"New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is doubling down on the state’s pandemic restrictions by imposing mask mandates on children, for which she says kids could simply adapt to better than adults.

A reporter asked: “Regarding the mass mandates. I want to know if the state has a particular number, whether that be like test positivity rate or a hospitalization rate, that when you go under that mask mandates will be lifted or is the state playing that by ear?”

“We're not playing it by ear,” replied Hochul. “We're going to be driven by data and look at what we, what our situation was prior to the mandates and assess was that the right number to go back to.” ..."

The cognitive abilities of children are being sacrificed on the alter of Western communism by the alt-far-left-democRATs.

“We’re going to be driven by data and look at what we, what our situation was prior to the mandates and assess was that the right number to go back to.”

I really despise the cliches these pols chatter like some sort of Covid Barbie Doll; “we’re data driven”, “follow the science”, “we’re all in this together”, “flatten the curve”, “listen to the science”.

Masks dont't do a damn thing -- nothing ... nada ... zilch -- to affect transmission of a respiratory virus ...
But a lot of irrationally frightened, irratrievably stupid, child abusing politicians, unelected bureaucrats and medical "experts" think they do ...
They're wrong.

Leftists can’t wait to get their hands on our children because children innocently believe those in authority.
This is their goal. Indoctrinate from youth.

Even the mohammedans are not so evil as to mask their kids.

Masks are great, especially for kids. They get lower intake of O2, increased CO2, oh, and a lot of additional bacteria. What’s not to love?

'they adapt better than adults do'

I believe Mao said the same thing about Chinese kids when he launched his revolution that killed upwards of 40 million.

“Masks dont’t do a damn thing”

virus diameter=100nm
mask pore size=500nm

Might as well try to fill a shopping cart with sand.

Fool Hochul refuses to look at the evidence that not only do the masks not work, they’re not needed as evidenced by the stadiums full of people without them.

The data is used to determine how many more compliant Lil beeches they can make...
