There is no good reason to ban an unvaccinated 5-year-old from a museum

Published



The county executive of Montgomery County, Maryland, apparently believes that fighting COVID requires banning my five-year-old from the local nature center.

Next week, the county council will vote on a vaccine passport bill proposed by County Executive Marc Elrich. The law will, effective in March, apply to everyone 5 years old and older. It won’t apply in “senior centers,” but it will apply in museums, indoor botanical gardens, restaurants, bowling alleys, ice cream places, bakeries, and libraries.
