What's this?

I'm not so sure about that.


If kids are not wearing their masks properly and/or washing them frequently, I think there is a chance for harm. Constantly breathing in air through a nasty mask can't be healthy. And if kids are constantly touching their masks, you know they're getting dirty.

I'm not saying masks are completely useless, but I'm guessing that in an elementary school setting, their efficacy is MUCH lower than in a corporate setting. It also sucks that HokieGator has to add "mask police" to all of his other duties. His job is already difficult enough as it is - making him police all of the kids' mask-wearing practices is almost an impossible request.
