[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is gong to happen to the tiny shread of credibility of Smart Restart and the Arlington Education Association (especially crying union leader) remaining when masks are optional and nothing happens? These COVIDians have been consistently wrong and have only damaged our school system by scaring students, parents and teachers: *Remember when they didn't want to open without 14 days of new cases (we still wouldn't be open)? *Remember when they said open schools would cause tons of people to die (didn't happen)? *Remember when they said open schools would result in way more cases in the community (didn't happen; spread in school is less than the community)? *Remember when they complained about school being forced to be open during Delta because of SB1303, saying it was too dangerous? *Remember when they complained about school being forced to be open during Omicron because of SB1303, saying schools would have to close because too much staff would be out? Please remember the devastation they claim will occur with mask optional schools. Meanwhile, around 1/2 the kids in the US or more are at mask optional schools, with no issue. There are tons of kids in Northern Europe too for the entire pandemic.[/quote] These type of criticisms ignore the reality that circumstances and knowledge changed as the pandemic proceeded. No, the supporters of pandemic mitigation measures are not “consistently wrong.” Focusing on 2022 only, limiting the mask mandate in schools on mid January is much riskier than doing so sometime later this month (assuming the Covid infection rates continue their downward trajectory and we really do move toward the end of the pandemic). It does not make the fight against Youngkin lifting the mask mandate weeks ago wrong. [/quote] No, you people who have been consistently wrong do not get an out. We looked at the same evidence you did, and saw how wrong you were at that time. You called us every name in the book at the time. Your credibility has been destroyed. And masks should have been off last fall, as so many mask optional states in the US and mask optional countries in Europe showed. You still won't admit you were wrong.[/quote] And you have proven that facts and science do not matter to you and you don’t care about anyone else but your own beliefs. I am glad you were stopped from putting my child at risk up to this point.[/quote] You have been wrong on the science continually. Here's the Smart Restart head at 2:30 saying alarmingly that's it's now up to individuals - my kids masks will be thrown in the trash, that's for sure and how we're "individually" handling it. These COVIDians need to follow the science and statistics. https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/coronavirus/coronavirus-in-virginia/school-masking-choice-passes-virginia-senate/2966933/[/quote] Scouring the interwebs to stalk SR people? CREEPY!! Go back to your alternate reality and leave those poor SR people alone. [/quote]
