I want to refer you to read an excellent article about masks. Here is an excerpt – the link to the full article follows:

Key Points
Decades of the highest-level scientific evidence (meta-analyses of multiple randomized controlled trials) overwhelmingly conclude that medical masks are ineffective at preventing the transmission of respiratory viruses, including SAR-CoV-2.

Those arguing for masks are relying on low-level evidence (observational retrospective trials and mechanistic theories), none of which are powered to counter the evidence, arguments, and risks of mask mandates.

The majority of the population is at very low to almost no risk of severe or lethal disease from CoVID-19. Children are at an extraordinarily low risk of dying from CoVID-19. Based on CDC published data, 99.99815% of children that contract CoVID-19 survive.

Transmission of SARS-CoV-2 among children in schools and daycares is very rare.

Masks worn properly are well documented to cause harm to their wearers.

Masks worn improperly, re-used, or contaminated are dangerous.

Any reasonable risk to benefit analysis of medical masks concludes that the risks overwhelmingly outweigh the benefits.

Children are at imminent risk of harm from mask mandates.
