Anthony Fauci, President Biden’s chief medical adviser, said Thursday that schools in the fall should be open “full blast” five days a week after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced that people who are fully vaccinated against COVID-19 resume life without masks or other restrictions.
When asked by host Jake Tapper on CNN’s “The Lead with Jake Tapper” if he agreed with CDC Director Rochelle Walensky and the president of the American Federation of Teachers that schools in the fall should be 100 percent open and in-person five days a week, Fauci said he did.
“Yeah. I agree with that. I believe the schools should be open five days, full blast, just the way it was before," Fauci said. "We really have to do that by the time we get to the fall."

Wow! The crisis dissipates as fast as the made it into crisis.
Yep. Took about 48 hours for them to do a complete 180 on what they have been saying for the last year.
Exactly. It went from maybe full time, we wold have to watch the data and it was too soon to decide. Then less then a week or so later, masks aren’t needed. Science!
The shots don’t really work very well and the plan is to blame the un- vaxxed... and require vax passports.
Won’t be able to blame the unmasked anymore.
Road to the mark.

Thank you oh thank you almighty fauci thy mercy knows no bounds and your kindness shines upon us all. We are scarcely worthy of thy gifts to us pitiable payers of taxation.
They will not be. I’m in CA with teens and following things closely. California Community Colleges—all 100+ of them—are offering only maybe 20% in person classes for Fall 2021. And Cal State campuses—there are 23 of them, serving millions of students, are still offering maybe 50% hybrid/in person for Fall 2021.
And K-12 teachers unions are lobbying for 3 days a week in person only in CA for Fall 2021.
Maybe but on June 15th there is supposed to be a big announcement from Newsom that everything is going back to normal, no restrictions. He may move this up with yesterday’s announcements. This is a fast changing story so we won’t know what is happening next. A week ago they were saying no changes until maybe Mother’s Day 2022 or later.

Weingarten’s union is under fire as top Republicans on the House Judiciary and Oversight committees have called for an investigation into the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention after emails showed the American Federation of Teachers lobbied the agency on school reopening policies.
House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, House Oversight Committee Ranking Member James Comer, R-Ky., and House Education and Labor Committee ranking member Virginia Foxx, R-N.C. penned a letter to the CDC accusing the agency of putting “political obedience to Democrat-aligned special interest groups” ahead of “our nation’s youth.”

Fauxi is the worst sort of tyrant
Fauxi will oppress you, cause it’s for your own good and he is trying to help
He has to stick his nose in it.
Been like that for 6 months here you little commie. No masks, no distancing, no outbreaks. FAUVID
