[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For everyone saying, kids don't get covid outdoors or on the playground...the one time I took my masked kid to a playground in the fall he got a cold, which he gave to the rest of the family.

At the time, we were working at home, doing virtual schooling,  and hadn't been inside a store or visited with anyone for a few weeks. 95% of the kids on the playground were masked.

So you absolutely CAN get something on a playground if you are there for a while with other kids around. The chances are not high, but they exist.[/quote]

[b]You cannot get Covid outside[/b]. So what if he got a cold? I bet he was masked.[/quote]

Yes you can. It’s less likely, but close proximity and lack of wind are conducive to COVID spread.[/quote]

Show me a study that shows outdoor transmission happens without indoor mixing.

It’s practically impossible. You are more likely to die while masked en route to the playground.[/quote]

Kids stand close to each other. If someone with COVID spits in your face you get COVID. What’s so hard to understand?[/quote]

Sorry but your article only states that a wet mask is ineffective. So the kid with spit in his mask has a mask that doesn’t work at all. Next time try to find a study that shows outdoor spread.[/quote]

There are at list 7 articles cited. Next time try opening the other ones and read the commentary on each.[/quote]
