[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's so weird that here we are four years later and people are still acting like there's some vast Illuminati-level conspiracy that happened to try and solve an impossible situation in a broken world.

A highly-contagious virus that is contagious before someone has symptoms, is airborne, and not hotly lethal is an impossible situation. And it happened to us. All of us. And it's still happening. A lot of people are never symptomatic, which allows them the luxury of pretending covid19 isn't important, or never happened. Lucky them.

I wasn't lucky. My neighbor wasn't lucky. My friends father, my other friend's mother, my great uncle, that kid on my kid's soccer team--and the list goes on, all not lucky.

Given an imperfect world and a perfect virus, there are things you can do to protect yourself and your family. Wear masks. Use air purifiers. Get vaccinated. Try not to keep getting infected. Try not to infect others. None of those things are perfect. But they're all we have.

For people who don't believe, you can't really do anything. You won't convince them. I tried.

Some of us think adult masking works, but also recognize the obvious fact that they impede communication and are not great for little kids' social development. And therefore that requiring masks in schools indefinitely was not a great choice. Should have been limited to surges when you get the most bang for your buck.

For people like you that think anyone with a nuanced view is a Trumper, we really can't do anything. We can't convince you. We tried.[/quote]

Are you kids at school 24/7?  Otherwise they were masking for a limited time of day and should be just fine.  Are you wearing them at home?  Your young child should get their development from home, which means you are outsourcing all the parenting.[/quote]

So, you're a SAHM without commercially valuable skills. Good for you.[/quote]
