Angus do you and your wife mask your kids out in public? It is a simple question
Agree 100%.
To everyone else, forgive me for asking Angus a serious questions, but I am really interested in understanding the anti-school mask perspective.
Is there harm in making children wear masks in school? Seems like applying the precautionary principle here, that while uncertainty remains lets do anything that might help, is the smart move. So, masks in schools may not do a lot, but they might help so we should use them unless some harm is demonstrated; a small probability of benefit out weights a zero probability of harm.
Get ready for Anus to play pediatric psychologist.
Also note that Europe gotcha (true or not) was only for kids 5 and under.
I feel really bad for my 6 y/o nephew. He has severe anxiety, OCD and a really nervous stomach...He puked just about every day last year in school because of his mask.
That said, despite my bias watching my little buddy suffer, masks seem to a no brainer for kids sitting in a classroom with 30 other kids.
Is this the same Hawaii where schools are following the science??
Must be TONS of Trump voting rubes in Hawaii.
Thx, pubs
Geez RD, that's terrible. Here's hoping he finds his way.
Hawaii has the lowest COVID death rate of all 50 states, and it's not even close. The absolute lowest, 50/50. This is despite having a higher average age than the US average and the native population of those in Hawaii having high rates of obesity and diabetes.
Point still stands?
you know what else happened in June? Hawaii finally relaxed their brutal travel restrictions. Weird.
Was talking to someone this weekend about the vaccine- they said that they had faith that it would just work out naturally. That the body is an amazing machine that will handle it as it was designed. And I'm thinking, 'soooooo.....what then, I guess we shouldn't have invented penicillin? Or the polio vaccine? Just let whatever happens happen because it's God's will and it'll all just sort itself out?'
And this is an otherwise intelligent, successful, well-educated person. Like it's the Twilight Zone or something. It's just staggering
