[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It makes no sense that closing schools would ease the burden on hospital admissions.

The staff and teachers are vaccinated.  Since vaccination became available only like 2.8% of hospitalizations in DC have been vaccinated individuals.

Kids are already at a low risk for hospitalizations.

Closing schools has not been shown to reduce spread anyway.

Closing schools, if anything, will INCREASE the burden on hospitals as hospital staff can't report because they have to stay home with their kids.[/quote]

Couldn’t agree more. People supporting this bill try to present closures as virtuous when really it just makes everything worse. Also, for all the R. White boosters that assured people on this forum that he is not an advocate for closing schools, it didn’t take long at all to see how eager he is to do so. [/quote]

He's desperately trying to differentiate himself from Bowser with this stuff, and it's going to backfire badly.

Bowser is going to hammer him with this.[/quote]

Considering a majority of the council has already come out in public supporting the bill, maybe it’s more popular that the DCUM crowd thinks

NP. That might be true because people a) don't think through the consequences and b) don't care about kids if they don't have any themselves. This society has shown over the past two years that they are willing to impose harmful restrictions on children without evidence that they actually help and without concern about long-term consequences.[/quote]
