With a new strain of covid-19 (BA.2) there is a thought that it might be the new dominant strain in California. So was it a good ideas for the state to have a no masks required in stores, schools, and restaurants? #mchslang23

[The Press Democrat @NorthBayNews]

BA.2, which is believed to be more infectious than the original omicron strain, has been shown to cause more severe illness. It is thought to now be the dominant strain in California. https://t.co/AjeLGn0jVx

Is is a good idea for people to now provide proof of vaccination yet? What if there are people who are not vaccinated but come in without a mask, how will they handle this situation and how will this help covid cases? #mchslang23

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

Starting Friday, San Francisco will no longer require people to provide proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test to enter indoor restaurants, bars and gyms.

There are now new buildings that will help the people who live in cities to get help faster from earth quakes and that are designed to withstand the sea levels. How will this improvement help cities with natural disaster and will this help save more lives? #mchslang23

With people adjusting to working from home and not going to work, are there going to buildings for offices now? How will things change for people who want to go to work or people who don't want to go to work? #mchslang23

[The New York Times @nytimes]

Remote work gave many people more flexibility and a reprieve from office politics. It also made clear the office was never one size fits all. It was one size fits some, with the expectation everybody else would squeeze in. https://t.co/zATuEV3ojU

[Soham B @sohammmy]

How will this effect the economy and how will people react to this decision? #mchslang23

A lot of places are starting to lift their mask mandate but the TSA is not willing to yet. With many people saying there are air filters on planes and it should be safe, is it a good idea to go this far and take of masks on planes? #mchslang23

[Insider @thisisinsider]

😷 Across the US, mask mandates are being lifted by retailers, colleges, theme parks, music festivals, and even state governments.

✈️ But that's not the case on airplanes, where the @TSA is still enforcing a mask requirement on all commercial flights.

San Francisco public schools have decided to keep indoor mask mandate. Some families are happy with their decision and some are not which is creating tension among parents. What could be the best decision for this dispute? #mchslang23

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

As California starts to limit micro plants in the sea what will be the effects of this? Also where will we start putting the other plastics?#mchslang23

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

California is set to become the first state, and maybe the first place in the world, to try to limit microplastics at sea. https://t.co/5j2R0SyOIv

[Soham B @sohammmy]

With the mask mandate being lifted it puts people at risk from health problems already but now with new variants of Covid-19 coming, was it really a good idea? #mchslang23

[COVID NEWS NETWORK @COVIDnewsfast]

BREAKING : Another worrying variant is emerging in Denmark, BA.2 + H78Y, has appeared in recent genomic surveillance, with a mutation found on the ORF3A spike protein, which is believed by many experts to induce apoptosis in cells (cell destruction) (chart from @DrEricDing )

[Soham B @sohammmy]

As there is a new building in San Fransisco, it really helping the city. Because of the pandemic people have gone remote, so are buildings like these necessary until most people go back to working in offices? #mchslang23

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

The only major new San Francisco office tower completed in 2021 has snagged its first tenant. The home service platform, which went fully remote during the pandemic, is using the space as a collaborative work environment. https://t.co/1xvlfdU0wC

[Soham B @sohammmy]

How will this change how many COVID-19 cases there are in California and will we be able to control the amount? #mchslang23

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

OPINION: Lifting the California mask mandate basically says chronically ill and disabled lives don’t matter. https://t.co/EBceIVb1tS

Is there any way we can control how smart we make it or to the control the AI with a remote switch? #mchslang23

[Soham B @sohammmy]

As AI is advancing like robots and voice/virtual smart assistants like Siri are becoming more developed and scientist are becoming scared that it will be "the last event in human history". #mchslang23

Do we have to start using better make to slow down the Omicron cases or is there anything else that we can do? #mchslang23

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

There is no consensus for the general public on the number of times you can rewear an N95, KN95 or KF94 mask, but it’s not just guesswork.

You should base your decision on a number of variables, experts say. https://t.co/a5MMkPq8eO

[Soham B @sohammmy]

With lower rates of hospitalization of Omicron cases how can we start improving the amount of cases and slow down how much it spreads? #mchslang23

[San Francisco Chronicle @sfchronicle]

The omicron variant is associated with lower rates of hospitalization and ICU admission, shorter hospital stays, and less need for mechanical ventilation compared to the delta variant, according to a California study posted Tuesday. https://t.co/zM4VwJfd2j
