A group of demonstrators gathered outside the Utah State Capitol Saturday afternoon to make their voices heard in support of public health orders and mask mandates.

Those who spoke included doctors, activists and parents — but it was students and teachers who took center stage.

"We're just really grateful for the voices that have spoken up today, for the people who have come and contributed," said Chris Phillips, a co-founder of Utah Concerned Coalition."There are people here who are interested in protecting our kids and protecting our communities and making sure that we can keep our community open and moving forward.

"Children have lost parents. They've lost aunts and uncles. They've lost grandparents," Gatrell added."And I know that because they're missing school for these funerals."

Look, a bunch of people wearing masks outside. Trust the science they say. 🤦‍♂️

These are the paranoid mainstream media believers who came from out of state to try to screw Utah just like they did with CA and NY

CDC reporting the natural infection is very good and quite durable. Get a vaccine, then get infected. Let this virus run it's course. STOP WITH THIS MASK MANDATE CRAP!!!!!!

😂😂😂😂 fredooomm, they want to be caged in tell them to go to Australia 😂😂 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸sheep

Good. The smart ones.

With mask mandates, strict vaccine passports, vaccine mandates and 95+% masking compliance, Los Angeles County has reported more COVID cases in the past month than it did in all of 2020 How does anyone still think government mandates make any difference whatsoever?

That is a misnomer. They don't want public health decisions free of politics they only want public health decisions to be made that agree with their opinions (politics).

Just take the mask off and tell them to stick it in their hind in they can't force you if you don't just take it off and stand up for yourself you don't have the guts to even do anything about it. Take the mask off stand up for yourself say no

Because people like utah parents united are in UtahSenateGOP utahhousereps JStuartAdams johnforutah LincolnFillmore pockets. All on Ed committee and they removed Derek kitchen so they could push through. UPU got majority of speakers too.

Idiots!!

If you wear a mask outside it show you know nothing about science, and your opinion is not valid.

I'm sure Governor Cox will take the mask mandate into consideration just like he took the zoning maps put forth by the independent committee into consideration right before he threw them in the trash. The mask mandate isn't coming back. They don't care what Utahns think.

Group rallying at Utah State Capitol in support of removing politics from public healthWhen a virus is infecting people all over the world, what is the government's role in making health decisions that impact everyone? It's a battle that has been playing out in Utah recently when the legislature overturned mask mandates passed by Salt Lake and Summit Counties. ALSO: Utah Sen. Mitt Romney tests positive for COVID-19. JimSpiewak Antivaxx ppl who made up that it was political to delay doing what’s best for society, when politics have never been a factor 🙄 JimSpiewak The role is offering vaccines and masks for free. That’s it. Not controlling anything. JimSpiewak I'd swear the Utah Legislature truly wants to kill us! Between their laws protecting the out-of-control Omicron variant, the toxic air, and summer heat & drought - Utah citizens are suffering. Feels like we're hostages rather than citizens!
