Prediction: Schools will have kids back in masks within a month

[Anonymous]

Good ol NPR.

My two high schoolers in a Big 3 don’t care one way or the other. They could stay in masks forever or be done with them tomorrow. They’ll do what’s right.

I mean the *NEW* good ol NPR (because it is nothing like what it was 10+ years ago or it’s original reputation and qualities).

Reasons:

1. Second OMICRON wave will move quickly when BA.2 gets a foothold.
2. Schools are now major sources of transmission (different from earlier in the pandemic)
3. Most kids younger than 12 have only had two shots, if any
4. Masks optional policies will enable rapid spread, taking out classrooms and schools with wide spread sickness within a few weeks

That's what they said when schools opened in the Fall. Then...a big nothingburger.

Same song, different verse. Yawn.

What? Omicron had shut everything down again. More people died. Kids got COVID. It wasn't a nothingburger. You don't remember?

I'm the PP. Our schools remained open during Omicron. People died, but people die all the time and now, if they're not vaccinated, it is their fault. Kids getting COVID is not a big deal. Yes, I remember. I remember my kid being happy to be in school once again.

My fully vaccinated and boosted coworker died after getting infected by her grandchild. You people are really callous and gross.

Yep, keep spouting nonsense about the new variant:

Time to move on. It’s over.

That's unfortunate. But that's life.

How many Americans die every year as a result of being fat and not exercising?

Blame the treatment protocol. Was he treated with Remdesivir? If yes, research what other and better treatment options actually exist but (due to hospital politics) not used on your coworker.

You all are absolutely sick, just disgusting. No regard for other people’s losses.

I don’t want my rising Kindergartner to start school in a mask. I hope they are all gone by then.

If people continued masking now, when community transmission rates remain high, we’d all have a better chance of a mask-free start to next school year for our kids.

This. But Americans have no patience.

YOU have no regard for people's losses. Why do you not care about treatment protocol? Are people's lives worthless to you? How sick!

I love these posts. Your kids are dropping masks as soon as the school makes it optional. You are living in la-la land.

I’ll add that they are also unimportant. But agree it’s important to point out just how pathetic the anti-maskers are carrying on so much, and for what? 2-3 more weeks.

Just 2 weeks to flatten the curve . . .
