North Carolina's incredible 2021-22 season:
▫️ Spoiled Coach K's last home game
▫️ Upset No. 1 Baylor
▫️ Beat arch-rival Duke again in the Final Four
▫️ Went 5-1 in the NCAA Tournament
All with first-year head coach Hubert Davis.
For those who don’t agree that the vaccinated can return to pre-pandemic normal, I ask: What should we all do? Perpetual masking? Forever not dining out, avoiding large weddings & indoor gatherings, etc? Virtually everything has risk, and zero covid is not a viable strategy.
In Catalonia 🇪🇸, 6yo wore masks in schools but 5yo did not
A brilliant team used this to see what effect mask wearing had on #COVID19 transmission
Finding: No difference between the two groups
Conclusion: No meaningful effect of masking school children

@pmccall777 @MayorEONeal @CityofDurhamNC@bitesofbullcity Yes - places still doing take out only, plus mask mandate plus vax card required at several places just equals barrier that feels cumbersome, even tho we’re vaxxed. Worth the drive to Raleigh to relax and enjoy a night out!
Mecklenburg County Health Director Dr. Raynard Washington says the mask mandate did not result in a lower impact of Omicron surge for Mecklenburg compared to surrounding counties without mask mandates #MeckBOCC
@Tigana99@NinthStreetWatc Patience? @CityofDurhamNC it’s been 2 years. I want to exercise without a mask. Health is about more then just the absence of Covid, when vaccines are widely available. 😡
Kids are locked out of school, locked out of learning, locked out of their childhood.
Celebrities and media personalities and hypocritical politicians are partying like it’s 2019.
That should disgust everyone.
If you consider yourself to be (a) evidence-based, (b) open minded, and (c) are advocating for ongoing masking of kids all day, please read this article and consider.

The widespread availability of vaccines also raises an ethical question: Should children suffer to protect unvaccinated adults — who are voluntarily accepting Covid risk for themselves and increasing everybody else’s risk, too? Right now, the U.S. is effectively saying yes.
