The children must be protected. They must wear masks on airplanes! Their classrooms must be disinfected!
Our COVID-Busters are out in full force cleaning & disinfecting to make a safe return to the classroom possible.
Good luck to all NYC students & staff on your first day back!#BacktoSchoolNYC pic.twitter.com/yo9P674Z4h

We can’t allow for even a slim possibility that the children will be exposed to COVID19.
Also, professional basketball players will reportedly be able to regularly come into close contact with one another and not have to take any precautions when the NBA season begins:
When the new NBA season begins October 19, players will not have to be vaccinated against Covid-19 to play, a source with knowledge of negotiations between the league and the players' union told CNN https://t.co/b9u6kNrZNR

Allowing for some exceptions, of course, children are the least vulnerable to COVID19. Yet they’re being treated as though they’re superspreaders. Meanwhile, NBA players, as members of the adult population, are more likely to contract serious cases of COVID19, yet there will apparently be no vaccine requirements. And they certainly can’t wear masks while they’re playing!
So what gives?
Bad move from the NBA

The optics aren’t great. Even if most of the players are already vaccinated, shouldn’t they have to abide by the rules the rest of us — including the vaccinated — are expected to abide by?
Way to step up and lead by example @NBA

So how come the federal mandate doesn’t supersede the union agreement & apply to the NBA?https://t.co/KKjycaIrWX

Mandates are for the little people.

But your kids have to, and they must wear masks for 8 hrs
They are playing you and will keep you in fear, don't be such a weak kahba https://t.co/vYToVucGTZ

Exemptions for the millionaires and the politicians, but for people living paycheck to paycheck it's get the jab or starve yourself and your family. Communism is fun.
