The Illinois Department of Health director recently said that "masks are as effective as vaccines" amid a push to crack down on mask wearing in schools.
"If we actually want our kids to be in school for in-person learning, masking is a great protection and our best bet," Dr. Ngozi Ezike said last Thursday, according to Chalkbeat. "The bottom line is that masks are as effective as vaccines are."
Ezike is now facing criticism for the comment, with one Twitter user saying, "If the goal is to increase vax uptake -- and we know both Illinois & Chicago, uptake is lowest among Black & Latinx residents -- Dr Ezike's statement is at-odds with equity goals."
