On the Idiotic Politicians In Oregon Making High School Track Athletes Compete with Masks On (Outside, No Less)

This is insane. First off youngsters are at a very low risk from COVID (and don't appear to spread it all that much, either), secondly the odds of anyone catching COVID outside are infinitesimal, and thirdly running and jumping with a mask on is unhealthy and potentially dangerous (don't believe me, try running 800 meters as fast as you can with one of those suckers on, it ain't pleasant). Of course we are dealing with some Oregon politicians here and so we probably need to grade on a curve but, still.
