At the Discovery Preschool in Truckee, children have not been wearing masks for a few months, said Courtney Dent, the school’s assistant director, in violation of state guidelines. While schools like Discovery Preschool have already made the decision to not require masks, some experts say the state’s decision to end the mandate comes too soon, especially for California’s smallest residents, who are not eligible for vaccination against COVID-19. Swartzberg questions the decision, noting that last June California did not follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s recommendation to lift mask mandates because the state’s rate back then was 3 new cases per 100,000 people. Mask rule changes for schools and child care sites have been slower to come from the state than for restaurants, retail stores or public events.
