Chances of mask mandate in school in the fall ?

[Anonymous]

My kid only can tolerate to wear clothes mask, not disposable or n95 mask. What are the chances that there will be a mask mandate in school in the fall? I suppose if it happens, I think she wears clothes mask is better than nothing, right? Should i stock more cloth mask just in case? Or everyone buy kuds n95 or disposable masks now? She has official allergy, and I have given a copy to her school nurse 1 year ago.

Does kid need a updated allergy diagnosis for new school year to prevent sending home due to sneezing, coughing & runny nose. It was a nightmare a year ago, and they told me that she needed to be tested for covid due to covid symptoms. It was not until I got her an all season allergy diagnosis from a specialist to explain to them why she has symptoms all seasons on and off.

Zero.

But if you want your kid to wear a mask, or the kid wants to, that’s fine!

Hopefully no chance?

If it's greater than zero, the school board and/or county council better explain why there aren't other mask mandates in the county and/or restaurants & bars aren't shutting down.

The fact that school buildings get targeted is a bunch of BS.

Well, if they cared about students and teachers, they'd do this absolutely, but there are so many political regressive that are hostile to science that it seems unlikely since they will pander to them.

Thanks, that's great news.

None. There will not be mandates again. Personal responsibility, deciding to ask if you want to, that’s where we are with regard to public health policy.

It’s all politics. On the mcps website yesterday, but now removed it said they’d only do something if the state mandates it. Zero precautions so plan accordingly and stop complaining if your kid gets sick and stop with the allergies as if your kid did not have them before doubtful they start older.

Allergies can start at any time.

But many of us with kids with significant allergies, had kids with allergies before covid. It's really annoying not to be able to post about my kids' issues without constantly dealing with people accusing me of lying.

If your kids had it pre covid, your ped. should be able to write a letter but when things flair you, you should test. I have bad allergies and test when things get bad/any changes.
