[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When we moved to Florida, masks were my biggest concern. But you know what? Kids are doing just fine in schools without wearing masks. I still wear mine much of the time. But, I kinda feel duped by the hyper vigilant mask brigade in DC/NoVA. We have lots of Covid. But, so do you. Schools did not shut down here. Kids just aren’t getting very sick. Very few people are. My father-in-law is 86 years old. Most of his friends have had it. They all have multiple medical conditions. They all did fine. My FIL had a cough. That’s it. I’m not suggesting we ignore the risk. We are all fully vaccinated as is everyone I know. We wear a mask in crowded places. Sadly, some people will get really sick. Just like they do with other viral infections. We can take steps to minimize risk without destroying mental health. This isn’t going anywhere. I’m not an anti-masker. I am fully vaccinated. But I do think the DC area attracts type A control freaks. And this, my friends, simply cannot be controlled. [/quote] I’d like to follow you — where are you are how are the schools?[/quote] We are near Tampa. It was a culture shock for sure. I miss a lot of things about DC. But, I do think think a saner approach to this awful pandemic could have really saved a lot of heartache. We need to take it seriously. We need precautions. But I think areas like DC and NoVA just went way, way overboard. And people still got sick. [/quote]
