> the cost of wearing a mask is negligible I'm generally in support of the masking rules BUT I also have a very young baby and there is definitely a high cost for him. Not seeing a smile when he is left at daycare has caused him to cry more than once, I don't even want to think about the long term effects of seeing so much less facial expression in his critical first months. I know this is a talking point of anti-maskers but let's not pretend all of the other side's arguments are bogus _because_ they made it. This is just one example, there _is_ a cost to masking up the entire population.
