“We are seeing a small but disturbing increase in hospitalizations due to COVID-19 among children in Philadelphia, along with more than a doubling of cases in the city,” Acting Health Commissioner Dr. Cheryl Bettigole said. “It’s time for all of us to do what we need to do to protect our city’s kids. That means getting fully vaccinated if you haven’t yet, and it means all of us going back to wearing masks in public.”

As for the unvaccinated, health officials say you should consider double masking while indoors in public spaces, and most importantly, if you are eligible get vaccinated as soon as possible.

And perhaps it will be helpful to allow people from south of the border infected with covid to enter the us unscreened by the tens of thousands then transport them to red states

From the article: “We are seeing a small but disturbing increase in hospitalizations due to COVID-19 among children in Philadelphia... (Acting Health Commissioner Dr. Cheryl Bettigole)

So...the kids were immune until they took the experimental treatments?

That’d be ideal... IF masks were any kind of deterrent to the spread of any virus... At all...

Because wearing a mask has no effect -- none whatsoever, got it?! -- on preventing transmission of a respiratory virus the only purpose of forced masking is as a powerful visual reminder that America is sick.

Oh, America is "sick" alright ... but the sickness has very little to do with the communist chinese virus. Rather, forced masking is essential for the Democrat/communist/Left Party to keep the level of fear, anger and mistrust at a fever pitch as they continue on their designed path of destruction of capitalism and of the American Republic. ... We're running out of time to stop this from happening ...

The vaccine identified obedient citizens—mission accomplished!

Now it is time for those obedient citizens to put on their masks.
