No, I said that I didn’t want to be the bad news side of things, and proceeded to report on some of the new less than ideal information regarding asymptomatic people and a lack of immunity. The vaccine is still our best hope.

“To be very clear, we don’t want CDC guidance to be a reason why people don’t reopen their schools”
 
So sayth the nimrod leading our virus response.
 
As a former teacher, I’m livid that they’re reopening schools this year. There will be blood for this, mark my words.

Too bad the vast majority of the country’s wealth is in the hands of 1% of the country and not being used to make those who need the money to survive a pandemic.

Virginia has now adopted one of the strongest worker protection orders for covid.
 
Requiring all businesses with customer facing roles to provide their employees with masks, set up hand sanitizer stations for both employees and customers, a dedicated set of cleaning regulations, and enforced social distancing rules for businesses that can effectively do it.
 
It also now requires all employers to notify all employees within 24hours when a member of staff tests positive for covid.
 
Those who test positive will be put on leave for at least 10 days, and they cannot be terminated due to a positive diagnosis.
 
 
Virginia is, as always, doing our own thing while 90% of the rest of the country fucks off.

Drama in the comments

Where I live some people wear masks, some don’t. I always put one on inside public buildings. We shut down early and hard for a while (there was no actual provincial level lockdown but everything shut down anyway) but we’ve mostly opened up since then and things seem to be going fine.

Just hours after Walmart announced its face covering requirements, Kroger (which owns Smith’s Food and Drug) now also has a face covering mandate. Seems the private sector is stepping in where the federal and some state governments have failed.

A second official has come out and said that “Science should not stand in the way” of opening up our schools.

Victoria has over 2000 cases - over 300 in one day - while the rest of the country combined has less than 100. There is also now a ban from using shops and walking tracks that are farther away than the ones closest to you. I feel that Melbourne is doing so badly Australia should pull a Bir Tawil and declare us Terra Nullis. Split the rest of the state in two along the M31 and Barnawartha Creek or whatever it’s called (assuming it has a name), and put new capitol offices in Moe and Warrnambool.
