[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UV rays (e.g. sunlight) are pretty good at killing any Covid on the surface of playground equipment, so by the time you show up, it's had a lot of time to do its job.

We sanitize our hands just before we get in teh car to go back home. Mine are 5 and 7. [b]We go maskless in the playground unless other kids are around, then they mask up (I just keep my distance). [/b]Our kids are in private school in-person so they're used to it as they have to wear masks at school. [/quote]

Are you saying that you, the parent, don't mask at the playground?  WTF?[/quote]

Why do you need a mask if there is no one else there? Some of y’all are insane.[/quote]

Learn to read.  She said they go maskless unless someone shows up.  Then her kids put on masks, but SHE DOES NOT.  [/quote]

If she’s truly keeping her distance, who cares?  Unless she’s in a jurisdiction where it’s the law. [/quote]

NP. Kids run around. One could run near her when she's not expecting it. Or after she moves away, someone could move into her old space while the aerosols are still lingering. It's also possible that whatever she thinks is keeping her distance isn't far enough---it's not 100% clear how far one must be at this point (six feet was a guideline to begin with, and overly simplistic now that we know it can also spread by aerosols). Sure, being outdoors makes this last point less of a concern, but wearing a mask would still help provide a little more protection in any of these scenarios.

It's socially responsible, not insane to wear a mask even when keeping your distance. It's good to do both.  [/quote]
