[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At Lafayette there were maybe 2-3 masked kids per room, everyone else had them off. [/quote] Wow, I definitely think you will notice a difference between predominantly white schools, and predominately black schools. My school is 90+% black, everyone wore a mask.[/quote] I noticed in my predominantly white ES that a much larger percentage of black students were masked than white. That makes sense to me, however. If your community has felt the effects more, and lives with a heightened sense of threat on a daily basis, you might easily be slower to unmask. Our black students who really never fully/effectively masked during the pandemic were unmasked today however.[/quote] They are also the group not getting vaccinated at the same rate as white and Asian DC residents, which is taking a much higher risk than not wearing a mask. If they want to mask forever but not get a vaccine, fine, but responsible vaccinated people shouldn't have to mask just to make them feel safer when they refuse to take responsibility for their own health. If they are vaxxed and also mask, then they are being hypercautious -- which is their choice, just like it's mine not to mask. [/quote]
