[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No way - teacher here - this is a serious deal breaker for me. I was considering maybe we wouldnt need masks anymore last summer, but not right now when we have more cases than ever before and I have more of a chance of catching it.[/quote]

I feel the opposite way. I don’t see how their poorly worn masks are doing anything and hear how schools have been open without masks throughout the pandemic. I will enforce whatever rules my district, FCCPS sets. I am concerned they want to mask forever and will keep the mask mandate next year too. If that’s the case I will go to any district nearby that doesn’t require them.  [/quote]

I am with you.  It's pretty clear that poorly worn unsealed masks are theater at this point. But people will be clinging to their safety blankets forever and with it our kids will be masked for eternity or for every flu/cold season for any reason other than Covid, which means half of the school year.  It has to stop. Anyone can get a vaccine now, any age, isn't it what you all have been waiting for to unmask your kids? Treatments are coming and this variant is milder. Anyone who wants complete protection can use N95, they are already trying to push this in some schools.[/quote]

Kids under 5 still can’t get a vaccine.[/quote]

No one in our family has any contact with five year olds so that isn't stopping us. [/quote]

Do you have contact with people who live with 5 year olds?[/quote]
