Given there are 50 million children in K12 schools in the U.S., that means almost 240,000 fewer cases between masks and no masks, and that doesn't even take account of secondary transmission.
That also doesn't take into account that if a kid gets sick, one of the parents will likely be unable to work. If you're a single mom, you quit your job and get no unemployment benefits.
You know that kids get other illnesses that require them to miss school, right? And working parents had to have plans for that before Covid, right?
So why do you make such a bad argument?
