[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My preschooler had very few illnesses between spring 2020 and spring 2021. In summer of 2021, the constant colds started coming back. Fall of 2022 was a nightmare as it was not just colds but also RSV which got us all really sick. 2023 was much better. We pretty much got through September through February unscathed.

Two factors that had absolutely no impact as these periods of illness were not remotely correlated with these policies being taken away?:

- Masking requirements in daycare
- Quarantine or isolation requirements recommended by CDC and implemented by daycare[/quote]

how old were the kids? were they all unmasking to eat snack, lunch and then nap 2 hours? if so, then yes masks won't do much[/quote]

Kids are in one spot when they eat snack, lunch and nap.  So, yes the kid who is closest to a contagious kid will be exposed.  But it's different from free play or circle time when kids are circulating and interacting with one another.

No one ever claimed that masking eliminates transmission.  It reduced it, and when there is transmission it reduced viral loads.  [/quote]
