February 15, 20223 yr As I mentioned Friday, my youngest's school announced the decision that masking was now optional. About a week before they had sent surveys to parents and staff asking our feelings about masks in the school. The results of that survey is what led to the decision to make the masks optional effective immediately. Here are the results of the survey: 91.7% of Staff support going "masks optional” 43.8% immediately 47.9% when the county mask mandate is lifted* 74.1% of parents support going "masks optional” 58.5% immediately 15.6% when the county mask mandate is lifted That's pretty overwhelming. Honestly, the percentage of the staff who voted for optional kind of surprised me. All of that said, those who think that it's only "a few parents" who are complaining and want the mask mandates ended in schools are lying to themselves, and being lied to by those who tell them such.

Sounds like the far woke left

I don't think anyone would presume money to be an issue here, but it's obviously going to affect what he can accomplish during his career if he's unable to compete in the biggest events. I'm sure he still wants to win more grand slams to solidify his legacy.

His career is literally to compete in tournaments. Sure seems like forgoing that is a far larger detriment to his career going forward. 35 minutes ago, The_Omega said: His stance is not that difficult to understand. His stance is stupid if he thinks anyone with any ounce of intelligence actually believes he's not anti-vax. He should just be honest and say he's more scared of the vaccine than of covid. Still a stupid stance but at least it's rooted in honesty. Seems like honesty isn't something he is really comfortable with though.

He's not, he's fine with anyone deciding to get vaxxed, he's just decided he's not going to get the Covid vax. He's pro choice. You're anti-choice and will throw out whatever misleading label you want to against anyone who disagrees with you.

February 15, 20223 yr It's almost like I've heard this before from another brain-dead moron... https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/article/jenny-mccarthy-were-not-an-anti-vaccine-movement-were-pro-safe-vaccine/

February 15, 20223 yr He's a healthy young athlete that's already caught and recovered from Covid. Coronavirus poses absolutely zero threat to a guy like him. Plus, we already know that even being triple vaxxed has virtually zero bearing on whether you catch or transmit Covid, so it's really a completely retarded rule meant to be punitive towards people for thinking a certain way. There's absolutely no reason not to just allow him to present a negative test and compete, but almost none of the pandemic has been guided by science so why start now?
February 15, 20223 yr Ah the cognitive dissonance on both sides is just so predictable. The ATP and the Grand Slams are private organizations that can have whatever rules they want. If you don't want to follow the rules, then you can't compete. That goes for Novak not wanting to get vaccinated and Naomi Osaka not wanting to fulfill required press obligations. Left -- Osaka is being unfairly targeted, but Novak should shut up and get the shot Right -- Novak is being unfairly targeted, but Osaka should follow the rules of the tournament SPOILER ALERT -- both of them need to accept the rules of a private entity or not compete

I'm criticizing the policy itself. It's completely retarded for obvious reasons.

February 15, 20223 yr Holy eff. The Canadian government is threatening to arrest tow truck drivers who don't want to tow protestors. Insanity.

February 15, 20223 yr My school is dropping their mask requirwment on Tuesday but still "strongly encouraging them." Anyone testing positive, though, can't return before 10 days unless they test negative.
February 15, 20223 yr FYI, we got our 4 pack of free government issued Covid tests yesterday. Just in time for the Omicron surge to be over.
