Violet Affleck, daughter to Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, speaking to the L.A. County Board of Supervisors: "One in 10 infections leads to long #COVID19, which is a devastating neurological [and] cardiovascular illness that can take away people's ability to work, move, see, and even think... The county must oppose mask bans for any reason. They do not keep us safer, they make vulnerable members of our community less safe."
