The harm in masking children and restricting their mobility leads to more long term harm for them than COVID
Much has been said or written about whether or not school children should be vaccinated, wear masks, and attend on-site classes. Many voices on the right say that children’s propensity for contracting the virus and having any lingering ill-effects is rather small.
