Hope people take this seriously, because it is. This is the best personal protection one can get for themselves and their children and the community as a whole.
Masks also cut down on the spread to others.
“The best way to protect children 12-18 years old from hospitalization/death is to get them vaccinated and have them mask while in public.
The best way to protect children 2-11 years old (until vaccines are available) is to have them mask, and have EVERYONE in contact with them wear a mask when not at home (because even vaccinated people can spread it to them).
In addition, vaccinated adults and teens who live with children under 12, should mask when in public to avoid breakthrough infections and secondary transmissions to children in their home.
The best way to protect infants is for mom to get vaccinated while pregnant and/or breast feeding as some immunity will transfer to the baby through the placenta/breastmilk.
Everyone in contact with an infant should mask.
Limit visitors. Everyone who lives with an infant should mask when in public. “
