Coronavirus Epidemic, Part 2

[MacZC7]

Just received an email from McKinney ISD that even though the majority of parents want their children back in school (instead of online), MISD has went against their wishes and is mandating online for first 3 weeks.
I called the City to find out Covid death rate for City...24 to date...population 190,000 +/-
Of the 24, 9 I know of were in April at a nursing facility.
This nonsense needs to stop!

Gather up some other parents and stand up.

Sounds like a job for the PTA

Houston ISD is doing 6 weeks online, at the start.
Supposedly open up after labor day.

All schools in Nueces County are doing the same per orders from county health dept.

Unfortunately the PTA at the school is a bunch of stay at home soccer Karen's.
No board meetings to attend, all virtual. Calls to Supers' office no luck.
Looked into the charter school, too late for that (over 200 on wait list)

So everyone remains good and pissed off, I’d like to remind y’all that nobody anywhere has actually discussed a framework for how we get from here to this time next year; I get that everyone is looking one step forward to a vaccine, but producing 335M doses doesn’t happen overnight...at 1M doses/ day, that’s still 11 months of production and knowing that about 150M flu doses have to be made each year as well.

Seems like the only plans right now are to just keep kicking the can for 18 more months.


But what do I know?

The main difference is population density, no?

The hospitals were really fucking up, too.

And Cuomo was turning nursing homes into death camps.

Woman running at an outdoor track in WA, got into a verbal argument with a guy who wasnt wearing a mask....

Not advocating this. But maybe she won't be so quick to run her mouth to a stranger who was minding his own business

People...lots of people are at their limit on this crap..
You dont know who is a hair away from losing their temper..

Life is like a box of chocolates.
Don't be a Karen.

If the chart is accurate and my math is correct -

Death Rate per Million Population

NJ 18/100ths of 1%. 1 death per 567 people
NY 17/100ths of 1%. 1 death per 599 people
Both less than 2/10ths of 1 %

USA 4/100ths of 1%. 1 death per 2400 people

FL 2/100ths of 1%. 1 death per 4878 people
TX. 1/100th of 1%. 1 death per 8695 people

Because acknowledging that they will be doing this for the next year and a half will send everyone into a frenzy. I've already resigned myself to the fact that my life won't be somewhat normal until I'm in my 40s.

Just wait until you get near 50 and beyond...everyday is an adventure into something new.

By the time you get into your 40s everything you consider normal will be "old school" and you'll be a "boomer" if you expect things to stay that way.
