[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sigh.... We can make schools better and safer but that won't change the health conditions of people. The government isn't going to suddenly ban fast food and force people to move more. If we are being honest most disease is from poor eating and lack of movement. Obesity is also a factor in being more susceptible. If you actually look at trends in places re-opening you'll notice their obesity rates are much lower as well as their rates of people with comorbidities. So, it's easier to just say teachers are babies than really examine why we could possible be in this situation. Germany's obesity rate is about 22% Average being 26 (which isn't obese by US standards) The average for DC is 50% YES, you read correctly FIFTY PERCENT. AND in ward 7 and 8 is 75%!!! This is not a joke. https://dchealth.dc.gov/service/obesity-overview https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world...ctbook/rankorder/2228rank.html (older but I wanted to use a gov agency) [/quote] so no school until we fix the obesity epidemic. way to move the goalposts allll the way into another dimension![/quote]
