Yeah, my dad's test took 11 days. Its ridiculous and useless. By the time you get the results to warn others you had it it's too late and they've probably spread it themselves. The only same looking choice is to have everyone who has been remotely near you get tested the second you might have symptoms and go in for a test which: 1) exacerbates the issue 2) lol good luck asking your workplace to lock down without a test result.

The school thing...like it's not a deal where we're like "here's the clear solution they're just not willing to undertake it" like UHC or police reform...I legit have no clue what they should do. I feel like the school year is going to be such a wasted year anyway that they should just like, cancel school for the year? Obviously that's impossible for all kinds of political and social reasons, but other than that I have no idea.

I can't speak for everywhere, but I've definitely seen organized school and club sporting events going on for a month or more since Labor Day. Crowds in the stands, kids practicing together, etc.

Obviously that's impossible for all kinds of political and social reasons, but other than that I have no idea. The solution is to shut down and implement comprehensive testing and tracing. Enforcing mask laws and gatherings are also part of the equation. On their own, the schools have no way to be successful with the options they are currently being given. This year is going to put a lot of children behind I fear.

TBH a lot of texans my dad's age want it to be cancelled more because he doesn't want to see players taking a knee instead of, you know, the pandemic. That's very frustrating to hear considering he almost died from the drat virus.

Yeah, regularly, at school stadiums. I'm sure it's all "unofficial," but I grew up out here, and 30+ cars in the lot with 50 people in the bleachers and kids in the field ain't a pickup match, heh. It's not necessarily a scheduled event, but it's definitely organized. EDIT: My sense of what I have seen is that some of it is essentially summer practice for the fall sports being done under the table, which actually happens every year, and some of it has been like club sports using municipal facilities. I think at least in Galveston County they've crackeddown on using those facilities, and that may be true over here also, but let's see what shakes out over the next week or so. EDIT EDIT: Oh whatever the gently caress. I've lived abroad for 14+ years, labor day is in May everywhere else. Since the holiday in loving May. How about that.

Obviously that's impossible for all kinds of political and social reasons, but other than that I have no idea. I really have no idea what we're supposed to do this fall. I think cramming kids back into classrooms in a month and a half is a bad idea, but canceling in-person classes altogether introduces enormous societal problems that we have done absolutely nothing to prepare to grapple with. Every alternative to in-person classes is inferior in terms of education, but education isn't really what most parents are thinking about when they demand that schools be open - they're thinking about childcare. And if our society's primary mode of childcare isn't there this fall, there are a lot of working parents who are about to be put in an impossible situation. This crisis has completely upended the way we've organized childcare, healthcare, and employment in our society, and we haven't even begun to reckon with it.

Pretty cool that we hosed up our response to the virus so bad that school is about to reopen and we are in a worse situation than ever. There is no response to this in capitalism other than let people die and to those in power that means the poor must die.

Do we even have a food distribution system that could handle everyone* being welded into their residences for 3 weeks straight? Maybe, but if we were competent enough to pull that off without leaving people to starve we wouldn't be in this mess to begin with.

ReindeerF posted:Oh I would totally live there, I like South Texas. It's like West Texas with better food and more water, but the medical care is the specific contributing issue I was referring to. It's not just due to stereotypes and predatory behavior, there are very real business reasons for it in addition to social reasons on the medical side, not the patient side. Unfortunately, in our system, money affects provision of healthcare, and what I meant was there aren't enough doctors or facilities, especially good ones - if you want patients, the Valley has them, you can go offer care there and stay busy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1EUT1h9gEQ
