OP: One of the students recently got hospitalized for influenza
You: They're brainwashed for wearing a mask because covid isn't a risk to them

Children weren't required to wear masks because of the the risk of serious illness to them. It was the risk of illness to others who they may spread covid to (teachers, parents, grandparents, etc.) along with the overall increase in infections from having 50 million unmasked students.
Also, the risk of serious illness isn't the only reason to wear a mask. Given the choice of being sick for a few days (covid, influenza, etc.) or not being sick for a few days, I'd much rather not be sick.

Gross profit is total revenue minus the cost of the inventory they sold. It doesn't account for fix costs like rent, employee wages, or anything else etc. Once you subtract those, you get their net income, which is their actual profit.
CVS Health annual net income for 2021 was $7.91B, a 10.18% increase from 2020.
CVS Health annual net income for 2020 was $7.179B, a 8.22% increase from 2019.
CVS Health annual net income for 2019 was $6.634B, a 1216.84% decline (?) from 2018.

That's not even close to the actual profit though. Gross profit is basically just revenue minus the cost of goods sold. It doesn't account for any fix costs. Their actual profit is $7.91 Billion (from OP's source). That's from $291 Billion in revenue, putting their profit margin at under 3%.

And not wearing a mask doesn't mean that you'll 100% get sick. That's why it wasn't presenting either as such. I'm saying that trying not to get sick (regardless of severity) is also a reason people wear masks. As opposed to the OP's comment that only takes into account the risk of a serious illness.
