Starting today across the state of Michigan, two-year-olds at daycare facilities will be required to mask up, thanks to an order from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. Kids from ages 2-4 will now be subjected to mask requirements just like the rest of Michigan citizens, according to MDHHS representative Bob Wheaton, who told MLive.com that two-year-olds will be required to wear a mask at a park just like 18-year-old senior in high school.
The new rules will require daycare workers to keep masks on two-year-olds. One daycare worker told Mid-Michigan Now that she’s concerned for the two-year-olds who are learning from teacher facial expressions and expressions from classmates. “Something might be super exciting and fun, but they can’t see that so they don’t know how to react,” Nicole Bellanger from Lady Di Daycare told the news channel.
Bellanger added that three-year-olds at the facility are speaking less since they started wearing face masks. “The mask will definitely put an impact on that. So we won’t be able to know what they say or what they want so that will make more behavioral issues because they can’t talk. So kind of like how babies cry because they have no other way of communicating now these 2-year-olds are going to have that same thing, so they’ll stop talking as much,” said Bellanger.
Yet still, the state says it’s time to mask up the two-year-olds through May 24 when the order is set to expire.
Dr. Nuzhat Ali, a pediatrician in Flint, told WJRT empathizes with the facilities who will be required to keep the kids masked or feel the hammer of the state health department.
“As a mother and as a pediatrician, I cannot just even imagine trying to put it on a two-year-old. And, you know, letting them wear it for eight to 10 hours a day. I mean it’s just, it’s just something which is, I don’t think it’s doable,” said Dr. Ali.
State lawmakers made a last-ditch effort Friday to get Governor Gretchen Whitmer to reconsider this new rule, but it failed. Whitmer’s health department moved forward. The CDC came out in February stating that two-year-olds should be wearing face coverings in a community setting and even went as far as stating that double masking was a smart idea.
New orders in Michigan require a “good faith effort” be made to have 2-4 year olds wear a mask all day at daycare.

This is the dehumanization of toddlers with zero benefit to stopping the pandemic. Every single person complicit in this crime deserves to burn in hell. Every single one of them.
Including the parents. If you allow this to be done to your child, you are guilty as well.
This is FN bullshit and everyone with an IQ more than a rock knows it. What’s it going to take for people to stand up against these power drunk idiots.
Agreed.
The liberals are NOT following the science as they always claim! Mask wearing is detrimental to toddlers intellectual development as well as being bad for their health by restricting oxygen flow.
If there are negative effects the state should be held liable!
Simple solution to all the tools out there with “broken hearts”: DO. NOT. COMPLY. Fucking sheep KNOW what’s going on is wrong but still abide by it. Fuck it. I have no sympathy for Michigan. Elections have consequences. Learn or keep your head down like a good lamb.
Masks on children = child abuse. The psychological damage to this generation of children will dwarf anything the Catholic Church ever did. Parents need to tell the state to piss off, home-school if they have to, and teach children the virtue of civic disobedience.
It’s actually worse than that. It is indoctrination at the earliest opportunity. An entire generation of kids being raised to fall in line — or else. Being programmed to blindly follow the rules and not push back or ask questions, because big brother knows what is best for you and there are consequences if you don’t comply!
That’s exactly what it is. It’s not enough dumbing down the education system. I mean really no accelerated math until 11th grade? Now not only are the kids going to ignorant, they’re going to be completely emotionless. A bunch of zombies not capable of thinking, falling in line.
I seriously mean this: The apocalypse is coming.
Can the casual readers that take the time to read this article actually believe that government officials are following through with this stuff?
And better yet, that PARENTS and BUSINESS OWNERS and EDUCATED PEOPLE are just throwing 🤷♂️ and letting it happen???
What in the holy f##k is wrong with you???!!!
A person in the article talked about facial clues and how we react to them, even as toddlers. I had wondered all along about Chauvin’s trial, where he was forced to wear a mask, and the jurors could not see his facial expressions as the trial progressed. A big part of a trial is how the defendant reacts and looks, not just the evidence that is presented on the stand.
That’s where I would draw the line. I would tell Whitmer to pound sand. I would absolutely refuse to put a facial diaper on my 2 year old child
It’s a death cult. That’s all it is. The vaccine are forcing virus mutations. Eventually kids will be victims of it. It’s a mad experiment by people who idolize death and abortion.
And control of others. Now that they feel safe in elections, circa 2020, meaning they know they will win no matter what public opinion is, you are seeing their true nature on full display.
Bingo. They aren’t into helping humanity…they are into sacrificing humanity (to whichever demon gives them their brief power)
Why. Would. Anyone. Even. Consider. Abiding. By. This. Garbage? Every single parent needs to ignore this. What could possibly be the downside?
when will people tell her to F off. She is seeing how far they can be pushed. Soon it will be corpses that will be required to mask up.
Disappointed in the sheeple of Michigan… they should rioting in the streets and marching to the state capital to grind these DemoKKKrat imbeciles under their boot heels… It’s time for war…
Ha, she’ll win re-election in a landslide. The hatred for Republicans is so strong now they’d rather be crushed under the weight of a totalitarian than vote for someone with an R.
Something I’ve been calling for since 11/04/2008…
You know, science!
Well Michigan you voted this clown in and have yet to recall this tyrant you get what you get y’all must love the bent over position as this tyrant continues to slam it home
Did she make this proclamation from Miami? You know, while on vacation in one of those “super spreader” states?
Peak stupidity, this POS communist is literally trying to stunt growth and hinder lives! F her!
Maybe move down to Georgia as long as you’re a conservative.
Why do people even think about playing by her rules?
Echoing King James…but regarding the CALI RECALL of Gov KnowNothing…
Hey Gov Witcher…You’re next on the recall docket. #ACCOUNTABILITY
So idiotic and reckless. Let’s mask up kids and prevent them from getting immunity from viruses that can actually kill them like the common flu. Such nonsense
Insane!! Just when you think things couldn’t get any dumber.
Liberals are just evil. I remember back in the day when I could have a conversation with a Democrat and not agree with them, but understand their perspective. Those days are long gone.
This same bull shit pertains in PA where I live. I send my 4 yr old to day care where they are required to where a mask. Also when she plays soccer kids are required to wear mask while they run around. I’ve been slowly teaching her to question this. As she bends the rules to benefit her. It’s total BS.
