You can ask anything. I don’t mind at all. I think we are better off asking one question (or so) at a time however.
My answer. I don’t know.
My question back. In your scenario does me wearing a mask prevent my children from dying?

An elevation of 30 BPM (from 80 to 110) is expected in daily, non-exercise activity - such as walking. An additional population-wide tax of 10 BPM is definitely clinically significant.
To quantify this, look to seasonal fluctuation of mortality. It is not solely due to fast viral replication in moderate temperature - there are independent pathways which may be even more significant. In particular, the sympathetic nervous system is chronically stressed by the burden of thermal regulation - and perhaps seasonal changes in diet, activity, sunlight exposure, etc. The additional stress displays in SNS-related indices, particularly blood pressure, as well as the easier-to-measure heart rate:

These mean curves coincide with mortality at North American latitudes - and indeed have much less range than your supposedly insignificant 10 BPM.
To be clear, I don't think mask mandates are dangerous in this regard -- simply because, in practice, masks get pulled before the slightest provocation to heart rate. Also clear: you aren't familiar with thresholds of harm in the context of public health.
I agree. The reason people with highly limited statistical chances of dying from Covid are pushing for all the restrictions, masks, lockdowns, is that they are themselves afraid of being in the struck-by-lightning percentile that drop dead. For some reason, it's mostly dudes aged 30-50.
Can you answer me this, why do you care about theses cancer diagnoses? Aren't a lot of these people likely to die anyway therefore treating their cancer pointless? If you were to remain consistent in your viewpoints that statement would need to be correct. You can believe what you want, just be consistent with your logic and stop crying your crocodile tears.
Since the disease we are talking about is not a threat to children, I certainly hope my 5 year old son has been exposed to COVID-19. I am pretty sure he has but I'm not certain so I simply hope. You see, humans must be exposed to pathogens. From the time we come out of our mother we are exposed to pathogens constantly. It's a necessary part of developing the immune system required to live and flourish on this planet.
I do not feel anything toward anyone that exposed me to the pathogens I've been exposed to. There is no logical reason to feel anything. There was no negligence.
However, If people infected with a disease that is potentially deadly to the elderly and those with weakened immune systems were ordered to go to adult care facilities to recuperate, that's another matter. Adult care facilities are often populated with the elderly and others at high risk. If something ridiculous like an authoritarian were to order infected people to go ride out their disease in those locations, that'd be of concern. If that were to happen I would suggest that authoritarian has possibly committed negligent homicide.
There are risks associated with being alive that end in death. Relative to to cancer, heart disease, and essentially everything else, COVID-19 is trivial, and it would already have been gone had the Karens of the world remained fixated on Lifetime and flavored coffee, as they should have. The fact that I see further than the end of my coffee table does not mean that I don't know about death, you silly girl.
Just plain old homicide. He needs to die for justice to be served.
