[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I teach preschool students. I’m happy to wear a mask. But do you think they will keep them on?! Based on how long it takes me to train them to cover their coughs and sneezes, most parents don’t bother requiring their children to do so they will be coughing and sneezing and wiping boogers all over their other classmates. I know they aren’t getting as sick as adults, but surely they will bring this home to grandma.

I miss my students, I want my own kids to go back to school, I’m all for starting in the fall with precautionary measures,but I don’t think it’ll work. We are going to  see a huge huge spike in cases in the fall and will have to shut down again.![/quote]

[b]NO, the TEACHERS wear the mask, the kids don't. [/b]

Just like--THE NURSES wear the masks.   [b]Patients don't wear masks![/b][/quote]

Well what’s the point of that?  How will it slow down the transmission if only a small fraction of the people in a building wear masks? [/quote]

Patients do wear masks.  A relative went to the ER in February, at the beginning of all this, for a non-Covid medical issue, the first thing they did was give her a mask to put on.

I think this picture demonstrates that patients do wear masks, although some other people who are above us all don't wear masks.
