[QUOTE=OrangeBlossomBaby;2004068]Why should anyone in the Villages care about whether children are put in harm's way? Their kids are all grown.

These endless mask threads have nothing to do with The Villages, they are just ways to stir up you know what.

There's a prominent political figure in Florida arguing that last year shows that masking was not that important and so kids shouldn't be mandated to wear a mask in school. Does the fact that most kids weren't in school make that argument questionable ?

No, because they didn't learn anything, coming up on 2 years...

Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner!

Bean If I told you they were monsters underneath your bed, would you believe that too?

What about mandatory hand washing? What about mandatory tooth brushing? What about mandatory chap stick use? What about mandatory no kissing? You people are so hung up on face diapers that are never worn correctly. All Ridiculous! COVID is with us forever, so is mandatory mask wearing forever? Not for this guy!

Rather than let you know explicitly what I think of you and your post, let’s just say I disagree with the entire post

You seriously believe the CDC? There was no flu last year because everything was classified as COVID. This is all such a joke! Masks don’t work! COVID is here to stay! Let the kids breathe!

Here, Here!! Am very pleased to see your posting, congratulations.

Way out of date info. Many experts and medical research studies disagree with your opinion. And besides, children are by far the least likely to have any serious consequences of COVID - due to their excellent natural immune system. We are now having multiple and serious side effects - even deaths, from the "vaccines". Medical personnel are refusing the jabs and even losing their jobs because they have seen the risks.

There are so many that this would apply to, which one did you mean?

That is so right! Parents don’t get to opt out restraining their child in car seats or using seat belts!

Children have been harmed by not going to school, perhaps unmeasurably harmed.
I am certain that those same children continue to wear the useless masks outside of the classroom too.
These organizations lie so much, they would not know the truth if it hit them in the nose.
Mandates are a terrible idea.
People who are vaccinated get sick too.
This is coronavirus 19, meaning there are 18 that have come before it.
You are being played.

A mask mandate for children in school is necessary to slow the spread of this Covid virus. Parents should not have the ability or freedom to choose whether their child wears a mask in the classroom. That decision should not be up to the parents. Universal masking is effective only when EVERYONE (all the children and teachers) wears a mask in the classroom. Masks should be worn PROPERLY by covering the NOSE and MOUTH at all times. One reason why masking has not worked for us is that compliance of wearing masks properly is practically non existent.

This is what the CDC says about the effectiveness of Universal masking as source control.....

Nope, not buying it. The ones that make the mask rules are always caught without masks in public at parties. If you think masks work then wear one and leave me and mine alone.
Get the shot and you wont get Covid. That’s what they say!

Sorry but the CDC "science brief" is full of errors and junk observational "studies" that prove nothing. In the one RCT study cited thay really couldn't tell if any reduction was due to masks, social distancing, or handwashing. Plus they actually coached the masked villagers to social distance more during the study. Too many confounding variable to be reliable.

If you really want to understand why observational studies are junk science and why the mask mandate advocates keep using them instead of RCT studies, read this article in full.
