[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am someone very concerned about masking young children. Setting aside the potential issues with social development, which are impossible to measure, masks make it harder to hear and understand each other. We don't need a study to know that any more than we need a study to know that the sky is blue. We also know that hearing issues often cause speech delays, that's why when you enter early Intervention one of the first things they recommend is a hearing test. I am continually stunned that the CDC, MoCo and so many preschools are so obsessed with masking with no concern for the potential harms. That being said this move by the CDC has nothing to do with masking or saving money. It doesn't change who qualifies for early intervention. It gives parents and medical providers a more useful tool for [b]December dung[/b] who needs to be referred for an assessment to determine if they qualify for services.[/quote] Lol that should be "determining" [/quote]
