Nepo Knows Best: Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck Daughter Violet Demands Mass Masking During U.N. Address

by Simon Kent

Violet Affleck, the 19-year-old undergraduate daughter of Hollywood’s Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, addressed the United Nations on Tuesday and demanded an immediate return of personal masks to combat coronavirus.

The first-year student at Yale’s Davenport College was appearing as part of an event titled Healthy Indoor Air: A Global Call to Action.

She was introduced as “a youth advocate, [the] voice of gen Z, [a] climate champion and [a] clean indoor air advocate” and wore a K95 mask plus goggles for the entire time she stood at the U.N. podium.

Violet used her moment in the spotlight to decree it was essential to remain wearing masks even now, some five years after the coronavirus first spread around the planet after its debut in China.

She told the U.N. the world has dropped masks far too quickly and warned coronavirus still represents a clear and present danger.

“It is neglect of the highest order to look children in the eyes and say, ‘We knew how to protect you, and we didn’t do it,’” the Ivy League student said, according to the Daily Mail.
