[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My just turned 2 year old wears mask yesterday for 2 hours at playground, and she does not complain about it because everyone wears mask. However the mask she wear does not fit, keeps sliding down, not sure if that’s the main reason she was fine with it because it’s too breathable. I already tie knots on both ends, still a big loose.[/quote] So what is the benefit besides avoiding harassment?[/quote] My 2 yo who has been masking in public all year, including at preschool, hasn’t been sick a single time this year. My friend’s 2 yo, who doesn’t mask at school, has been sick multiple times this year with various viruses. So the masks aren’t completely useless. [/quote] Are they in the same cohort? Are you following the same precautions otherwise? DD is in preschool (masked) and hasn’t been sick all year. But, sick kids stay home, and kids wash their hands upon arrival and before dismissal. We don’t know to what extent the individual NPIs are contributing. Interestingly, although flu has essentially disappeared, rhinovirus is at normal levels. Not sure it’s actually a great thing that young kids have not been sick this year. Surely I am not the only one who is wondering what our next flu season will look like. [/quote]
