New York Daily News ^ | JUL 24, 2021 | DR. ADAM RATNER and DR. PERRI KLASS

Posted on 07/25/2021 6:11:24 AM PDT by artichokegrower

In-person school really matters. Children need their teachers, and they need their friends and classmates. As pediatricians, this is one lesson that we’ve learned over and over through this complicated and difficult pandemic year. There is real value to learning with children and teachers together in the classroom. Kids need us to keep schools open and safe this fall, and they need us to do it right, which is going to mean masks.

No, we don’t. They are only infinitesimally at risk to covid-19.

The masks hold so many more germs they are detrimental.

Let me help you with the science of masks.


If you lobbied heavily for carbon dioxide to be treated as a pollutant, yet you want kids to wear masks and force them to inhale extra carbon dioxide ... you might be a Democrat.

Masks are fomites.

Likely not for CoupFlu, but for plenty of other nasty bugs.

“ And although it’s rare, children truly can become severely ill from COVID”

So they admit that it is rare for a child to get COVID. Then why the mask mandate?

Our kinder and pre-k babies were all maskless last year for the entire year with a few exceptions. Zero cases. There were some who had to quarantine due to family members with virus.

If you graduate at the bottom of your class, you can still call yourself a ‘doctor’. These authors are exhibit A.

The only reference to an actual scientific study showed masks are insignificant in preventing the spread of a virus.

Yes, but every molecule of carbon dioxide that your child inhales is one less molecule that will be released into the atmosphere and contribute to global warming. One must think of the greater good.

They are the best source of herd immunity right now. They aren’t dying and they aren’t winding up in a hospital. The big boys are being totally cruel....thanks to Fauci and his bootlickers and CDC and the Dem governors.

I doubt it...it stinks of some leftist that thinks it is ok to casually impose extreme policies, even on children, to make THEM feel better.

Masks do not work. Masks breed bacteria. Kids need to see each other, it’s a huge part of social development.

“Must teach them to obey at an early age.”

That’s what this is ALL about — government control of the masses.

With this Covid ‘proof of concept’ action, gov said “Bend over.” and sheeple said “How far?” We failed, greatly.

Anyone that hasn’t read the book 1984...read it now!
