agreed. i don't understand why it's voluntary. ridiculous. we have fantastic mask compliance in my county, and it's mandatory, and cases are still going up like crazy. no mask mandate is stupid.
You will recall I proposed that everyone take a gap year rather than try and half ass it.
So home schooling is a total joke too?
The pandemic is the perfect example of left and right actually wanting the exact same outcome but arguing because political actors on one side create a false narrative about what the other side wants.
Missing my point. First, home schooling is marvelously effective when done right. That’s demonstrably indisputable despite your unaware attitude. My point is virtual learning guided by a good teacher can parallel the quality of home schooling.
This is the real issue - and I'm leaving the financial aspects aside here, just talking about infrastructure - just like it was in the spring. If we let this get out of hand to the point where hospitals can't keep up, we're screwed. Not only will the economy collapse, but so will healthcare, and lots of people will get sick and die.
Will the moderate Dems put enough pressure on Pelosi to accomplish this. I think so but, I think, Mark said there was no way a Pelosi would let the two Georgia Senators have the opportunity to vote yes.
It's going to get a lot worse. I wish people would have some vision and get ready for it. Maybe they are in the cities, but up in these parts, I don't see it. I see a train wreck coming down the tracks, and everyone is standing in the crossing holding a party.
And the holidays hitting when they do are going to make it so much worse.

Thank god for the vaccine. No one has any new ideas; plans.agree on schools but it’s the teachers that are most of the problem. At my kids’ day care, teacher infections dwarf student infections, though one child has a croup like cough and tested positive.
as for venues...
Restaurants, gyms, hotels pose highest COVID-19 risk, study says
Researchers used cell phone data to map people's movements from their neighborhoods to other destinations.

Problem us we are looking late 2021 before the real benefits of the vaccine are realized. Lot of storage and transportation challenges to overcome due to temperature requirements.
I read wide distribution by spring. Who knows but I’m hoping that’s true
I think restaurants have to be more dangerous because you take your mask off to eat. I remember very early on seeing a diagram of a restaurant and how many people got infected from different tables from the one person. I think restaurants should probably be subsidized for awhile in a relief bill. But schools where outbreaks are practically nil should be able to keep going.
Ugh I miss my gym like crazy. It’s a double whammy with quarantine eating and no gym to go to. I exercise best when I’m held accountable by meeting people to workout with. Some friends have been going, but I’m not.
Agree. My wife is a teacher and staff illness finally pushed us to remote learning this week. We last in person longer than I thought.
