Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf (D) intends to allow school districts to modify or end mask mandates for K-12 students starting on Jan. 17.

Wolf’s administration imposed a statewide mask mandate in September, citing the surge of infections and hospitalizations from the highly contagious delta variant of the novel virus, according to the Associated Press.

“Now, we are in a different place than we were in September, and it is time to prepare for a transition back to a more normal setting,” Wolf said in a statement on Monday.

Should be effective immediately. Mask optional ASAP. Kids are getting speech delays, tooth decay, acne. And can’t smile at or hear their teachers or each other. And try learning a foreign language in high school without the teacher seeing the students’ lips move and without the students seeing the teacher’s lips move.

And we need to get the kids back in the cafeterias to eat instead of outdoors in the rain like animals.

Yes, surge in cases of the Delta variant That doesn’t appear to be more deadly, and in particular, it’s almost nonexistent threat to children Or anyone in relatively decent Health who isn’t 50 pounds overweight.

I am willing to bet they will find a reason to extend this again citing people being inside more during the winter, etc. Lol get moved to spring time, at what point they will say well, just received the better end the school year with everyone still wearing masks. Next year we can get back to normal, trust us this time

No, The Doctors, Who Opposed Lockdowns Aren’t To Blame For Lockdown Failures!
The Federalist ^ | November 8, 2021 | Martin Kulldorf

Excerpt:

While the professional Zoom class of administrators, managers, journalists, scientists, and other professionals worked from home and arranged new schools, private schools, tutors, or home schooling for their children, working-class children and families bore the brunt of both the pandemic and the lockdowns.

To paraphrase Grim, today it may be “extreme” to defend children and essential workers, but it should not be.

The Covid restrictions have affected everyone, and they are the biggest assault on the working class since segregation and the Vietnam War. The damage done cannot be undone. We should hope though, that in the future, lockdown proponents will at least have the decency not to slander or blame others for the catastrophic lockdown policies they advocated!

The surge should be increasing at its maximum, about then - at least nationally. Odd timing.

Yes to the acne. My 15 yr. old grandson was just talking about it yesterday. He was out of school for a week(for reasons I can’t say)and his acne cleared up, now after back in school for a week it’s back.

Wolf is a scumbag who knows how to read the political tea leaves following the shellacking teacher’s union puppet board candidates received in school board elections throughout the Commonwealth last week.

Oh? What "different place" is that? COVID deaths and cases are higher now than when school started.

This guy lies every time he opens his mouth.
