"Science is on the side of having kids in schools," you said.

Not exactly your point
Exactly my point

Someone should ask Red what's the # of kids who get infected and infect others, where he might queestion the wisdom of opening schools in late August.

Or what precautions might he take?



what's his tipping point, how many dead kids does it take to change a mind?
He never answered the same question about guns. Dead kids? Freedom!

At least Red's consistent about his indifference to children's safety.

Guns, disease, seat belts, bike helmets, Mountain Dew, predatory Catholic priests.

I wonder what his take is on vaccines for babies?

Trump's camapign rant on WH lawn is quite a show, it's incoherence was impressive.

He made Howard Beale appear cool calm and collected.

That was some ‘Jim Jones on the last day’ level shit.

That was an all-pro level of crazy in the Rose Garden today.

I think it was Jim Acosta on CNN who said (paraphrase) about the guidance he's getting, "the only people Trump has around him now, are drinking Kool-Aid and next of kin."

and even his kin have a sharp knife and a cutting book

"We can't shut down every time we have a cluster of cases," Ms Berejiklian told A Current Affair.
"We can't keep shutting down and reopening, that is not a good way for us to manage the pandemic."

I agree with her.

Had she done the lockdown right the first time, there would be little need for another.

But she didn't.

She did really, overall, had to get the new cases to zero in NSW, which she did.
There was, still is, a "National Cabinet" for the pandemic...Prime Minister, Fed Treasurer, Fed and State Health Ministers, and all State Premiers and whoever runs the Northern Territory these days.
All get together virtually, every Friday...decide what to do.

Can't keep having total lockdowns, but businesses not obeying the Covid rules should be shut down for a time.
Pubs, clubs, anyone...two have already been fined and had their trading licences suspended for weeks, months.
Others just fined...and put on notice.

That's not what the article said, Ward.

And it isn't true.

Oh, forget it. Not an honest bone in your body.
Ill gladly forget your dancing around the Science

"the Science"

You have no science. No citations. No studies.

And the data is all against you.

How many kids are you prepared to sacrifice on the altar of your beliefs? How many dead kids is it worth to you in your opinion to have the schools reopen?

This is what happens when govts bow to protesters and lose the streets/society;

A man has been charged after allegedly punching a female police officer in the head multiple times, leaving her with facial lacerations.

The man was not subdued when police used pepper spray, and allegedly continued to punch and knee the 47-year-old senior constable. Picture: NSW PoliceSource:Supplied

More kids were murdered in American cities last weekend than have died from months of COVID-19. The  biggest threat to the well being of poor kids is to NOT be in school..

That claims 177 deaths for the week of July 4, while not having anything after July 4. So, its data is seriously broken.

Even so, the answer is you are comfortable with 6-17 dead kids per week from COVID-19 during the school year. Roughly 200-600 dead children is fine with you.

Even if they were yours?

And that assumes that when we leave them together 30+ hours per week that they won't spread to each other, their teachers, or their families more.

You are a sick puppy. Go back and read what Israel found from opening their schools, Ward.

Shithead-What's your magic # for dead children that you might reconsider your mantra pf re-open schools?

Or sick teachers, janitors, kindly cross-walk monitors, bus drivers, cafeteria workers...

Or what precautions might you take?

At what point do you stop being a dumb fuck and realize you are following an insane inept puppet clown?

Such idiocy has consequences.

If perps are properly jailed, COVID-19 becomes another reason to not commit a crime.  As is - less arrests are leading to more bad behavior.  s is early COVID-based release

Come on, governors - get yor shit together
