I take handwashing more seriously. I make sure to beef up my immune system with Vitamins C, D and Zinc. I do things that make sense. I did take the vaccination. 97% of hospitalized patients due to Coronavirus are unvaccinated. I don't believe masks work, so I won't do that.

I have children who are too young to be vaccinated.

Debra Riffle

If I had children in school, I would want them to wear a mask. They are too young for a vaccine right now. Kids generally don't cover their coughs. That is what a mask is good for; covering a cough or sneeze spray. They aren't good at keeping viruses in or out. They are too permeable.

With the vaccines and other ways we can protect ourselves, I am not worried.
