In a CNN interview on Tuesday with Ana Cabrera, Dr. Jorge Rodriguez — billed as as board certified internal medicine specialist and viral researcher — offered his expert opinion on how long American kids should be forced to mask up as part of combatting the Wuhan coronavirus.
“Some schools are getting rid of mask requirements,” noted host Ana Cabrera. “Is the country in a place where it’s ok to take this step and if not — not now — when will it be?” she asked Dr. Rodriguez.
“I think it’s too early to stop requiring children to wear masks,” he answered calling decisions to relax mask mandates “one of the biggest pitfalls we’ve fallen on.”
