675,000 Americans died from the 1918-1919 flu pandemic. In 1920, the US population was 106.5 million. So (ballpark estimate) the 1918-1919 flu pandemic killed 1 in every 160 Americans. For perspective. |
i have full confidence that America will surpass the 1918 flu per capita deaths in due time |
Aren’t 12-15 still under emergency use authorization? I think they could only do it for 16+? |
It’s because they weren’t masking hard enough. |
That would be 2,100,000 deaths. We're at 680,000. You have full confidence that there will be twice as many deaths in the 18 months as there have been so far since March 2020?

Yes, exactly. It will probably be mandated for the next school year once fully approved. Trying to mandate a vaccine under EUA for kids is fraught with potential legal chances and frankly, just not worth it, given the overall high vaccination rate in MoCo (even among that age group). |
Apparently you aren’t acquainted with Mu or Theta. |
I guess they were behaving poorly? Too bad they didn’t have some of these posters to lecture them on behavior from behind computer screens… |
Oh yes, what does your crystal ball tell us about those variants? And the ones after that? And the Yellowstone caldera? |
The two variants discovered earlier this year? Are these the two new champions for Team Covid Lockdowns? |
| Ours isn't listed on the site yet. I don't think the OP was referring to ESS, because I think there was only one other notice, a week or two ago. But the entire 5th grade and one 2nd grade class was sent home yesterday. |
When the vaccine becomes available for ES students later this fall, does this type of nonsense end? |
The nonsense ends when the positives stop. So, what are you doing to help stop the positives. You can still get and spread covid even vaccinated. So, without behavior, this is going to last a long time. |
| Our elementary school has had 6 or 7 notifications this year (not all listed on the dashboard), with three of them within the past week. Because of classroom changes for compacted math, it has impacted more than three classes. It is quiet at pick up and drop off! |
What are you doing to change your behavior? You used electricity and WiFi to make this post. How dare you put the power plant and telecom workers at risk with your behavior? Change your behavior!!! |
