You have to think about the size here. My adult lungs have the power to exhale more vigorously than a 6 year old. In other words, for a child, it’s like putting a pillow over his face.
In addition, the quarantine of children may negatively affect their development of immune systems. Research by two professors found that keeping children masked, however necessary, could undermine their bodies’ ability to learn how to fight pathogens.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, the world is unwittingly conducting what amounts to the largest immunological experiment in history on our own children...
Memory T cells begin to form during the first years of life and accumulate during childhood. However, for memory T cells to become functionally mature, multiple exposures may be necessary, particularly for cells residing in tissues such as the lung and intestines, where we encounter numerous pathogens. These exposures typically and naturally occur during the everyday experiences of childhood — such as interactions with friends, teachers, trips to the playground, sports — all of which have been curtailed or shut down entirely during efforts to mitigate viral spread. As a result, we are altering the frequency, breadth and degree of exposures that are crucial for immune memory development.[1]
Parents who make they’re kids wear masks are IDIOTS
Is that Mask Giving You Lung Cancer? It’s Criminal to Force Children to Wear Masks all Day

Based upon a German study: https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-124394/v1 Excerpt:
Many children are subject to great challenges and families try to master these as best they can. While the proportion of people tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 and also the number of intensive care patients in Germany is high in many places, we report here on a relatively small, unrepresentative problem: several thousand children who seem to suffer from wearing the mask or who may experience health problems from the mask. Our study provides the basis for a representative survey on which a precise benefit-risk analysis of mask wearing in children can be built.
A precise benefit-risk analysis is urgently required. The occurrence of reported side effects in children due to wearing the masks must be taken seriously and requires a precise clarification of the accompanying health circumstances, the situation of wearing the mask (duration, breaks and mask type) and the school situation
Certainly engenders a great deal of resentment in me!
Yet we have the likes or Dr. Fauci, etc., telling us that being masked for hours a day “does no harm” and “doesn’t affect one’s oxygen level.”
I was in a hair salon for about 60 minutes, forced to wear a mask the entire time - walked to my car and doubled over, luckily, I was able to grab the door handle before I hit the pavement. Ripped off my mask and recovered almost immediatly - now I never go anywhere where I’m forced to wear a mask for more than a few minutes. I know what happened to my was hypoxia from oxygen depravation.
How is that good for children - especially when they face so little risk from COVID?
At least they didn’t catch a cold...
And unless you are outfitted with lab mask, masks don’t work. They just let the particles through in a spread out pattern. And loose fitting ones turn the tiny openings where the mask doesn’t fit tight into air jets; sending exhaled vapors farther, usually up, so the microscopic particles have farther to fall. I saw a fellow walking to his car a couple of days ago, removing his glasses because they were fogged up.
And people wearing them, alone in their cars; give me a break....
Adults who wear masks are either ignorant or thieves.

‘The occurrence of reported side effects in children due to wearing the masks must be taken seriously...’
nonsense; all that matters is that everybody do useless virtue signalling as per diktat...it’s the ‘courteous’ thing to do, don’t you know...?
Issues to be considered...
“While analyzing lung microbes of 83 untreated adults with lung cancer, the research team discovered that colonies of Veillonella, Prevotella, and Streptococcus bacteria, which may be cultivated through prolonged mask wearing, are all found in larger quantities in patients with advanced stage lung cancer than in earlier stages.”
Although Studies also state prolonged massk usage does Not lead to lung cancer. But...
Kids don’t even get sick from covid. Politicians and the teachers union are not going to let this go away. They derive way too much power from this. Read the damn mask box! It says, in bold letters, the mask will not stop viruses, including the one that causes Covid-19. Stop wearing masks. It is a false sense of security and it makes you look like a sheep. If you’re 80 and have respiratory issues, deal accordingly. Stop putting masks on children. It is abuse, not healthcare. I’m 63 and choose not to be masked. Not taking their experimental “vaccine” either.
When this happens to me, I remove the mask, not the glasses.
Shame on the mask nazis
This is not a study.
If they found truth, it was not through scientific method.
I went to Pubmed, the database where medical research publications are catalogued, and searched "children face mask covid." I found some interesting articles:
The impact of face masks on children - a mini review. Excerpt: "Only one study, performed with N95 respirators, collected medical parameters and this did not suggest any harmful effects of gas exchange. The eight adult studies, including four prompted by the pandemic and one on surgeons, reported that face masks commonly used during the pandemic did not impair gas exchange during rest or mild exercise."
And this article suggests that the measures taken to control the spread of Covid-19 are also helping to curb other diseases: Bronchiolitis in COVID-19 times: a nearly absent disease?. Excerpt: "Bronchiolitis is a clinically diagnosed viral infection of the lower respiratory tract, and causes a yearly seasonal wave of admissions in paediatric wards worldwide. We counted 92,5% less bronchiolitis hospitalisations in Antwerp before the expected end of the peak this year (of which only 1 RSV positive), as compared to the last 3 years. Furthermore, there was a >99% reduction in the number of registered RSV cases in Belgium."
Also, I can't see a downside to teaching children that they can spread disease through their breath. One aspect of raising children is to teach them about disease transmission.
I highly suggest checking out the sources before posting scare articles such as this one. When there is no mention of where the information was supposedly published, the validity of the article is suspect.
Think about masks. So many people claim that masks won't stop a virus, but a virus is many thousands of times larger than a gas molecule. So the notion that a mask can't stop a virus but it can impair breathing contradicts itself. [In fact, masks do stop or slow viruses but the space between threads is ample to let air through.]
