[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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.

I have read many studies on outdoor transmission. All cases included indoor mixing. Why can’t you point to one?
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][/quote]

None of the studies show outdoor transmission without indoor mixing. Show me one that does. The outdoor mask mandates come from the same people who insisted on school closures. Out of an abundance of caution...[/quote]

Which one of those studies cites showed indoor mixing? Please show.[/quote]
