You're wanting to put the burden of COVID mitigation solely on children.  That's disgusting.

We know how low of risk children have with COVID (less than the risk they take riding in a car to school).

COVID will be here forever. Everyone will get it. This is just putting the burden on children, so you can unsuccessfully try to avoid a virus that everyone will get. And you're penalizing children.  Absolutely disgusting.

DO NOT OPT IN TO THIS TESTING!  IT IS SCHOOL CLOSURES BY STEALTH[/quote]

I'm not wanting to put the burden of COVID mitigation solely on children.   First, I'm pointing out that restaurants and gyms aren't the best standard to look at when creating a healthy educational environment for kids.  Second, I actually think there are a lot of very selfish adults.  Sure adults are tired of the past two years.  We're ALL tired, but that doesn't excuse selfishness, and 2 years in I have a hard time assuming many people are still clueless.  Third, I have an under 5 child with health issues and older child who is school aged.  Because too many parents won't take basic mitigation requirements (like teach their kids to mask, test their kids to slow the spread, keep kids home when they're sick) I'm faced with some really tough choices that help one child but hurt the other, and vice versa.  All I'm asking is for my at risk under 5 to have a vaccine and for treatments to be available for their age group.  in the meantime, I am begging parents who read this to teach masking, test your kids, keep them home when they're sick.   Please.    [/quote]

Immunocompromised people did not start existing in March 2020.  I feel for your child, but there are 200 endemic respiratory viruses. Your child would have problems during flu seasons. H1N1 killed way more kids on annual basis than COVID.

Your child would still have problems even if everyone just masked harder, as you want.  This is a highly transmissible respiratory virus. Virus is going to virus.

My kids have stopped with all COVID restrictions since this summer and will not do them any longer. The majority of the country has.  Time to move on.

DO NOT SIGN UP FOR TESTING!  THIS IS LOCKING HEALTHY KIDS OUT OF SCHOOL.

Sit TF down, nutter.

You don’t get to tell parents what to do.
