From WPBF in South Florida:
She said that during this pandemic, her speech therapy clinic has seen an enormous shift in the ages of its patients. Before the pandemic, only 5% of patients were babies and toddlers, while today it’s soared to 20%. Many parents call it “COVID-delayed.”
“We’ve seen a 364% patient increase in patient referrals of babies and toddlers from pediatricians and parents,” Theek said.
Why are we still masking kids?!
"Babies start learning how to speak by reading lips at as young as 8-months-old. So when lips and faces are covered up by masks, therapists say for some kids, they can work around the mask and still learn to speak perfectly fine. But for others, it can cause speech delays." https://t.co/tQA84G8G2K

Also, this is a report from Florida. How much worse is it in blue states?
And this is in Florida. Imagine what's happening in places where masks for kids still are not optional. https://t.co/3RPBKkxWdV
