Zornio: School is back in session and so is COVID-19. Should kids be masking up again?
School is back in session. There are new classrooms, new students, new activities, new teachers and new subjects. There’s also Pirola, a new COVID-19 variant.
If that sounds lame, I agree. We all wish the virus would just go away. But that isn’t happening yet, so we’ve got to talk about it.
First and foremost, admit it: You clicked on this column with your mind already made up. Pro-mask or anti-mask doesn’t matter. What matters is that you likely have a preconceived notion of what the right answer is. In true school spirit, I challenge you to be open to learning and changing your mind.
