[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was one unmasked little kid (about 5-6 years old) with unmasked parents on the playground today. He was coughing non-stop and not distancing. We had to leave. I don’t see how being near him, albeit outdoors, is safe.[/quote]

Would a mask change that? No one is arguing that sick kids should not stay home.[/quote]

Mask would prevent larger spit droplets landing on the other kids. It’s physics.

With the allergy season many people would need to stay home. Colds and cough can go on forever. Masks help. [/quote]

This is the real rationale behind masking, even indoors. The poors have to go to work when they are sick. So we give them cloth masks instead of paid leave. Shockingly this solution came from the Dems...[/quote]
This leads to a good point.  Perhaps before we rush willy-nilly into unmasking as a nation, studies should be conducted regarding the economic and social effects of masks on various demographic groups.  Maybe we’ll find that unmasking doesn’t make sense from an economic or other perspective.[/quote]
