Who here thinks it's the right move to remove mask requirements a couple months before vaccinations take a much stronger hold across the population? After nearly a year, they choose now. I really want to know.

At this point it is dumb. I do hate masks, but we know they do work, to some degree. I am hearing Biden wants to mandate masks until mid 2022 which is completely nuts. When 75% of the POP is vaccinated, then yes, get rid of masks.

I officially know 3 teachers that got Covid on vacation. Mexico? No, but the Caribbean.

He has no power to mandate masks outside of federal buildings and interstate air travel. All he can do is urge people to wear them. It’s up to the states/localities and you will see more and more especially in the south drop mandates in the coming months.

According to monstermagnet, we heard it on Faux news so we must be morons.
When my 1st grader had his class sent home for 1 week because the assistant was positive, its not that hard to see where she was vacationing. All stupid young people must instagram their life because YOLO.

Nice spin, nice victimhood, no link. Typical. The closures in my district came from weekend events and sports. Yours apparently from the mass vacationing going on (we all know the airlines are slammed with vacation travelers, lmfao). Got it. Whatever, doc. Here's a tip...go to the next BOE meeting and ask why they didn't quarantine when returning from vacations out of the country. See, anytime someone says Faux news, you immediately know they are full of beans. Don't blame the news for your own ignorance. Find better and more varied sources.

You truly are clueless. Yup, no one is traveling As stated, these morons post their vacation on IG, and FB. I also personally know 3 teachers that went on vacation that got Covid. I guess you want me to post their ss# and mothers maiden name for proof.

My local school district sends us a daily notice of the number of kids/staff associated with the school who test positive. It is a few new cases each day. My dingbat neighbor thought this meant they caught it at the school. Not a student of logic, obviously.

So far (not a surprise) no transmissions in my local district schools. The kids /staff are masked and separate to the greatest extent possible.

On another note, it appears the subject of this thread, the Gov, is starting to feel real heat to resign. Accuser 6 may have tipped the balance. (CNN has boycotted the specific accuser 6 groping allegations for 48 hours but if you get your news elsewhere and know the specifics their puzzling current headline now makes perfect sense: “Majority of New York congressional Democrats call for Gov. Cuomo's resignation”.
