Home school me brah ... for the goverment all the kids sent to school are test subjects...they wont,dnt,couldnt careless whatvhappens to them

sht, yeah thats true. my kid is starting kindergarten. fck it im going to look at alternative options and see what i come up with.

maybe i can have the teachers send lesson plans. i could teach my kid the sht pretty easily i bet with the downside being that my 9-5 is pretty damn challenging

*edit
holy sht im seeing rumors that my district will go 100% remote. based on my new train of thought...maybe this is best.

I think a lot are going to end up doing this

We were given the choice. 100% in person, or 100% remote. Initially no masks were to be required, and of the first batch to respond, 25% chose remote and 75% in person, but then they changed to requiring masks and word is more people are choosing remote now that and because masks are required. lol. People have said that to. Went from sending kids in, to not, because they'd have to wear a mask.

CA shutting back down for the most part

Why can't the weak stay home? If protests are allowed, everything else is fair game. Glad to be living in GA, and glad i voted for Kemp.

[Ephedra]

Absolutely pissed CA is closed again. We had a ONE DAY spike July 8th with deaths probably carried over from 4th of July weekend and that was Newsom's excuse to close.

Cases are going up and our death rate remains relatively the same as the last 3 months.

CA 17.7 deaths per 100k vs NY 277 per 100k.

Let the political chit show continue.

Newsom's loophole for keeping the riots and protests going and to not offend the barbarian mob is to only close all things INDOOR.

Looters can continue lootin' bro while only being 3" from each other.

ah so thats what happened. it's all fcked up but at least a decision has been made i guess.

It's all bullsh!t. We barely even opened. LA county has never even lifted the stay at home order yet. They want our economy to crash badly

Trump's fault, obviously

But don't worry, they'll follow Nashville and one up a bit, probably increase property tax by 40%. Might exempt POC from increase though.

Prop 13 prevents that. One of the very few Cali tax laws that serves the people.

I think the problem isn't so much that they don't want masks, but that many children don't understand and just want to rip that crap off. My 3 year old is like that. My 2 year old is somehow pretty good about it tho. I imagine getting 3 calls a week to pick of your kid cos he's not wearing a mask isn't an ideal situation...

[WeDoPullups]

Anyone wanna guess how many viruses that modern medicine has completely eradicated?

Anyone?

[Johnez]

Fuuuuuuuq...Newsome just shut down gyms and barber shops again!

Fukking hell. I knew I shoulda got a fresh cut before this again....

[Johnez]

wow that is one of the most fcked up things that i have seen. they are straight up sharks

i swear to god if i lose my job or get furloughed then the country says, "oh btw we're hiking your taxes because we're hurting"
oh man, it would be hard not want to fck sht up however i could. sorry, but if i get fcked like that then i might want to see the world burn.

Something both liberals and conservatives can fight against. Who knew city govt could be this braindead.

[chalup]

None, right? We can't.

[WeDoPullups]

None, right? We can't.

You’re one off. We took care of smallpox.

Listening to people saying not to open up until a cure is found makes me wish another virus that actually has some punch to it comes and kills us all.


And thank you Newsom for closing down Cali again. He has our best interests in mind and we should trust him.

[R3L3NTL3SS]

At this point there's absolutely nothing that can convince me that further shut downs aren't 100% political and has zero to do with "saving lives".

Yeah I seriously don't get it. Closing gyms and bars but not walmarts makes zero sense any way you look at it. At this point just do everything you can to minimize overloads of hospitals and make the sickly and elderly stay home. So many people are going to lose their business's and houses at this point. Shutting back down isn't going to do ANYTHING. Do they have any plans besides shutting down again? Any? I mean we need to shoot for herd immunity at this point and proactively get people on HCQ as soon as we can.

The youngest that would be relevant to this is probably 5 year olds in K, and considering it goes all the way to 17/18 year old seniors...

"Completely eradicated" is a really high threshold though.

What do you consider for, say, Polio? OG SARS? Tetanus? Rabies? The MMR triumvirate?

What do you think the "need a cure" people would say and do if covid-19 became as prevalent in the US (and other developed nations) as polio?

[Farley1324]

Yeah I seriously don't get it. Closing gyms and bars but not walmarts makes zero sense any way you look at it.

Yes, it does.

You don't have to go to the gym to not-die. You do have to buy food to not-die.

There is absolutely logic to it. Is it worth it? Should it be done? Totally different questions and answers, but, there is absolutely sense to the differentiation

[5x10]

Talked to my old work out partner today and he got the rona, along with his family
Said he felt tired for a few days, head was outta wack, hard to think straight at times
Worst his wife got was loss of smell/taste
Daughter was asymptotic
Son had allergy like symptoms

Guy is 59, high blood pressure, had a heart attack a couple years ago

[Johnez]

Schools gotta deal with Karen's tho and the fact that precious Jimmy with allergies is at risk when Tommy doesn't wear his mask right at recess....

I mean half the adults I'm coming across have a problem with it, imagine a teacher dealing with it lol. Kids aren't known for total compliance....

[maverickTT1]

No more protests and rioting and taking down statues i hope, since the virus is so scary and cases are sky high. blm stay home.

They’d still spew the same bull**** because their minds are riddled with fear. Don’t move the goal post chief. A vaccine would do **** all as well but I’m sure you’d be first in line to get it. We’ve all seen the great success with the flu vaccine!!

Droplets vs. Aerosol study.

A good read.

https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...rticle/2768396

All told, current understanding about SARS-CoV-2 transmission is still limited. There are no perfect experimental data proving or disproving droplet vs aerosol-based transmission of SARS-CoV-2. The balance of evidence, however, seems inconsistent with aerosol-based transmission of SARS-CoV-2 particularly in well-ventilated spaces. What this means in practice is that keeping 6-feet apart from other people and wearing medical masks, high-quality cloth masks, or face shields when it is not possible to be 6-feet apart (for both source control and respiratory protection) should be adequate to minimize the spread of SARS-CoV-2 (in addition to frequent hand hygiene, environmental cleaning, and optimizing indoor ventilation).

A cousin of my wife is an infectious disease expert PhD and creates policy, her husband is a Microbiologist PhD. She shared this with us.

[chalup]

Yes, it does.

Why not make it delivery only? Boost a growing business model as well as keeping people gathered in large stores? Make all the other business's suffer, im sure walmart can figure out a way to make it work. Essential items only as well such as toilet paper food etc. I get your point, but I think they could change it a bit.

I have no idea what you're talking about. Goal post? In line? What?

...why not pass a law that says you must pay more money for your groceries by paying for delivery (it's not free)?

...because many people would scoff at a law that makes basic groceries cost more. Because not everybody lives where delivery even exists. Because there aren't enough delivery drivers even where it does exist to support them and only them going to the store and nobody else being allowed in.

Trying to compare closing grocery stores to closing gyms, as you were, is even more fuking retarded than when you ban bet we'd have fewer than 6,500 deaths by September. You just gotta stop

[HtotheOV]

got tested today. I guess I got the good doctor because my GF said hers just jammed the swab right up her nose. mine was slow and nothing. hope she did it right lol.

could be up to 7 days for results
