Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s (D) administration recommended Friday students continue wearing masks in the classroom next school year.
The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) issued a “layered” strategy in guidance to school districts.
The agency indicated the top priority is “promoting vaccination,” followed by “face masks;” “social distancing;” “COVID-19 screening, testing, and contact tracing;” and “maintaining healthy environments.”
MDHHS published a graphic likening mitigation measures to a holey piece of Swiss cheese. Each of them individually would not stop the virus from spreading (including masks), only all five would smother the spread, it implied.
“These vaccines are the reason transmission of the virus in Michigan is at the lowest point in a year. However, as the school environment brings together large groups of individuals who may not yet be vaccinated, MDHHS is issuing this guidance to help protect Michiganders of all ages,” Whitmer’s chief medical adviser, Dr. Joneigh Khaldun, said.
The recommendations are “designed to protect students, teachers and staff, and maintain in-person learning,” they said.
Student advocacy groups did not praise the recommendations.
“Gretchen Whitmer is recommending districts force kindergartners and elementary school students to wear masks at school next year, but she’s wrong,” Great Lakes Education Project Executive Director Beth DeShone said.
“The science is clear and it’s unambiguous. Vaccination rates are rising, and young children are at by far the lowest risk of contracting, experiencing serious symptoms from, or transmitting COVID-19,” she said.
DeShone said “parents have had enough” with Whitmer “telling our kids what they can do, when they can do it, and what they have to wear — without any scientific evidence to back her up.”

No matter WHO (or the WHO) the scienctists are, the SCIENCE says:
Kids
Don’t
Need
Masks
And based on the number of pathogens recently discovered on kids’ masks they are MUCH better off without them.
And I am not even going to START with the MASSIVE psychological trauma of keeping kids away from other kids.
The helicopter parent has given way to the foxhole parent.
Get those conditioning muzzles off of little kids.
She doesn’t give a damn about children’s welfare. She’s a GD’ idiot.
And I recommend Gretchen Whitmer go fornicate herself.
Wretched wHitler is the most EVIL psychopath in the history of my state. But you already knew that didn’t you?
Ah, the party of science never disappoints. Stay tuned for upcoming classes on phrenology (to be taught right after the Critical Race Theory and flat earth classes).
Oh, for the “advanced” publik skool student, there will soon be lessons in perpetual motion and socialism. Oh, forgot, that socialist crap has been around for some time.
Masks worn for extended periods of time are unhealth for children and adults. Masks are not effective at stopping the CCP virus. It is that simple and all you need to know to make a decision to never wear a mask.
She’s pure evil as politicians go. What society and government has done to our children is sickening.
A true witch.
Parents, what more do you need to see...
Frau Whitler just likes the control.
Masks don’t work and she knows it.
We all need to tell these Communists to FO.
Does this brain dead zombie understand the “vaccine” concept?
Rather witchy of the old bag, eh?
what about “Science”?
She can’t help but continually to mess up her state.
She’s seems slightly cracked in the head. How the hell did she get elected? I assume election fraud like here in New York?
Masks today!
Masks tomorrow!
Masks forever!

Good luck with that, Duckie....
Meanwhile for our local TN schools, next year is just 6 weeks away....
