Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner’s daughter calls for mask mandates at UN due to ‘ongoing pandemic’

The daughter of Hollywood bigwigs Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner delivered a speech to the United Nations about the importance of mask mandates in preventing the surge of COVID-19 — five years after the disease shut down the world.

Violet Affleck, 19, made her emotional plea while wearing a KN95 mask as part of the “Healthy Indoor Air: A Global Call to Action” at the UN Headquarters in New York on Tuesday.

The Yale University freshman, who contracted a post-viral condition in 2019, lectured world leaders about how the world is ignoring the “ongoing pandemic” and claimed mask mandates were dropped too quickly.

Violet also criticized the “adults” for their “relentless beat of ‘back to normal’” — claiming that they’re “ignoring, downplaying, and concealing both the prevalence of airborne transmission and the threat of Long Covid manifested in a series of choices.”

“We are told by leaders across the board that we are the future,” Violet said. “But, when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.

“Young people lacked both real choice in the matter and information about what was being chosen for us,” she added.

Her remarks fly in the face of some research – including one major study from the Cochrane Library — that ultimately found masks made “little to no difference” in curbing the spread of COVID.

Still, Violet argued that evidence showed SARS-CoV-2 is transmitted through the air and can persist in indoor environments, and that “one infection can result in disabling damage to almost every cell in the body from the brain and heart to the nerves and blood vessels.”

“We are told by leaders across the board that we are the future,” Violet said. “But, when it comes to the ongoing pandemic, our present is being stolen right in front of our eyes.”
