“[Pro-mask parents] may also point to the Omicron surge increasing children’s hospitalizations.”
They can point to it all they want, but the surge in child hospitalizations has been due to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, unrelated to the SARS-Cov-2 virus. The spread of ARDS comes from releasing children from lockdown, and suddenly exposing them to a world of viruses and bacterium to which they would naturally have built resistance had they not been in isolation. It overwhelms their immune system. Then they are hospitalized, where they also pick up Covid-19.
