A. Babies and toddlers under 2 years old shouldn't wear a mask because: They have smaller airways, so breathing through a mask is harder for them. If it's hard for them to breathe and they can't tell anyone or take the mask off by themselves, they could suffocate. Some homemade masks might have pieces that a baby could choke on, such as strings or elastic bands. They will likely try to remove the mask, causing them to touch their face a lot. This can increase their risk of catching and spreading the virus.
