What sort of alternate universe are you living in???
We had a case in my department at work recently too. The person was in the office and had close contact with multiple people so we have a bunch of people quarantining at home now. When you see companies requiring vaccination it’s not to punish unvaccinated people or take a political stand, there are economic and productivity consequences that can be mostly avoided when everyone is vaccinated.
Unless you really enjoy working in the office vs home, enjoy having beverages close and your own bathroom as well as the fuel savings in the meantime.
Knowing how the trials have been working I think really they are going as fast as they can as safe as they can. We had to do adults first, then kids. The dosing for 12-17 is the same as 18+ the dose for 5-11 is different as is for younger ones.
Shame on you for not having your stack of papers in hand, LOL.
Schools have already started in FL. I have friends with young kids in quarantine already from school.
When FDA approval vaccines for kids age 5-11 for this Fall, as next year will be MUCH better than last year, so COVID-19 pandemic will be over by end of the year or early next year, so you should be okay for your trip next spring.If things will getting worse, the pandemic in USA will be MORE LONGER FOR YEARS TO COME AHHHHHHHHHHHH!! It's like a doomsday is coming to end right about now. Then we all gonna die. The end is near folks. There is no way we will defeat the pandemic now.
Disagree for the most part. Yes it’s very emotionally based on occasions.. and some get carried away at times.. but we have legit doctors in here which I have learned so much from. We have others who provide science based links that sometimes the average person has a hard time finding. In fact I think, for the most part, it’s is scientifically accurate if you throw out the daily person or two that just comes in and spouts things that have been disproven many times over and over.
The good news is that last Summer when schools went back in FL is when the cases really dropped off. I don’t know if that was coincidence and it was just the end of the wave or if it was due to less people getting together informally, but there wasn’t a spike from schools opening last year. That being said, I do think more schools probably had mask mandates last year and more kids went virtual as well and delta is more contagious so there’s some potential additional negatives this year that could result in a different (worse) outcome than last year. Stay tuned and hope for the best I guess.
Yeah, it’s pretty much apples to oranges here right now. Last year classrooms were set up for social distancing, masks were mandatory and scores of kids stayed home and participated in “live via Zoom” distance learning. Today absolutely none of those things are in place here and as has been said local districts have been forbidden from mandating anything. We’ve seen many teachers mask and set up their classrooms for social distancing but others go maskless with students’ desks placed together in pods of four face to face.
I have a (bad) feeling colleges are going to be a bigger story this time around, too.
One big problem: College goes BIG MASSIVE SURGE OF DELTA VARIANTS!

We have lots of family and friends in Florida from Vero Beach area up to Tampa and they don't have any children in quarantine. Just offering a different perspective.
I wasn't trying to give "perspectives" just that if there are kids exposed in schools they have to quarantine and it took a week for that to happen is since kids cannot be vaccinated. It's bad in Florida and to pretend it isn't and that it isn't going to affect unvaccinated kids is kind of not a smart thing to do IMO.
I hope it does happen... I really do. Just like I hope kids get access to shots soon too. I'd have to ask my loved ones about masks this vs last year. One is making best of the situation with lots of outdoor time.
you should’ve seen the political forum before it was shut down, understandably.
Just wait 2-3 weeks........
