I am still struggling to understand a group of parents booing and jeering a school official for wearing a mask (âProtesters decry masks at Manheim Central,â May 18 LNP | LancasterOnline).
I work in a school and I wear a mask every day to protect the health and safety of the students, faculty and staff around me.
Please explain how this could possibly offend anyone. For more than a year, doctors and scientists have been studying this new virus and its variants to understand not only the immediate effects of infection but also the long-term effects.
It would be totally irresponsible if schools did not take this pandemic seriously, especially in looking out for our children. I fear that people are equating freedom with the indulgence of selfishness. Freedom in society carries great demands and responsibilities.
