Excellent.  Perhaps vaccines should be required to obtain government assistance of any type?

Masks are great but stop pretending they will end Covid.  They will not.  Take a hard look at DMV stats on who is NOT vaccinated. Hint:  they aren’t republicans.[/quote]

Many of us with kids too young to be vaccinated are relieved. My child’s school was leaning toward making masks optional after a couple weeks which is worrisome. I’d rather it be a mandate so the school community, which is very divided on the issue, doesn’t have to argue among themselves and with the administration. I’m sure some people are mad but they’ll find something to be mad about no matter what. [/quote]

Also, I’m pretty sure wearing masks is what kept both my kids at in person school all year. You can argue all you want about their efficacy but if nothing else it reduces the number of times they touch their nose and mouth throughout the day and prevents a kid from literally sneezing in another kid’s face. The first illness since pre Covid times to hit my family was a cold given to us by our friend’s kid who did a big juicy sneeze right in my kid’s face while they were playing outside. I cringed when it happened because it was point blank range. Sure enough it was one of those terrible miserable colds and we all got it (Covid negative). I’d rather prevent that scenario from happening over and over all school year if I can. I don’t have the flexibility of working from home this year. [/quote]
