Original Note:
https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/masks-can-be-detrimental-to-babies-speech-and-language-development1/ Multiple historical studies have shown the importance of studying faces towards social, emotional, and language growth. The "Still Face" experiments seem particularly relevant. A lack of studies about COVID masks specifically is not evidence to the opposite.
