The Deniers told us COVID doesn't hurt Children

[CaptainObvious]

Six to eight THOUSAND people die of drug overdoses every month, most of them young, many only school age teens. It's been going on long before Covid and will last long afterwards. Priorities people, priorities.

The school districts in Georgia near major metro areas which defied the state legislature are having limited issues. At least Kemp backed down and is leaving the mask mandate decisions up to school systems (unlike DeSantis in Florida). Here is a county-by-county outline for north Georgia. Note that Atlanta schools with a mask mandate is having limited issues while other unmasked districts on the list already have significant issues.

Several school systems such as Gwinnett imposed mask mandates after the CDC altered guidance or after the school year got off to a very bad start.

Other school districts such as Cobb which has refused to adopt a mask mandate while their school board members spout anti-vax nonsense -- now has parents taking their children out of these unmasked schools.

You're still not giving me an example of a school that is doing OK because it has a mask mandate from the start. Third or fourth request.

You're trying to hide and make general claims, where is your case study? Which school should we look at?

Europe doesn't mask school kids? What a bunch of anti-sCIENcerS!

You do realize that the European CDC and WHO do not recommend holding in-person schooling when the local positive test rate is above 5%. Most European countries stick to this recommendation. If your local transmission rate is low then it is likely your schools do not need masks. However it your local positive test rate is 19.3% (like Florida) then your children better wear masks or your school will have significant problems within a week.

Is Atlanta shutdown yet? Do they have a large number of quarantined students in remote learning?

Tampa isn't shutdown either. So by your argument if Atlanta is fine, we are too. Can't name a single school district, can ya. fifth request.

Are you trying to claim that that Tampa does not have a large number of students in quarantine?

All I'm asking is for you to back up your claim that schools that have a mask mandate are doing fine and not having students quarantined. But you can't do it, can ya

Note that school districts requiring masks from the very first day of school are not having this problem. Only schools districts not requiring masks are shutting down totally or have large numbers of children out in less than a week.

I have stated the school districts with mask mandated do not have large numbers of students quarantined, nor are they shutdown. Many school districts which started the school year without mandated masks either have closed or have large numbers of students out in quarantine -- all within less than a week of opening.

You claimed schools that followed mask mandates didn't have those issues (students quarantined). Its right there in your text.

You haven't listed any examples of successful schools. Sixth time I've asked.

If you want to do this the right way (you don't, of course and we know why) you show a sample of similar size districts that followed mask mandates, and ones that did not, and the PERCENTAGE of students quarantined as a result.
