goes to san diego garcia, the largest island in the archipelago is now the location of a very large u. s. military base. you get given med, div our i to the u. s. government to make a military base and just deported all of the people from their country so they can return back on the island. no, but we are fighting let's i, i'm fat. we are fighting for the. c
3:49 pm
we do not consider the right to self determination actually applies to the trickle students. i don't the question of self dissemination. the legal advice we've received is actually the goal since we're not and are not a people for me to move on and see what we can do for the committee to return back home. there is no support from the united nation. i commission initially don't care about checklist and people oh, welcome back here on 360 view, we want to give the audience the full view of the subject since the name. now we have just heard from patricia and who believes the effects of the color policies on children class for many years. join me now is dr. steven taylor, a professor and clinical psychologist in the department of psychiatry at the
3:50 pm
university of british columbia and vancouver, canada. doctors, tenants work, focuses unexciting disorders and related clinical conditions. now i'm a psychology appendix. thanks for joining dr. taylor. all right, thank you. now knowing everything we know about the corner virus today, were decisions made regarding policy and rules with any consideration. the impact it would have on development and mental health a given what was know at the time, i think the policies were fine with regard to mosque wearing and in particular. but of course, for a, for a lot of these things kind of 19, there are a lot of uncertainties. it's difficult to extrapolate what happened during the spanish route for example, ever century ago to, to kind of 19 so clearly a lot of research was needed to be done, including research, to determine the, the safety efficacy and tolerability of face masks in young kids. and you feel like the younger generations filling security in the future has been lost. i mean their
3:51 pm
entire lives basically came to a halt and were changed almost overnight. what kind of impact can this have? yes, on the one hand, we know that the human beings, i and kids, in particular highly resilient, that people are highly resilient to stresses and people do tend to bounce back. but with coven 19, it's not clear what will happen in terms of the long term impact on children. there's. there's no evidence of a long term impact so far, but covert 19 is just one of a number of stresses that kids have experienced. of course have been all kinds of other things happening to them, including climate change and all kinds of other things. so only time will tell but, but at the moment it looks like it's not clear that cobra will have any lasting negatively impact on kids. now, do you believe when looking at your research around patients? that there is a correlation which can be drawn between the coven policies,
3:52 pm
which were put in place and the rise and teen suicide, and even drug use, right? it's hard to tie these things down to any one particular thing. i mean, of course, rising drug use can, is going to teen suicide. and, and often in these cases, it's really difficult to determine what was actually the cause or even indeed, whether it wasn't suicide or an accidental overdose. now, any your research were there countries that you saw who handled the pandemic better all in regards the overall health of the young? that's a really good question for some countries that seem to do really well. what use dealing for example? it's way easier to manage a pandemic in a country that's the size of a mid sized american city that has a boundary by the sea. so for some, some countries that was inherently easier to manage the pandemic then other countries. so. so again, that, that's a really difficult question to ask. now, i'm not sure there any clear answers as to whether one country has done better for
3:53 pm
young people than, than other countries. again, it's an issue. the only time will tell my guess is that most countries will come out roughly the same in terms of the impact on cobra cobra, on young people. and we are seeing the obvious development stages of falling mass cover. just concerns about whether this either there's been effects had been largely not identified yet, which could also lead to issues down the road. i think the biggest concern the masked with school closure and kids having to get their education via zoom. i think that's likely to have a bigger impact asks because as you say, it interrupts with not only their education but their socialization and social child, social and emotional development. fortunately, that was for a brief period of time. it's hard to say whether that has had any impact on kids. again, like to reiterate kids a highly resilient and do tend to bounce back from adversities and so far there's
3:54 pm
no clear evidence of any negative impact by the mosque or school closures on kids. but again, it's really too early to tell, even going back to the issue, obtain suicide is again too early to tell that they're worldwide. the research on suicide has been a lot all over the place during cobit, some studies have found an increase on a decrease. i'm no change if covert is anything like say, saas, all the spanish flu, we won't know about the impact on suicide until some years afterwards. so looking into the future, do you believe that mental health will play more of a role in decision making? if we are to have another global health crisis in the future, nobody remembers the hysteria back in the 1980s where they were major mental health problems and all kinds of confusion and misconceptions. around h i v. and now we come to coven 19, and the mental health situation is no better. my, my worry is that after curb has gone up to code, has become endemic,
3:55 pm
and no longer of great concern. people will go return to focus on other things like climate change or other sorts of things will leave mental health behind. so that's my concern. the, the things that we've done for mental health during cove and should be preserved and perpetuated in the future. things like a healthful internet by risa resources are very important now and for the future. so how does one psychologically prepare for a pandemic both as an adult and as a child? well, there are so many uncertainties is actually a very good document for the w h. i just published, i was involved in some mine away on predicting future pandering or all kinds of uncertainties. i think the big thing for preparation for pandemic cent, for other sorts of series will to improve your tolerance wrong certainty because that's one of the big issues is so many uncertainties that there are cognitive behavioral methods for people to improve their tolerance from certainty. and to
3:56 pm
improve their stress little it's not just for a future pandemic, but for all the other sorts of challenges ahead such as those associated with climate change. thank you for joining us. dr. children not look to their parents to make decisions for them. so we get right in the case of handling the pandemic time is revealing the adults in the room got it wrong. physical, mental and emotional as well. social development was greatly reduced by the blanket protocols put in place on the name of public health. those who were questioning the science behind putting a piece of cloth over half the face were sadly demonized. even the most for parents themselves. who could see the real time damage being done to their children. damage for a virus which affected less than one percent of their population at the time a number which is just a small fraction of youth who decided to take their own life. sadly, during the pandemic, 2 weeks to stop the spread turned into 2 years. for many and sadly it could turn
3:57 pm
into 20 years before we know the full consequences. never before have we seen a time where the long term effects on children became the least of all concerns. yet the restrictions and rules which placed seniors in isolation, mixed infected patients in high risk places like nursing homes, delayed care, and testing denied co treatments which worked and put many on ventilators, only amplified the problems. so where these restrictions are really about protecting public health or protecting certain people's wealth. well, unfortunately, it is the next generation who will be left to pay the bill. i'm sky now he is, and this has been your 360 view of the news affecting you for watching. ah huh. ah. in the least counter russian
3:58 pm
state, a little narrative i've studied as i told them to ignore some scheme. div s. mm hm . then i can also send up for a group in the 55 with this being. okay, so mine is gonna be the one else with we will ban in the european union, the kremlin media machine, the state on russia for date, and c, r t spoke neck. even our video agency, roughly all band on youtube. and finished with comment which you did you think it request with ashley sounds, safety and embraces naziism as a juice. all of
3:59 pm
a sudden you're placing the position. i can defend myself. now i don't know to be afraid anymore. on one hand, i'm terrified that they're going to find that i'm jewish, but on the other, i think it's so far away. i distinctly remember my mom sitting me down one night and her st. john, they're going to hurry. one guy hunched me behind my ear when i heard somebody shot now in the rest. and the punch was a started flying and somebody shouted out, died, you boy died. and at that point i knew pearson, i remember, had an indian doctor. they came in and looked and said, there's no medical reason why you should be alive to find something to believe. john story is a story of ho story, victory, and whatever i can do. to help him, i would go with
