Mayor Eric Adams announced that he will finally drop the mask requirements for children under five after suffering withering attacks from the city's parents. 'Throughout the current wave, schools have remained the safest places for our children and beginning Monday, June 13, we will make masks optional for 2-4 year old children in all early childhood settings,' Adams said. 'We still strongly recommend that New Yorkers of all ages continue to wear masks indoors and we will continue to make masks available for any child or school staff member who wishes to continue wearing them.'For months parents in the city have accosted the mayor at public events bidding him to drop the requirement.
