@RebelGeek99 well it's a symptom of public health officials actively blurring the line between health and politics, really spoiling public faith in those institutions as the public has lost faith in so many others.

It's not that access to safe clean air is political. It's that public health officials blurred the lines politicizing the ways to get to that goal.

Or to put it a different way, everybody agrees that access to safe clean air is a good thing. That is not political. But the methods to get people safe clean air was politicized by public health officials, and it's going to be hard to recover from that.
