FACE MASKS FOREVER: Austin Public Health Wants Children to Wear Face Masks Forever in May 2023 Ad Campaign

It's the last week of May 2023 and Austin Public Health is still spending tax dollars to push anti-scientific propaganda that encourages children to engage in unhealthy behaviors that have been thoroughly discredited.

The ad encourages readers to scan a QR Code to download a free "Health Hero" digital comic coloring book.
