[quote=Anonymous]Do you honestly think you are saving lives by masking your two year old? Even in elementary, middle, and high school the benefits are modest. Don’t believe me, look at the data during high community spread. https://statsiq.co1.qualtrics.com/public-dashboard/v0/dashboard/5f78e5d4de521a001036f78e#/dashboard/5f78e5d4de521a001036f78e?pageId=Page_ffb4dc52-5543-46b2-8126-2b7229fd1b17 Now, think about masking kids who lick their masks or put them back on without washing their hands. In fact, I bet a daycare worker has helped your kid with his/her mask without washing their hands first. Moms on this thread are admitting to sending their kids into the world with poorly fit masks. Show me data that masking 2-4 year olds is of any benefit. There is a reason the WHO recommends against masking kids under 5. [/quote] I’m not here to debate the efficacy of masks for a 2 yo. I have no idea if it is saving lives or is just pandemic theater. We mask because it is required to do the things we want. The other option is to keep my 2 yo at home or send her to some other school that doesn’t require masks. We aren’t willing to do either, so we mask. She gets to attend the school she loves, socialize with all her little friends, and live like a normal kid because she wears a piece of cloth over her mouth and nose. I’ll take that over keeping my kid miserable and at home until whenever the powers that be call the pandemic over. [/quote]
