Masks are such an important tool in the COVID fight that extra care must be taken to not create conditions which legitimize backlash against mask mandates with executive orders that err on the side of restriction. The previous order already required masks in most settings.

2 year olds should be in face shields. Follow the Singapore model on this one. As a practical matter, mask wearing compliance by children under 12 will not be good, so even from a source control standpoint, I suspect face shields are better.

Or, more practically, 2-year olds (many of whom literally also have their diapers changed by caregivers) could not use a face-covering. Young children have not been driving outbreaks. Policies should be science-based (not rotating staff, keeping separation between adults, etc).
