Should your child wear a mask to protect against COVID-19? What a pediatrician wants you to know:
Many parents are wondering if they should put a mask on their child to protect them from COVID-19. While the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children above the age of 2 should wear masks to protect them and others, some parents are wondering how and when it makes sense.
I had an opportunity to talk to a colleague, Dr. Jaime Friedman, a pediatrician at Children’s Primary Care Medical Group in San Diego, for her thoughts on children and masks.: Like the recommendation for adults, children over the age of 2 should wear a mask or face covering in situations in which they cannot maintain social distancing of 6 feet.
development. If schools open but we still have a need for social distancing and masks in public, I would assume the same would be true for schools. The ability to use masks safely and appropriately will definitely vary by age.: I am wearing a mask in public, as are my children, although they don’t go in public often. I also wear a mask with all patients and office staff.: I think schools and districts will have to decide on their own policies.
