Why aren’t schools with high COVID rates masking?

And now they're all getting the new strain. Immunity doesn't last. Vaccines don't seem to a great job in preventing longterm effects. Most sane people would therefore conclude that not getting a highly contagious virus that can have long-term effects is worth wearing a mask to do.

Except that: 1) a lot of people that wear masks still end up getting Covid, and 2) a lot of people that don’t even get Covid still end up with those so-called long-term effects.

Meh. Just keep getting more shots. Two wasn’t good enough. Three didn’t cut it. Maybe four will do the trick?

Your point 2.) Is just more troll nonsense.

1.) Less viral load is still a good thing. Getting covid less often is also good. Not actively infecting others when you have covid? Again, the responsible choice.

Are you claiming #2 isn’t accurate? That only people with covid end up experiencing the symptoms/effects that are associated with post-covid conditions?

I agree that getting covid less often is a good thing. But presumably you recognize that there are negative effects from masks, mainly discomfort, which is why we don’t always wear masks (with higher quality masks generally being increasingly uncomfortable). Is that discomfort worth getting covid slightly less often? Or having a slightly less chance of developing serious medical complications in your life? I certainly don’t think so. Particularly when it isn’t foreseeable that we’ll ever be living without covid spreading at significant rates.

Make your choice then. I'm making a different one.

We are back to wearing N95s, ignorant people who hate masks can do whatever they want, that's going to be on them.

Of course they don’t. Just like they didn’t want to fight the angry lynch mob in order to get kids back in schools. They’ll do what’s most expedient and least risky for them. Always.
