Two months ago, when the CDC updated mask guidance saying most who are fully vaccinated could go without masks indoors, the guidance moved so quickly that administration officials were informed less than a day before.

Why the hell would anyone listen to the government about mask wearing when the southern border is wide open to illegals who don’t wear masks and many of them either refuse vaccines or have COVID? Good luck enforcing this STUPIDITY!!

No shoes, no shirts, no mask no service! We're all obligated to do what to 'Stop The Spread''!

SheIsBeauty101 Der... should have been mandatory and PROPERLY worn the entire time.

Anti Vax folks need to be rounded up and caged.

Why is CNN still spreading the lie that it’s all because of unvaccinated people? Do you understand English? Vaccinated people are spreading to disease also. What’s wrong with these people?

Both my pre-teen girls have no issues with this. They wear it in the car on the way to school.

I followed all the rules. wore the mask. got the vax....and I'm really getting burned out on this stuff....

Probably better for kids to catch it and get natural immunity, they themselves are at minimal risk.

Only you can put a smile on my face when i’m sad..

It should be mandatory for all schools.

No.

Delta Variant! Hilarious. Please provide the type of test/ methodology that provides +/- Delta variant results. Pls explain the genome difference in the fake variant vs Covid Classic. Kids can continue to whear cloth coverings that allow virus particles to flow freely in and out!

No.

Lol joke

This administration, Fraudci and the CDC are a complete joke. Thank you for confusing people. Why should we believe anything you say?

Yeah tell that to the governor of Oklahoma! 🤷‍♀️

I mean I definitely agree, when I was in school a few years ago there were literally forty of us crammed in there and we kept getting sick, the flu, stomach bugs, like as much as people hate masks kids are too packed in there to not be wearing them, like for al reasons

Agree!

This should have been the case for the duration.

Even he saw this one coming…

WEAR MASK WILL PROTECT U AND EVERYONE 🙏

Why should I wear a mask if I am only contagious to people that is not vaccinated. Of course I will adjust for kids. But seriously, why am I being punished for people that do not want to get vaccinated.

Obviously this is so new to this country and ALL precautions should be used to protect ALL PEOPLE for the sake of us ALL and the sake of this country! Namaste'

See no purpose of getting both shots after all. Putting everyone through that for nothing!! GOVERNMENT 😣🤬😡

I like Frances approach. The unvaccinated stay home. Not me. I did what was right for my country to move forward. They r Trump supporters who think he cares for them. Trump is for Trump.

The same people who will whine and complain about this are the ones responsible for it. We could have been free if not for the anti-vaxxers choosing to be breeding grounds for variants.

Unlike the leader of the Baldwin County schools in Alabama where the variant is surging at an unprecedented rate.

. Take your kids out of these indoctrination camps soon as you can.

These cloth masks seems to be the miracle cure, why the need for the vaccine?

CDC and Fauci are incompetent, criminal, political and malicious on how they have provided 'guidelines' to the country. I say, do the opposite of whatever they advice!

Smh. These poor children

Oh hell no! The cdc needs to go into the schools and teach while wearing a mask. They also need to experience the special education classes. Then they might mandate vaccines and we wouldn't have to wear a mask because they would be evaluated by our test scores.

Hey GregAbbott_TX . Why not listen to your OWN CDC.

そうだぞアメリカ

back to online school!

It's about time.

Tell that to Stitt in Oklahoma

This recommendation means nothing. The CDC needs to mandate it or no school in a primarily Republican area is going to require it. I’ve emailed the board and the Superintendent even to ask if we could have a classroom that’s masked students only. Nope. No masks unless mandated.

It’s a competition between the teachers unions and the CCP to determine who is actually running the CDC. It plainly isn’t the CDC.

Morons...a new policy every 3 days 🤦🏽‍♀️

😂

“But Donny Says “

Think of vaccines as guns and masks as body armor -then one has a fighting chance to win this war-against an enemy that can mutate to overcome our defense shields.

C’mon

Survey: Parents Split on COVID Vaccination for Kids Under 12In this June survey of more than 2,000 parents with at least one child between 3 and 18 years of age, 49% parents with kids aged 3 to 11 said they would likely get their child vaccinated, while 51% said they were unlikely to do so. CmiloseMilose Some parents need to go back to school. Facts: 300 kids died of COVID without vaccination. 4000 kids died of car accidents. Should we also ban them from cars? Keep them in a box?

Symptomatic breakthrough COVID-19 infections rare, CDC data estimatesNationwide, approximately 153,000 symptomatic breakthrough cases are estimated to have occurred as of last week, representing approximately 0.098% of those fully vaccinated, according to unpublished internal CDC document obtained by ABC News. This is just awful and irresponsible. We have no idea how many vaccinated cases have occurred. The CDC is not having us report them. Notice please, they say “estimated” but give no methodology for their estimation. This is just not true. That’s 0.098% is an amazingly low percentage. Not even Point 1 %!

CDC expected to backpedal on some masking guidelinesThe nation’s top health agency is expected to backpedal Tuesday on its masking guidelines and recommend that even vaccinated people wear masks indoors in parts of the U.S. where the coronavirus is surging, according to a federal official. How about masks everywhere to PREVENT more people from getting it? This reactive catch-up game makes zero sense. Is CDC about politically appeasing or protecting public health? “Back pedal” aka responding to the facts on the ground. What a shit headline. 'Backpedal' is a weird way to say adjusting guidelines because people are not taking this pandemic seriously and don't listen to the CDC. Do better.
