Not necessarily.
I've seen nowhere that you are supposed to produce papers to prove your exemption.
But masks do make a marked difference even with mild asthma. I have exercise asthma. For most things, the mask doesn't bother me - light shopping trips, etc. I had to exercise in it for the first time a couple nights ago, and stuff that doesn't normally do more than make me breathe hard without the mask, flipped me into wheezing inside 10 minutes with the mask on. Because it's normally so mild, I didn't think it would be that big of a deal, but it was. Now I'm not going to go running to a doctor for a note just for that because most of the time, the mask isn't an issue. I'll see if I can control it with an inhaler first.
But my point is that mask on v. mask off can be dramatic with asthma,

Blah blah blah
You simply do not understand the circumstances.
She was at a kids game on school grounds.
You follow the rules or you get removed.
Upon entry you surrender some of your rights.
She chose not to comply and got arrested.
While the mask rules ARE STUPID AND INEFFECTIVE the school gets to make the rules for its property.
She wore her mask in because she was outside and when entering could not maintain proper social distance, but once in the bleachers, she could.
Again, part of the Ohio mandate is that you do not have to wear a mask outdoors with your family group if proper social distance from other groups can be maintained, which it was.
Is it wrong of her to think that maybe she didn't have to wear her mask any more, especially if she had asthma?
Again, I wear a mask into my aerobics studio and out of it. I do not wear it to exercise as we can maintain proper distance on the floor while exercising. It used to be the same as tae kwon do, but as we have a harder time maintaining social distance there with less space and fuller classes, they switched to masks all the time, not just in and out and in the lobby area.

I’m asking because you seem to know what was going on in her head so I’m hopeful you can answer as to the follow-on thought processes as well.

Ugh...
She should have left when they asked her to leave.
Absolutely not.
Oh
The property owner no longer has the right to control who is on their property?
Did she? Can you point me to her statement saying that? Or are you maybe just deciding you know what she did and why and going from there? I feel like it’s probably the second one, but if you can answer the first one I’m all ears.
And, again, the state athletic commission and school both have policies requiring facial coverings be worn at all times.
Is that what she thought? Or are you again ascribing a thought process to her that you have no basis for? Can she read? Can she hear? If yes to both, or one, did she not read the signs, hear the announcements at the ticket booth, or hear the announcements over the PA? I’m asking because you seem to know what was going on in her head so I’m hopeful you can answer as to the follow-on thought processes as well.

I was wearing one of the standard cloth ones. I've ordered us some made out of athletic material. They're supposed to be lighter weight, more breathable, and moisture wicking, but they haven't arrived yet. I was hoping we'd get them today. I might try a paper one and see how it does.
The problem I have is that I have a narrow face so they tend to fall off easily. I also sweat buckets, so they get soaked fast.
