There is more than death. We still don't know enough about Long Covid - depending on who you believe it is anything from normal things blamed on Covid to additional life long complications. Until science figures this out (I expect it to take years) I don't know if it is safe to risk my kids or not.

And we still don’t know the long term effects of kids breathing god knows what substances these cheap Chinese masks contain. We also have no clue what it will do to their language and social development. Yet people cheer on forcing them to wear one for an entire school day 5 days a week.
Like what? This is the first I've heard such a thing. It isn't hard to do a chemical analysis, so if there was any grounding in it I'd expect to have seen a better source then a random comment.
That said, my kids are wearing made in the USA masks.
