[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know people at the FDA. Promising vaccines with adult roll out and a good number of adults vaccinated around March 2021. Pediatric studies are not steering yet but will follow. [/quote]

Yeah, people at the FDA shouldn’t be speculating on something as unpredictable as clinical trials, assuming you’re telling the truth.

OP, I’m crossing all fingers and toes for Fall 2021.  [b]The upcoming year is going to be a wash.[/b][/quote]

Not acceptable.[/quote]

I absolutely adore how many times these angry, foot-stomping parents have used and reused and reused the words "not acceptable" or "unacceptable."

Here, lean in a little and let me clue you in.  The school board, the local government, et al are not your underlings at work, who you can say that their choices are "unacceptable" and they must redo them until they meet your standards.

It does not matter at all whether you "accept" it or not.  Not the teeniest, tiniest smidge.  I keep laughing at all the parents who are threatening "rioting in the streets."  It just makes them feel powerful to say it, in a situation where they in fact have no power.  If there are any statistically significant number of parents "rioting" in the street in the fall over distance learning, I'll eat my hat.  [/quote]

I think that you're afraid that the board of education (which is elected) and other local and state government officials (who are also elected) will make decisions you don't want them to make. Otherwise why go to the effort of discouraging people from advocating for their viewpoints to our local (elected) government officials?[/quote]

NP.  Feel free to advocate. But prepare for the possibility that they won’t do what you want.  [/quote]

That is true for every advocacy on every topic at every time.[/quote]

it seems some people don't realize that however.[/quote]
