Schools reopened in this town only to go back to distance learning due to a COVID outbreak.

An outbreak of COVID-19 cases in the La Crescent-Hokah High School has sent students home for two weeks

Whoa there pardner. That would endanger the systematic crashing of the economy that is ongoing. Let's not drop that ball now. We're almost there--almost in the economic chitter. It would be a shame to recover at this point.

That happened here a month ago. Students were getting sick. Sure they don't get as sick but anyone want to throw their kid in the COVID pile and see how sick they get and what the long term effects are?

Some children become severely ill with COVID-19. They might need to be hospitalized, treated in the intensive care unit or placed on a ventilator to help them breathe, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

In addition, children with underlying conditions, such as obesity, diabetes and asthma, might be at higher risk of serious illness with COVID-19. Children who have congenital heart disease, genetic conditions or conditions affecting the nervous system or metabolism also might be at higher risk of serious illness with COVID-19

Given your complete ignorance of the concept of risk and acceptable risk, it is alarming that you are allowed to work in health care.

I've got concerts lined up and ready to go --- ready to take trips, etc...all booked and ready.
Most big corporate stores have the maskie sign on the door. Where I live 80 percent walk by those signs without one and the corporations refuse to enforce their own rules. They have the sign up to appease the fearful maskies, they refuse to enforce the rule because they fear angering the public. Corporations have no spine, so basically it’s up to you.

Cruise ships are different because they have the same type of draconian authority over passengers as an airline does. They do enforce every little rule they have.

Libraries and Museums have more liberals in charge than a bar does. One’s opinion on the “rona” has always been linked to politics. It is the fearful left who cry out for masks and lockdowns.
