You all have gutted Obamacare.....the article says UNINSURED.....those people that refuses to get insurance.

.......yeah because the penalty was making everyone rush out to buy insurance

Who needs insurance?
Capitol Recap: Georgia hospitals financially hurting from COVID-19

I used to have a high opinion of Emery Hospital. Till my sister-in-law started going there for Leukemia treatment. They suffer cause they suck. Their care of her is inexcusable. They are an inept cluster f*** of a hospital.

have insurance no penalty.....so your stance is that if there were no penalty, then people would buy insurance? What people were doing was passive aggressive defiance?

they can wear clothes without being in full uniform. The Shelby County school system is a majority of underprivileged kids and impoverished families. It's bad enough they are telling most of these poor parents they have to keep their kids home 5 days a week while most likely also maintaining hourly jobs that don't allow for remote work, now they are expected to purchase school uniforms when they aren't physically in school.

I don’t think you read the whole article

my point still stands, if they are concerned about what they are wearing they should have school in person

Look I want schools open. But you got to have some kind of guidelines. Like I said you don’t want kids attending online virtual classes in their underwear.

You're very illogical. How does one correlate to the other?

It's amazing that in 2020 Science has regressed to something we read on an absolutely idiotic Facebook meme.

The vast majority of the individuals refusing to wear a mask is clearly based on hours of scientific inquiry on their part If wearing a mask is some ill conceived political ploy, what exactly is the goal of it? Jedi mind control? The mask deniers like to pretend those who do choose to wear one really enjoy it and it’s no inconvenience for them at all.

The nepotism surrounding Kushner’s role in this White House really is indefensible. He has no business running any kind of government program or foreign policy and especially overseeing any kind of government response to a health pandemic.

Most online learners are using a software program or Google Classroom, you can host a chat or hangout with a video feed for all of your students at once but what would be the point? It would be impossible to help that many students at the same time. You are correct though, there are always those students who will wear something goofy or inappropriate if you aren’t careful with a live stream.

So there is no landing place between underwear and school uniform?

I disagree I don’t think those of us that don’t walk around with one on care one way or another if you like your mask or are comfortable in it . I personally don’t .

hence if other people wore masks as well.....the key word in that phrase is MAY. If we are facing each other talking, and you are wearing pants and I am not and I pee, you MAY get wet. However if we are both wearing pants and I pee, I will only pee on myself, you will not get wet.

Sometimes the CDC recommendations are held up as absolute science, but around here it's just as likely to be dismissed as hypocrisy in the same sentence.

I'll just offer this other observation.. if the virus is found in mucus and flem (snot and lugies), and either of those come flying at you from an infected person, and the mask stops it from hitting your face, mouth or nose. Saying the mask didnt offer some protection is arguing that once the mucus or flem hits the mask, the virus flies off and through the mask and lands on you, anyway.

Arguing over the smallest particle size that the virus can be transmitted is just ignoring the largest virus containing globules.

Did you read the article? I assume no. The superintendent said they were moving to come up with guidelines at the next meeting. Those guidelines would not include khaki pants or collard shirts. I swear most of you only read headlines.

And arguing over any of this, knowing viruses have been around your entire life, just means you have a different arbitrary threshold than others.

There is no good leadership from either party and that is apparent.

Hello. There is only one party in leadership at the moment. The Republicans. And it’s all on their lack of leadership

 

[PointGuard]

That's an inaccurate article. "Aerosols" are much smaller than the filtration capability of cloth masks. This is exactly why N95s and respirators were invented and used by those at risk of inhaling viral particles and their associated aerosolized droplets, which have evaporated to much smaller diameters as they travel from the expeller.

In addition, there is little to no data demonstrating the safety of wearing a cloth mask to the wearer. The constant touching/wiping/adjusting of the mask absolutely has the potential to increase risk of infection. If you don't believe me, come spend a day in the office with me and observe.

I know this may cause some to challenge their preconceived beliefs, but it will take critical thinking to emerge from this crisis.

Fortunately it will come from others

Mitch McConell and the GOP Senate yay it day in and day out. He is sitting on bills that need to be passed and refused.

Were any of those protestors at the Tulsa rally? If not, I fail to see how it's relevant to the discussion about the likelihood of Herman Cain being infected at a near-maskless rally that also saw 8 of the president's campaign staff infected, along with a noticeable jump in cases in Tulsa.

I'm bringing up the protesters to determine whether this is about C19 or politics. I think I have my answer.

As to the Tulsa rally I think it's quite likely that there was some spread of C19 there. That's a chance every attendee took by attending. I'm sure Herman Cain knew that as well as anyone. There's really no story here

"Bills that need to be passed" is your opinion but not his. You might think that money paid to unemployed people that exceeds their normal salaries qualifies as a "bill that needs to be passed" but many of us tend to differ
