6. 0-12 year olds CANNOT vax up. They need to be protected until they can.

As do those who are unable to take the vaccine, or who cannot develop immunity even if they do take the vaccine.

That is one of the primary reasons this advice is premature. Anyone with half a brain knows that those eligible to be vaccinated who are not yet vaccinated will take this as license to walk around maskless and lie about being vaccinated. The only protection against those selfish jerks were the mandatory mask orders.

Until the time that transmissions are low, all people are eligible be vaccinated, and actual vaccination rate is high, it is irresponsible for the CDC to encourage removal of masks.
