What a joke! The vast majority of kids are eating in restaurants every week with their parents, some since last year. Adults are eating in restaurants, teachers and administrators are eating inside in school as are other government workers eating inside. But they want these ridiculous quasi-religious ritualistic outdoor lunch rules they live by to be forced down the throats of our kids.

GTFO. Glad to see these ridiculous lunch rules getting national attention now. The criticism of them is only going to get louder in January.

It's supposed to be 56 tomorrow and 64 on Thursday, not exactly Siberia.

Liar. No kids are eating outside in 30-degree weather.

Yep.

Great thanks that clarifies the picture.

You don't care about getting/spreading Covid.

Nope. I don't.

Sounds like you're vaccinated. We know they work, but some of the COVID doomers act like they don't.

At this point, everyone should have accepted the fact they will get COVID in their lifetime. It's only a matter of time. COVID will be here forever.

As for preventing spreading, all the mitigation methods don't work and the costs far outweigh any benefits. This bs only ends when we STOP complying with this COVID theater.

My entire family is vaccinated. Don’t care if I or anyone in my family gets covid. Not for a second. We’ll be fine.

Maybe you will be fine. But your child's classmate with asthma may not be fine. Your other child's classmate's father who is undergoing treatment for cancer may not be fine. See how this works? Not that you care.

I truly don't. They should have been vaccinated or they can stay home.

Immunocompromised people didn't start existing in March 2020. They've always had issues every flu season, including during H1N1. They'll have to manage just as they always have.

Yes they are managing now with masks, outdoor lunch, quarantines... the things you want to get rid of. What are they supposed to do then? Die?

We've never had those requirements previously for H1N1 or any other illness. These things aren't for immunocompromised people, these are for a few screamer parents who can't properly assess risk of COVID and really who never want to go back to normal.

COVID will be here forever. These lunatics want kids in masks and disruptive quarantines for the rest of their school years. Disgusting.

Hey girl, this is the lunch thread. We're talking here about 8 year olds (many vaccinated) sitting outside in 35 degree weather to each lunch because of "health", while the much higher risk teachers eat inside and restaurants are packed down the street with high risk adults. It's called ThEScIenCe

There have been no 35 degree days since the first 8 year olds was fully vaccinated. The weather has been warm. If there were, then they would have eaten inside.

The risk isn’t eating inside, it’s eating inside crowded with other people. As a teacher, I eat alone in my room.

Schools have always protected children from doing stupid risky things that adults routinely do. I don’t let my students jay walk on field trips either.

Kids prefer to be outside.

Eating inside with friends isn't stupid or risky - it's called normal. The vast majority of kids are doing it every week with their families at restaurants. I'd bet teachers are too. This is just absurd COVID safety theater that isn't applied anywhere else in society except to the very lowest group (kids).

There was a 39 degree lunch day last week. Is that normal to eat outside in 39 degree weather? Why didn't teachers too? It's insane.

The media has been covering this insanity more and more.

Honey, things aren't normal in a pandemic. You need to figure out a way to deal with that. Please get therapy if this is a hard concept for you to handle.

It's warm and sunny out today but OP would like to keep kids inside to eat anyways. OP sounds unhinged.

"in a pandemic" - but kids are having normal lunches in many places in the US and Europe. So it's not "because of the pandemic" - we have people using our kids to chase Zero COVID, which is scientifically not possible.

I myself are for letting Omicron rip - otherwise, we'll be doing these restrictions for the next 5 to 10 years. Everyone will be exposed to COVID repeatedly in their life, it's never going away, and delaying your exposure to it means your increasing your risk, considering the steep age stratification with COVID complications.

I know many parents are doing the "let it rip" strategy outside of school now. The COVIDians can put their kids in their blue K94 masks, keep their kids locked away and cause them mental problems, only to delay the inevitable. We're done.
