So 3 hours ago our gov made the annoucement:
"It has been a long pandemic, and our students and teachers have borne their own unique burdens throughout. This virus is increasingly impacting young people, and those under the age of 12 still can’t get the vaccine for themselves. We won’t gamble with
the health of our children.
K -12 educators, staff, coaches, bus drivers, volunteers and others working in school facilities will have until Oct. 18 to be fully vaccinated as a condition of employment. This includes public, private and charter schools. This does not impact students, regardless of age.
Childcare providers affected by the requirement include:
• Licensed, certified and contracted early learning and childcare programs
• License-exempt early learning, childcare and youth-development programs
• Contractors (coaches, volunteers, trainers)
We are also instituting a statewide indoor mask mandate to all individuals, regardless of vaccination status. We have seen over the last year how widespread masking also saves lives by reducing infection."
There was a protest in the capital building while he held the meeting over this. So many fucking entitled people saying that this is tyranny, "freedom and rights" and all rhe other BS. What pissed me off more is that there was kids of all ages there too, even babies. Everyone unmasked. Fuck those selfish fucks for exposing those kids. Fuck each and every one of them.
