We now know why Covid cases are increasing in MA and in the nation. Covid is rampant in the schools out this way. This staff members. Teachers are out. Subs are scarce. But we are not alone.
The following is a quote from the CNN article below. The last 11 words are easily the most foolish I have read in a very long time. Yes, we know how to prevent Covid or at least mitigate its spread. And yet we have ended every single one of the mitigation techniques in our schools.
“Experts say that this increased transmission is to be expected — but that keeping kids in school should be the priority, and there are now enough ways to make sure it’s done safely.”
I see no reason for masking while walking alone with few or no people in sight in the nice fresh air. Another is while driving alone. There is also too much needless masking as well.
Outdoor mask orders (outside of huge gatherings) during the early months of the pandemic made no sense imo.
I agree with you as long as there isn’t a crowd outside. As far as early masking, I’d disagree. It was in place while the experts figured out how Covid was spread.
Adding that I don’t think that is what the tweet is referring to
BA.2.75.2 – that’s the latest sub-variant to look out for. Lots of immune escape properties. Its sister – BA.2.75 – has thus far been a dud in the U.S. Let’s hope BA.2.75.2 is the same. https://twitter.com/BenjMurrell/status/1570862185819303937

I will never understand how we allow this to happen
How? How do we knowingly expose children and school staff …..
