Reply to comment by RogueInteger in Masks will be asked and expected at BPS for 8 school days but won’t be made mandatory. by lucifer0915

Yes, they worked SO WELL during covid that people just stopped getting covid.

We had several waves of covid during the mask mandate era and it doesn't really appear to be any different from the waves we're seeing post mask mandate era.

I'm talking about probability. You're talking about binary outcomes.

Masks are effective in reducing infection. Even before covid you might have noticed their use in sanitary or sterile environments.

There's nothing wrong in wanting to reduce risk.

This is an optional undertaking for students. Stop making this into something it's not.
