That's ok because Trump tweeted bad stuff.

From today's KCS superintendent email:

Lastly, the Board of Education’s appeal of the mask mandate injunction continues with the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals. That Court Clerk gave notice this week that oral arguments in the case have been set for May 4, 2022, at the 6th Circuit Courthouse in Cincinnati, Ohio.

I.e.: students will be in masks for the rest of the school year.

So frigging ridiculous. Everyone needs to just band together and say F-it.

That will end the stupidity for sure.

Funny. 2 weeks ago (with the old science), 98% of the US was in a high/red transmission area.

What can they do if you refuse?

They punish the children. Now, as a parent, I refused to wear a mask inside last week at a music performance and so did many other parents. People do need to refuse, and they need to be willing to stand up for themselves.

How are the children punished?

They send them to in school and don’t allow them to do any school work, and after so many days of that they are suspended from school. Some schools weren’t even giving children access to lunch. There are so many illegal things going on due to this mask mandate.

Yikes. School meals are the only guaranteed opportunities to eat for some children.

Parents need to band together and refuse.

US typically a few weeks behind. But ... with weather warming, will be interesting to see how it impacts US.

Shoddy chart you have there so it's hard to make sense of it but for sure you're giving the wrong impression. According to the following, cases peaked in Europe in late January and have been SINKING ever since. In fact their numbers are less than half what they were on Jan 31st:

Europe: COVID-19 cases by day | Statista

It does not show a new wave at all

Well…the change in policy here has been because of the apparent “decoupling” of cases versus hospitalizations/deaths. Topol has also been tweeting about UK reporting more incidental Covid hospitalizations and current infection fatality rate below that of normal seasonal flu.

So, if cases and severe disease/deaths have been decoupled through vaccines and natural immunity, then maybe this next “wave” of positive cases will be the end of testing except for those requiring treatment.

Just stopped in to see if you were still pushing the "covid and death is near" tweets and yep.

I'm curious exactly what would they classify as misinformation at this point. Pretty much the majority of what mainstream media has reported about covid has turned out to be misinformation. Are they still trying to sensor Ivermectin and other proven treatments? If so, this is criminal on the part of our government.

President Biden’s surgeon general on Thursday formally requested that the major tech platforms submit information about the scale of Covid-19 misinformation on social networks, search engines, crowdsourced platforms, e-commerce platforms and instant messaging systems.
A request for information from the surgeon general’s office demanded that tech platforms send data and analysis on the prevalence of Covid-19 misinformation on their sites, starting with common examples of vaccine misinformation documented by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The notice asks the companies to submit “exactly how many users saw or may have been exposed to instances of Covid-19 misinformation,” as well as aggregate data on demographics that may have been disproportionately exposed to or affected by the misinformation.
The surgeon general, Dr. Vivek Murthy, also demanded information from the platforms about the major sources of Covid-19 misinformation, including those that engaged in the sale of unproven Covid-19 products, services and treatments.

Local Walmart no longer requires employees to wear masks. I bet that had to feel good hearing that as an employee. About time.

I signed up for Walmart+ and just let them deliver crap to my front door, so I never have to walk into the store ever again.

One of the good things to have come from the pandemic. I rarely go into stores

Gone in my kid’s HS several times. Did not wear one. Still, does nothing for the kids.

What if parents pulled them all out of KCS?

Are there still Churches in Knoxville. How many kids can you cram into the church gym for history class?

Many have or will, but only a very small amount can do that.

It’s gotta be free. In the short run. You pull enough heads out and KCS will break.

No access to lunch = neglect.

If they don’t get the federal assistance for head counts they will.
