"Mask Choice" Assembly Person Allard Suggests Dunbar Endangered Senior Citizens
The far-right, eager to distract from their efforts to minimize the COVID-19 pandemic, the efficacy of vaccines, and attempts by Bronson supporter and Eagle River Assembly Person Jamie Allard to rid the Anchorage School District of its universal mask mandate, is now disingenuously suggesting that Anchorage Assemblyman Forrest Dunbar may have jeopardized the health of senior citizens.
Allard, who fabricated her own Facebook deplatforming, defended Nazi terminology and promoted "mask choice," likely ensuring the continued spread of infectious diseases throughout Anchorage, claims that Assemblyman Forrest Dunbar told her he was sick on Thursday. Allard says Dunbar told her she might not want to sit next to him in a work session.
Allard has worked especially hard over the past year to end emergency orders and COVID-19 mandates such as mask-wearing. She is a self-described proud member of the Save Anchorage Facebook group known for its spread of COVID-19-related misinformation.
In typical loathsome fashion, Must Read Alaska has craftily suggested, based on Allard's statements, that Dunbar, a Progressive who is a proponent of mask-wearing and stringent COVID-19 mitigation strategies designed to help curtail the spread of the virus, jeopardized the health of senior citizens at a recently held indoor barbecue at the Anchorage Senior Activity Center.
Allard, who once attended an Anchorage Assembly meeting in an ineffective crocheted mask, posted this graphic to the COVID-19 misinformation group Save Anchorage just over an hour ago.
When reached for comment and asked whether he jeopardized the health of senior citizens, Anchorage assemblyman Forrest Dunbar told me that he had a "minor cold." Dunbar says that he received a negative COVID-19 test, maintained his distance from others, and wore a mask.
Dunbar also told me that when he attended the Anchorage Senior Activity Center indoor barbecue, the event had attendees spaced out at the tables and that the group practiced social distancing.
Dunbar says that he is feeling better.
