White House formally declares teachers are essential workers

Quote
Under Department of Homeland Security guidance issued this week, teachers are now considered “critical infrastructure workers,” and are subject to the same kinds of advisories as other workers who have born that label – such as doctors and law enforcement officers.

The guidance for essential workers states that they can continue to work even after exposure to a confirmed case of Covid-19, provided they remain asymptomatic. Schools’ contribution to community spread has already been a top concern for districts making the decision to open or close, so pushing teachers to continue working after potential exposure could prove controversial.

And news out of Russia:

They are only now beginning their Phase 3 trials.

Nor are they releasing data about their vaccine to outside scientists.

So much for their having a vaccine before the election.

FDA warns about UV lights to disinfect coronavirus and other germs
From CNN Health’s Maggie Fox

Lamps that use ultraviolet light to kill germs can inactivate coronavirus, but they are not all safe and it is not clear how good a job they do at killing the virus, the US Food and Drug Administration said Wednesday.

The FDA said ultraviolet-C (UVC) wavelengths are better than UVA and UVB light at destroying viruses, but UVC lamps still have their limits.

“The effectiveness of UVC lamps in inactivating the SARS-CoV-2 virus is unknown because there is limited published data about the wavelength, dose, and duration of UVC radiation required to inactivate the SARS-CoV-2 virus,” the FDA said in a newly posted statement.
 Plus the lamps only work in limited circumstances.

“It is important to recognize that, generally, UVC cannot inactivate a virus or bacterium if it is not directly exposed to UVC. In other words, the virus or bacterium will not be inactivated if it is covered by dust or soil, embedded in porous surface or on the underside of a surface,” the FDA said.

"If it please the Court, we would like to say in our defense that we deeply, deeply believe in Freedom of Speech. But, Your Honors, these people are criticizing the president on his Twitter account! Surely, the founding fathers did not have in mind to allow that when they created the 1st Amendment!"

I love the mention in CNN that the SDNY only does complete "state's evidence" deals - everything you know, regardless of case.

These things can't be discussed until our constitutional scholar weighs in.

Should be hilarious watching leftists praise the electoral college voting system if Biden wins.

We opposed it when Obama won. I see no reason we would suddenly embrace it if Biden wins.

Your uninformed, heavily biased bullshit opinions are stupid.

After what Ms Harris allegedly did to Black people in the justice system, it's a wonder any of them intend voting for her.
