Not to mention that when there were mandates, most kids had no problem. Sure, masking for the littles was imperfect, but it wasn’t the kids who complained. It was the adults. It’s always the adults. If a kid can learn to wear clothes to school,they can learn to mask there, too.

COVID has 10x-50x higher prevalence than flu and RSV combined during PEAK flu season. And flu actually goes away almost completely for the rest of the year, but COVID never does, as we've seen. COVID is far more dangerous, and everywhere always. Comparing them is a fallacy.
