I have a granddaughter who associated masks with the chance her loved ones were going to die. That’s too much fear for a child to carry! And I feel masks have become a security blanket.

Dr. Leap: I have read your writings for years and have often found them entertaining and poignant. Not so much this one. You lost me when you were willing to talk unmasked with a high risk elderly (meaning NOT low risk) patient who sought your care trusting that you would do your best to minimize her risks. And I'm not sure where you are practicing, but to my knowledge there is nowhere in the U.S. right now where the "COVID numbers have been close to zero." You have a platform here. Is this the message you want to put out there?
