Fox News
A top Minnesota public health official told parents that masking their children is a "best practice" for mitigating the spread of COVID-19, but he appeared to contradict himself behind closed doors, reportedly telling staff that masking is among the "least effective" mitigation technique.
In August, he told parents during a "Return to School" webinar that in addition to getting their kids vaccinated, making them wear masks in the classroom is the next best practice for mitigating the spread of the virus.
