Recommending current guidelines to go through August 2nd. 

 

Numbers aren’t going to change a lot in a short period of time and winter is supposed to be “worse.”  I sure hope these kids get some games in.

I agree and when everyone starts getting together in school there will be another "spike" and then there is the whole influenza thing.  Unless the powers that be change their thinking it's going to be a long, hard ride. 

I’ve been hopeful the whole time but as of this morning I’ve changed my mind I don’t think there will be any chance we play football or basketball this year because this stuff ain’t going away. Now that being said I think it’s been blowed up to something it is not yeah I’m sad for the people that lost their lives but a lot of those people were in really bad shape if you just take the relatively healthy people I would say the death rate would be really low so once again if people with underlying issues stay home leave playing sports to the healthy young people but that doesn’t seem to be the way it’s being looked at so once again I don’t think there will be sports until at the very least March of next year if then so I really wish they would quit acting like there will be fall sports two or three weeks ain’t going to make that big a difference

"I think" isn't really a good enough reason to plunge forward.  While kids are certainly less impacted by this, there are too many adults involved in high school sports who may be more threatened.  Coaches, officials, trainers, etc have to be considered in this.

Right, less impacted as not near as much as influenza.

If we are going to be consistent in class school is done period.

Is there anyone in the at risk category or with loved ones at risk who balk at wearing a mask? 

If you had a loved one you live with at risk, how would you feel about wearing a mask?

From another thread... Anybody?

Full Board Meeting. Will vote on recommendations.

I think basketball will be ok because of vaccines and monoclonal antibody treatments will be available by then.

But when is enough enough if we continue the way we are going we’re not going to have to worry about it because there’s not going to be any business’s left if they’re really so concerned about everything why don’t they shut the whole country down for a couple weeks like other countries have did because I got news for everyone what we’ve been doing ain’t working. To continue to do things the same way and except a different result Is ridiculous.

I hope you’re right trust me I do but to this point I’ve not seen anything to give me any hope.

From the Great Google Machine:

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.

These words are usually credited to the acclaimed genius Albert Einstein. What do you think?
