LA County School Do Full Masks, Distancing and Weekly Tests!

You’ll notice that there is not ever really a discussion of ending the coronavirus restrictions anymore.

At this point, it’s just taken for granted that this is going to last forever.

Apparently, most people are okay with that, because they’re still complying.

After Los Angeles County reimposed the wearing of face masks, even for the vaccinated, the school district in California’s most populous county has gone a step further, mandating weekly tests for all returning students and staff.

Covid-19 testing for everyone, regardless of vaccination status, will start on August 2, “in accordance with the most recent guidance” from the LA County Department of Public Health,” the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) announced on Thursday.

LAUSD is “closely monitoring evolving health conditions and adapting our response in preparation for our full return to in-person learning on August 16,” wrote interim superintendent Megan K. Reilly.

Previously, the LAUSD required Covid-19 tests only for people who have not yet received a vaccine.

“We believe Los Angeles Unified has the highest [Covid] safety standards of any public school district in the nation. Our preparations for the start of the new school year include continuing to require masking for all students, staff, and visitors; maximizing physical distancing as much as possible; continuing comprehensive sanitizing efforts, including frequent hand washing; upgraded air filtration systems; regular, ongoing [Covid] testing and community engagement; and collaborating with health partners and agencies to support free [Covid] vaccination,” Reilly added.

All of these precepts were written in stone – it is now acceptable that you can require people to do anything based on the theory that it might prevent someone from being infected with the virus.

There can’t be any finality to any of it, because the people have agreed to it.
