The SEC will need more officials. Maybe they're wanting to get hired by the SEC and so they don't want tape of their bs floating out there? Who am I kidding, we're still going to get screwed.
Have any of the school districts with mask mandates said what the offramps are for eliminating their mask mandates?
"We'll eliminate the mandate when we reach 75% vax rate in the school district or two weeks without a positive case in a school's zip code"
Wouldn't that avoid the circus of doofuses (doofii?)
We're arguing about stupid shit when we could tie actual metrics to things that people want.
"If you eat five more green beans you can have dessert" works pretty well with my kids.
Yeah, and I think using Arizona's definition, that would count as only one "outbreak" despite the fact that it took out half a grade. It's all fun with numbers.
Eh, an alternative headline from that AZ dataset could be "Over 75% of schools without a mask requirement did not record a single covid outbreak over a six week period, even as cases rose in the community" It's all lies, damned lies and statistics.
That study should be easy to repeat and should be repeated now that cases are going down. If that 3.5x is true, we should see it again assuming no major policy changes. Because the definition of "school outbreak" is shaky, the question should be "is a kid safer at school (mask or no mask) than out in public?" You'd really need to be diligent about contact tracing though and compare against community case rates. We don't do that.
So basically it's "get a booster if you want" somewhere around 5, 6 or 8 months from your second dose, depending on who you ask. And if you don't want a booster, you're also probably fine against severe illness.
A co-worker of mine's wife is a teacher there. I don't know the answer to that question
Yeah, I tried looking it up. That's a no man's land of data.
Best I could find was from the Tyler Telegraph: "In one week, the rate of community spread of COVID-19 in Smith County has decreased by more than 37%, the Northeast Texas Public Health District reported Thursday."
What's the chapel hill area covid slope look like? If was going up and kids cases are going down, now that'd be something. But more likely is the school district trend followed the gen pop.
I've been surprised at our turn outs for the first two games. I thought for sure a 100 degree game 1 at 3pm would keep people away. I was wrong. And again, I thought the arkie loss would keep people at home. Wrong again. There were definitely empty patches around the stadium, but I was expecting much fewer fans in seats.
Hey Brazil, On Austin's surveillance dashboard, they have a map that shows zip codes with the highest counts in the past 7, 14 and 21 days. (Spoiler, it's always Pflugerville) In your reporting to us, are you able to find that dataset of positives by zip?
Isn't the upper deck right above the students also a student section? That was completely empty for most of the game. Likely because they were all jammed into the lower section, which I understand.
Ok, but I keep seeing this type of stuff from my twittersphere as to why we don't necessarily need boosters. I need more cartoons to tell me what's correct.
