dying civilization o’clock who up
love how people got so mad about being asked to wear a mask that public health just stopped existing
They’re gonna make sure we never have an appropriate response ever again.
Everyone is just going to be sick, all the time, forever, and people are going to forget that there was once a time when being sick was unusual.
but with more tears.
Yeah, we could have re-opened them safely with air filtration and n95 use. But it’s cheaper just to say “fuck it” and get everyone sick.
You greatly overestimate the hygiene and discipline of children
It helps greatly if the community is also taking measures.
Right now, even with just with air filtration, studies estimate it cuts down the spread of disease by 20%.
That’s why you put good filtration systems in the buildings full of infection generators
Yeah that’s why you never get sick from planes

A school is a closely packed environment where people stay close to each other without really wearing masks for extended periods of time. After that, they have physical contact and eat without masks as well. You can install the filtration system at the cost of the art program and computer lab but that’s not going to fundamentally change the nature of schools. Also schools have people sit near each other and use toilets.
They’re not going to do it at the expense of the art program and computer lab. Those programs were axed long ago in much of the us.

how did you tell it was the plane and not the airport?
Or people in general. Just walked into the bathroom at work and there is snot on the wall above the urinal. Only adults work here.
I still remember when that fuck gave the all-clear to re-open everything and ban masks but if you wanted to interview him you needed to test negative three days in a row and wear an N95 outdoors.
Curious.
They’re gonna make sure we never have an appropriate response ever again.
There wasn’t even an appropriate response the first time
True.
Can’t wait for mpox+bird flu to ravage the country while we’re still forced to continue our lives like nothing is wrong.
If your responses is comprehensive then schools and everything should have been shut down for 6-12 weeks while people are tested and quarantined.

Only reason I finished highschool is one teacher spoke to all my others because he knew I was falling asleep in class or just not showing up because I was working full time and doing community service to stay out of jail. In a just society children don’t work to put food on the table, they may or may not get community service as a reform attempt, but not while working and being in school, during the summer holiday or something for heaven’s sake. He was so proud when I showed him my SAT/ACT results. Glad he never found out I got kicked out of my first college for being an insurance risk and never did anything with the second go around. Don’t major in English or History folks.
Anyway, we do not live in a just society, so thank fuck for people who chose to simply ignore the rules.
Can we talk about just how expensive lice are? A bottle of lice shampoo will easily set you back USD 40 and that is gone quickly if a kid catches lice and the entire family needs to be deloused.
That is a lot of money for a lot of families. And if just one kid doesn’t get their lice treated it will keep reappearing again and again, causing discomfort, inconvenience and expenses for everyone.
$40? That’s craaaazy. It’s like £5 over here
Just get the ivermectin. It’s way cheaper and OTC
You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.
sorry parliamentarian says macroscopic ectoparasites on your children
I breezed by this post the first time because I just assumed it was a humorous followup post to the covid guidelines
Next they will suggest the children simply pick the bugs off of eachother and eat them.
No, that would be communism. The kid should pick their own bugs off themself

At least they solved the lice problem
sprinkle some lice on whoever is in charge of the CDC, see if they change their mind
Well they would just stay home. Going on about your day is for the poors.
No taking off work.
Are these decisions made for the purpose of intentionally making kids sicker at this point? Or is Nurgle worship becoming fashionable?
schools are daycares. parents with sick kids call off of work or otherwise stay home to take care of their children instead of going out/consuming/producing. this is unacceptable. therefore, the kids have to be in school, healthy or not.
Public education should be more than that, but prefers daycares that moonlight as obedience schools. Part of why I retired early.
honestly if Nurgle were real i’d give Nurgleism a serious consideration. Yeah you’re eaten to death by millions of the most pestilent plagues imaginable, literally rotten in every aspect of body and being, BUT
It doesn’t kill you and it doesn’t hurt and Nurgle seems like a p. good guy when you don’t factor in the ever spreading hellplague
Like Grandfather Nurgle seems like a kinder god than the Abrahamic one, imo
(P.s. I really like characters like Nurgle, like he’s evil but he’s not at the same time, idk, it’s a bit more complex than if he just wanted to kill everyone with disease and that makes it interesting.
Same reason I like Stagnate, the God of Undeath in the anime The Faraway Paladin, like, she’s “evil” because everything she does perverts the very fabric of reality by upending the natural cycle of life and death, but she’s doing what she does because she genuinely cares for people, especially heroes, and wants to both give the opportunity to defy an unjust death as well as preserve the thing she finds most beautiful- a truly heroic soul. LOVE IT.)
Fauci confirmed as archpriest of Nurgle
Someone has stock in NIX
I was going to write “how long until an active school shooting is not an excuse to leave school early” but then I remembered the cat litter thing.
I LOVE SPREADING DISEASES
accelerationism is the only option
The burden of missing school days due to nits far outweighs the minimal risk of transmission, especially when the lice have been treated.
The real burden is a society that values productivity over people’s health.
