I hope they keep and share good data in a months time. Their outcome will be no worse than Arlington adjusted for population.

The old navy mask your kid is wearing does not prevent transmission. They are actually causing more damage to our children than the minimal protection they provide. There are schools in this country with no masks with no more spread than schools with masks. More impactful is staying home when you don't feel your best.

As someone who has spent a good deal of time in both counties, this does not come as a surprise.

Sorry, I miswrote. They wanted to BURN books.
They actually DID burn books. Parents had a big bonfire. School board members were present. We were living in Stafford at the time and everyone in our community was horrified. Our school board is Stafford was a disaster. But nothing compared to Culpeper or Spotsylvania. There is no way my kids would ever go to school in either county.

The slowest day at the Target near my house is their busiest day. Those places just don’t have the same volume of people in close in spaces. I would personally still wear a mask but I very well understand why mask mandates just weren’t as popular and are easily dropped in those areas. It doesn’t mean people are dumb either. It just reflects a different community’s need. They have the luxury to go to a store at times and be one of a handful of people in the entire store. When there is all of 20 people in a grocery store, it does make you think is the mask necessary in this situation.
Culpeper, maybe…but have you ever been to Spotsylvania? You’re basically talking about the area around Fredericksburg…not exactly what I would call rural.

Virus does not care. It will infect culpeper folks just like everyone else.

Some books with explicit content should be banned, just as should an R rated movie be banned from school movie day. I hate how over politicized EVERYTHING is.
Then you must really hate Youngkin who attacked schools on made-up issue to win an election.

Those counties are awful. They’ve had the police called after fights at school board meetings. They make Stafford look progressive.
