The red state die off that conservatives are now attempting to blame anyone but themselves on was the most predictable thing in the world as we watched the vaccination rates come in earlier this year. In a month or two, I suspect that devastating Covid numbers from school outbreaks will be the next totally predictable thing that conservatives will try to blame everyone but themselves on. There are some really worrisome factors lining up. We haven't really tried to open schools in the Covid era, so this is all uncharted territory. Delta and whatever coming next being more communicable and possibly more severe for kids. Kids under 12 can't get vaccinated. And on top of that, you have red states playing political games to see who can out stupid one another. It's been days since I read about that Texas rule saying schools don't have to inform parents when there is a positive case in their child's class and I am still stunned whenever I think about it. How that can be allowed is staggering. We have become numb to this type of thing after 4 years of Trump but if that type of willful negligence is not breaking some kind of law, than the law and system as a whole has failed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mclumber1 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Our daughter started fifth grade today in Nevada. There is a mask mandate for everyone at school, plus she already had COVID earlier this summer, so I'm feeling pretty comfortable sending her to school.

There absolutely will be a ‘school outbreaks are happening because Democrats allow DREAMers into our schools’ tweet. I’d bet all of @sblfilms money on that happening. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nokra Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Not sure if it's better to put this here or in the CEB community thread, but... I mentioned a couple pages back that a couple of my conservative, anti-mask, anti-vax family members caught COVID. One of them had a monoclonal antibody infusion and then IV fluids at least twice so far but seems to be on the mend. The other aunt and uncle I have no idea, haven't gotten any updates from them. Guessing they're not too bad or else I'd hear about it, but who knows. I also learned that one other great uncle (my grandma's brother) died of COVID a few days ago. He was a sweet, funny guy in his late 70s that was always so kind and charming in a quirky way. He was fully vaccinated but had had other health issues (including a kidney transplant a few years ago) and he had smoked for decades before finally quitting maybe 15 years ago. Pretty sure he caught it from the uncle and aunt that are going to be just fine. Sigh. I mostly feel bad for my grandma. Meanwhile, my younger sister refuses to get vaccinated because she doesn't trust big pharma and is trusting her immune system to get her through. I'm sure in the morning I'll feel better, but tonight I'm just so tired of people being selfish assholes. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamusha Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 My sister didn’t get vaccinated over concerns it would effect her ability to get pregnant, wherever she got that idea, and caught COVID shortly after moving to Texas. She’s doing okay, but she has to return to work now because it’s past her 14 day quarantine and she said she still hasn’t regained all of her energy back. I really hope she recovers, and was sad to hear how she was don’t, but I’m still disappointed in her from doing her part to prevent this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
