Yes, there are.
 
But first, we can just use intuitive common sense and experience. Anything that flouts our natural design can be expected to diminish health and full function. By wearing ear muffs we impede hearing. With glasses, we weaken the eyes. By eating faux food we create the spate of modern degenerative diseases. By taking allopathic medicines hundreds of thousands die needlessly. By wearing clothes we prevent the sun from generating vitamin D in the skin which is critical to immunity and a wide range of metabolic functions.

Similarly, by impeding the free flow of air into the nose and mouth we are not saved from anything and we set the stage for a host of health consequences.
 
Masks are just another example of our perennial self-destructive hubris of thinking we know better than mother nature.
 
Masks Are Ineffective
 
CDC—In a study, 70.6% of people with COVID-19 who always wear a mask got sick. Only 7.8% of those who rarely or never wore a mask got sick.

The National Bureau of Economic Research—contact tracing, lockdowns, quarantines, and mask mandates have not affected overall virus transmission rates.

Dr. Fauci—Mixed messages, if not incompetence, has been portrayed by America's ostensible guru on pandemics. In March, he correctly stated that masks are ineffective, only offering a false sense of security. Now, he advises a federal mask mandate using cloth masks, the least effective mask of all.
 
Dr. Atlas—the top adviser in the government on responses to the COVID-19 pandemic: "The public-health leadership have failed egregiously, and they're killing people with their fear-inducing shutdown policies . . . The lockdowns will go down as an epic failure of public policy by people who refuse to accept they were wrong . . . didn’t know the data, didn’t care. And it became a frenzy of stopping COVID-19 cases at all costs, and those costs are massive . . . We’re creating a generation of neurotic children, forcing them to wear masks and be six feet apart from their friends, or not even have school in person."
 
COVID-19 Virus Is Too Small to Mask Filter—C19 at 5 microns is 30x smaller than an N95 mask will block. Most research proving the ineffectiveness of masks has been done on influenza. Since that virus is about half the size of the C19 virus, those proofs are doubly true for C19.
 
Zero Chance of Getting C19—from an asymptomatic C19 carrier without a mask. In a study, 455 people negative for C19 were exposed for four to five days to asymptomatic C19 carriers. None of the 455 became infected. This makes masks pointless for asymptomatic people.

Facemask Dangers

• Dr. Meehan conducted an evidence-based scientific analysis of masks. It showed that not only should healthy people not be wearing masks, but they could be harmed as a result. https://www.meehanmd.com/blog/2020-10-10-an-evidence-based-scientific-analysis-of-why-masks-are-ineffective-unnecessary-and-harmful
  
  
• Dr. Blaylock concludes that masks pose serious risks to the healthy. https://www.citizensforfreespeech.org/blaylock_face_masks_pose_serious_risks_to_the_healthy
  
  
• Children forced to wear masks for long periods could experience mental and psychological repercussions, and at least 17 physical risks are also posed by wearing masks. https://www.rt.com/op-ed/505089-lockdowns-masks-children-develop
  
  
• Masks collect and colonize viruses, bacteria, and mold.
  
  
• Face masks are contraindicated for anyone with pre-existing medical conditions and disabilities.
  
  
• Masks increase the risk of contracting all respiratory infections.
  
  
• A face mask makes the exhaled air go into the eyes and backflow concentrate pathogens in the nose and into the brain.
  
  
• Masks contain friable fiber materials that are inhaled into deep lung tissue setting the stage for a variety of respiratory pathologies. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/344360277_Masks_false_safety_and_real_dangers_Part_1_Friable_mask_particulate_and_lung_vulnerability
  
  
• Masks can lead to the proliferation of cavity organisms and periodontitis (gum disease) which can lead to organ pathologies as well as premature labor and low-birth-weight infants. >J Nat Sci Biol Med. 2010 Jul-Dec; 1(1): 40–42. https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/mask-mouth-dentists-warn-prolonged-use-of-masks-leading-to-poor-oral-hygiene
  
  
• If you notice a feeling of stuffiness and lack of breath while wearing a mask, there's good reason. Masks reduce blood oxygen levels by as much as 20%, leading to hypoxia. By reducing oxygen inflow and carbon dioxide outflow, also known as suffocation, facemask hypoxia can lead to or exacerbate:

Loss of consciousness
Immune system impairment
Behavioral disorders
Clumsiness
Dizziness
Lightheadedness
Drowsiness
Inattentiveness
Confusion
Poor judgment
Memory loss
Vision changes
Heart rate aberrations
Shortness of breath

Rapid breathing
Coughing
Wheezing
Mobility problems
Cancer
Diabetes
Heart attacks
Neurodegenerative diseases
Chronic kidney disease
Seizures
Shortened life
Coma
Death

Moreover, many viruses enter cells more easily when arterial oxygen levels decline. Facemasks thus increase vulnerability to C19 and other viruses and can result in symptoms characteristic of C19. In other words, facemasks are more likely to cause C19 disease than prevent it.

Instead of policies that actually make sense, obey facts, and protect freedoms the government, media, Big Tech, and Big Pharma have focused on censoring the free flow of information and punishing those who don't comply. Medpage Today: Mask Hysteria: Are We Going Too Far? — Kevin Campbell believes media and politicians use masking as a way to fear monger
 
Finally, a word to those who strongly object to people not wearing masks. If you believe a mask protects you and you are wearing one, there should be nothing to fear from someone not wearing one. If you believe by wearing a mask you are not transmitting disease, those who do not wear them have nothing to fear from you.
