Politico NJ Murphy plans to announce students will be required to wear masks.
NJ.com- Gov. Phil Murphy will announce New Jersey students in grades K-12 will be required to wear masks at the start of the school year due to the rising number of new cases of the coronavirus, NJ Advance Media confirmed.
The governor will unveil the new rules during a public event Friday, and after saying the state didn’t plan to require masks, two sources with knowledge of the governor’s plans said.
Murphy said as recently as last week he would leave it up to individual districts to determine their own face-covering rules. Murphy, however, has said that could change if COVID-19 cases continued to increase.
It’s unclear how this will affect school lunches when masks must be removed to eat. The governor is scheduled to be at an elementary school in East Brunswick Friday afternoon for “a major public health announcement,” according to his schedule.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced last month that it is recommending that everyone in K-12 schools to wear masks to fight the spread of the delta variant. The American Academy of Pediatrics also recommends face coverings.
The CDC said that’s because children under the age of 12 in America are not yet eligible to be vaccinated.
Opponents of masking in schools argue that children are much less likely to catch severe cases of the virus. But officials stress that children can still pass it to teachers and family members who are more vulnerable. Nj

really?? calm down!
ReplyDeleteSo the children can infect the teachers who are required to vaccinate. So why exactly are we vaccinating? There seems to be a rush to push to vaccinate before the data of it's ineffectiveness becomes prevalent.
ReplyDeleteThe vaccine doesn't work, the numbers didn't go down, people aren't dying less. lalalala, I am keeping my fingers in my ears and sticking to my original opinion.
