In light of COVID-19, many states advise the use of face masks on most individuals, with a few exceptions. For example, the New Jersey Department of Education has advised that everyone in districts across the state must wear a face mask. Exceptions are when doing so inhibits an individual's health, when the individual is under 2 years of age, or when the face covering could be impractical for an individual with a disability, says Lauren E. Tedesco-Dallas, a school attorney at Capehart Scatchard in Mt. Laurel, N.J.
