Tom,

Not seeking to drag this out, but I would be curious to know which of my "opinions" you disagree with and which (if any) you agree with:

This is neither funny,
nor true,
nor helpful.
It is irresponsible.
You are just spreading dangerous misinformation.
Unvaccinated parents are now catching the delta variant, taking it home, and infecting their children.
Those who choose to not be vaccinated are a risk to others as well as themselves.
Schools in Florida that want students and teachers to wear masks to prevent the spread of COVID, are being defunded by their brilliant governor.
COVID should not be a political football,
it is a killer.
Our leaders should be encouraging citizens to vaccinate,
mask,
and take all the protective measures recommended by the CDC.

My research shows that it is safe for children 2 and older to wear protective masks.

The letter that Tucker Carlson featured about mask safety and children has since been retracted by JAMA Pediatrics.

Thanks,

Jim

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where:
Jim With all due respect, opinions may differ.

Wide variety of reading is recommended. The masking of children is a case in point. Surprising amount of controversy which is out there about how children can suffer from mask wearing. Not being broadcast on TV. Just search this phrase -- children masking has risks -- to see divergence of views, both viewpoints.

But you're certainly entitled to your views. And I'd decline to debate further, respecting your right to differ.

Tom
