With the Kids Leading the Charge, We Know That the Mask Mandates Are as Good as Over – Opinion

By Pluralist / February 3, 2022

California’s protests against mask mandates in California this month show that they are OK. It’s also letting us know that the mask mandates are pretty much over.

Scott Gottlieb (ex-head of Food and Drug Administration) is joining this group. Gottlieb voiced his opinions on CNBC

Gottlieb said the U.S. shouldn’t wait until what the CDC considers low prevalence in a community — less than 10 cases per 100,000 people per day — to end masking students, teachers, staff and school visitors.

“If we hold out, again, if we wait for 10 cases per 100,000 per day in most communities, we’re probably going to be waiting until the summer; we’re going to lose the opportunity this spring to try to return some sense of normalcy in the schools,” he added, arguing a more appropriate threshold could be 20 cases per 100,000 people per day.

Gottlieb said the CDC’s guidance is “a pretty high threshold in the age of omicron,” adding that agency testing conducted right before the omicron wave showed that 90% of Americans have antibodies against Covid either through a vaccine or infection, or both.

But after Governor Hair Gel showed us his hindparts on Sunday, along with L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti, and San Francisco Mayor London Breed, who shucked, jived, and posed for pictures at the NFC Championship game without masks, it wasn’t just California parents and advocacy groups protesting their hypocrisy; now, the kids are making their voices heard.

Where’s that uproarious cheer GIF when you need it? This little girl should be awarded a medal. As RedState pointed out, Newsom wears the mask when it’s convenient for him or he wants to score PR points, and then doesn’t when it no longer suits him. This is not what Newsom should be doing. Instead, he dances tap, lies and then attempts to deflect attention from his hypocrisy.

Children are saying, “Not today,” and that they’re not the one.

William protested against the school’s mask policy in the heart of Branch Covidian Land, Los Angeles County. He was suspended.

In Oakdale, Calif., in Stanislaus County, a coordinated “Mask Off” helped disrupt an entire school district.

Around 200 students from Oakdale Joint Unified Schools District attended class on Wednesday February 2, without wearing masks.

Part of a coordinated “Let Them Breathe” effort put forth by parents, the students taking part were at all grade levels and in nearly every school in the district. OJUSD Superintendent Dr. David Kline claimed that East Stanislaus is the only one not affected.

“Learning was disrupted, absolutely,” Kline said of the event.

Children who have breathing problems, anxiety or any other medical condition that masks can only worsen, will find their ability to learn is disrupted. But do go off.

For those students that came to class without the masks – currently mandated in California schools – Kline said teachers offered them a mask or, if possible, the alternative of a face shield. The class was canceled for students who chose to not wear any kind of facial covering.

Kline explained that parents were first informed about students being removed from classes. After this, all involved students were relocated.

“They went to the cafeteria, or the gym, an alternative setting,” Kline said.

However, the variety of grades meant that there was not enough time to offer a complete instructional day in these alternative settings. Students with Chromebooks had the ability to do work but no instruction was given for those students who were not masked.

“Instruction is crucial and they weren’t able to do that,” the superintendent said.

Thankfully, it’s not just in California. Washington State also wants those COVID education dollars and American Rescue Plan money, forcing children to wear masks. This young man should be able to join the army, as we urgently need it.

May these young people continue to stay strong, especially with crazed and indoctrinated administrators who wish to label these children a “clear and present danger” simply because they wish to breathe.
