Excellent decision

Well finally.

I would support k-8. Above that, though, I think requiring masks will discourage additional vaccinations. I think k-8 masks should be optional once the vaccine is available.

Good. Wish they would have decided earlier though to avoid all the SB meetings spiraling out of control.

And now there’s a mad rush on quality mass at several mask websites.

Well, you’re going to have to accept the governor’s order

I have a kid at private and one in APS. I'm so relieved that the mask mandate applies to both public and private schools. We haven't received any communication from our private school as to whether masks will be required.

Same. I have a friend (not an anti vaxxer) who is waiting to vaccinate her son. She is skeptical why so few other countries are moving ahead like the US. She did say they would get it if it meant her son could go to school w/o a mask.

Other countries do not have sufficient amounts of vaccine. That is why. Ugh, people and their "research "

I honestly think that if you put the CDC recommendations behind a $1 paywall, people would follow them because they'd feel they had "found" information not everyone had access to.

Finally. A great decision. I wish it had been made sooner but I am glad it was made.

Europe has surpassed the US with number of adults vaccinated. UK has plenty of vaccine and just now approved 16-18 and only one dose. France only vaccinating high risk 12 and ups. Everyone else waiting to see more data. It’s not crazy for people to be cautious. I will vaccinate my kids at the first opportunity bit I shutting down these convos could backfire.

This is false. Please don’t spread false information. For example: France is vaccinating anyone 12 and up. Anyone. My nieces and nephews have all been vaccinated with Pfizer. Basically anyone who wants the vax there can get it. They have surpassed the US vaccination rate.

I actually have the tousanticovid all and a QR code for it so I have access to all the information. The government is extremely transparent. They release every day all the numbers. So stop making stuff up. If you don’t want to vax your kid, that’s your choice. But don’t make stuff up to justify your decision.
