Sounds like your kids are too young to handle a mask. My 9 & 10 year old wear them just fine and nobody in our family has caught Covid thankfully. Once the kids are able to get vaccinated then things will be better but with limited child trials for kids under 12 I don’t think we’ll be getting the vaccine approved before school has been in session awhile. A mask is a part of a dress code. If you can find some scientific evidence that they hurt your child or that they aren’t effective then prove scientists wrong. I heard all last year that the CO2 levels would kill us and I haven’t seen or heard of a single mask related death.From a parent of 3, 5 and under, you can go Fawk yourself. Not even close to the same thing as a dress code and staying at home isn't an option for working class people. BTW we tried it your way last year and the our kids got Covid anyways. Why? because putting a mask on a toddler and expecting them to be compliant is retarded.
The Delta variant is 1200 times the viral load of the Alpha variant...... thus cloth masks are complete garbage and are just creating more issues developmentally for kids and from a disease standpoint they are probably just a breeding ground for other viruses. The only thing that works is the vaccine.
