You are wrong. There are plenty complaining.
You are in an echo chamber so you can’t hear them.

And it amazes me that when a medical
professional says something that doesn’t fit what you like than all of
a sudden doctors are t reliable and science is over rated.

It’s a safe assumption. Most people understand the efficacy of masks when indoors when a highly virulent illness is circulating. No one likes them but those with an ounce of responsibility understand it’s the least you can do to protect others and is a minor sacrifice.

And it’s really only adults wringing their hands. The kids are fine. The worst adults are imposing their bizarre hostility on their children and traumatizing them.

It amazes me that you think a doctor equals epidemiologist.

I bet you’d let a family doctor perform heart surgery. After all they are both doctors.

Come back in a few weeks, OP.

I don't think people realize how high cases still are. We're still on par with the surge from last winter.

Except we’re all vaccinated, it’s a milder virus, and we have access to high quality masks. It’s not the same and it’s time end the mandate.

Get your kid vaccinated or TTS.

+1 I'm a believer in science and its time to remove the mandate. Vaccines are universally available and the risks are now similar to flu with them. Time to be done with mandates

Keep telling yourself that if it makes you feel better!
This is a parent issue and those that have had a problem (medical) have worked with schools.
These are the facts: no students or staff members are complaining

My spouse is a staff member and is miserable in masks but keeps his opinion to himself because of the covidians. A few teachers he’s close to are also so done. I also have two kids that HATE them.

Why do you assume the only way for schools to stay open is universal masking? Stick your kid in an N95 if you want, but the days of “your [cloth] mask protects me and my mask protects you” are over.

Right, and you ignore those that say masks should stay on. So is the point of this thread pointless? Or stop commenting? If someone's gonna post something people are going to disagree with, they're gonna disagree with it. Feel free to chime in too, but your morality isn't fooling anyone.

Being vaccinated didn't prevent the recent surge.

Everyone hates them but its about safety and community spread.
