[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The people who are still neurotic and blathering on on socials and in public are the long-term victims of a sustained and powerful PR campaign by mainstream media and government. At the beginning, this was probably warranted, as we didn't know much... but like all government programs, it went on for far too long. We now have a legion of people who are go on spreading the gospel, and will for some time. My advice is to ignore them. They'll stop eventually.[/quote]

This makes zero sense.  Some of y’all really do some serious mental gymnastics. [/quote]

I am not the PP but they are making sense. Maybe you think they're wrong, but to say it doesn't make sense? It's absolutely true. For example, the CDC still strongly encourages 2 year olds to wear masks in all indoor spaces they share without household members if they are high risk or community levels are high, without acknowledging that:

A. Many 2 year olds are not developmentally able to wear a mask properly, and it's also difficult to find masks that properly fit them (which means that the benefit of masking in this population is minimal); and
B. Numerous health authorities across the world including the World Health Organization and the Tokyo Medical Association have expressed concerns about the developmental impacts of masks on young children (https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2022/05/16/national/masks-kids/)

The CDC dug in on young children wearing masks at the beginning of the pandemic, and now they will never reverse their position. Thankfully most now ignore them, which is good in this particular case but not great for the future of public health in general.

Where are all the people clamoring for two year olds in masks?  [/quote]

Are you not aware that the mask mandate in DC included 2 yr olds?[/quote]

Currently?[/quote]

HERE IS THE LINK AGAIN YOU LAZY P O S https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/about-face-coverings.html[/quote]

I’d love to see you talk that way to my face. I think we have found our psychopath.  [/quote]

I consider the people wanting to mask toddlers to be the psychopaths.[/quote]

Has it ever occured to you that some parents of two-year-olds may want to know if it’s safe to mask them? You might not choose it for your two year old but someone else might. And whoever wrote that crazy line above really needs anger management.  [/quote]

It wasn’t optional. If it were optional to mask two year olds, it wouldn’t bother me at all. [/quote]

DP - I agree. My child went to daycare from July 2020 on wearing various kinds of face coverings. He was 3 when it first started. They would show up in their little masks of varying protectiveness and then take them off to all eat snack together. Then they would put them back on to play until they took them off again to all eat lunch together. After lunch they would settle in for a nice 2 hours of maskless nap in the same room, only to put them on again to play outside afterwards. It was so stupid, not even counting the fact that their noses were all sticking out when they were "wearing" them. Why did we require that?![/quote]

Anyone with young children who is being honest with themselves can recognize that mask mandates for young children were completely disconnected from reality. Yet they went on for over a year. As the PP said, sure it made sense for a few months. But to just insist on continuing it and gaslighting any parents that questioned it (hello AAP) when people on the ground knew how useless it was, that is a great example of how public health authorities lost a lot of people's trust.[/quote]
