Schools all over America are starting to bring the masks back, and many parents are responding with outrage. After everything that we have been through the past few years, many were hoping that the days of masks, restrictions and mandates were behind us. But now we are being told that COVID cases are on the rise, and many officials are deciding to implement the same measures that they did in 2020 and 2021. If this is already taking place while the number of COVID cases is still relatively low, what will happen if we see a huge spike in cases this winter?

It certainly wouldn’t be a surprise to see kids wearing masks in states that are very liberal, but this is even happening in a deep red state such as Alabama…
Kinterbish Junior High School in Alabama has asked all students, staff and visitors to start wearing face masks in classrooms and hallways ‘due to the slow rise of Covid cases in the area’ since late last month.
Alabama’s Talladega City School district which serves more than 1,700 students has also urged children and staff to wear masks, but stressed they are ‘encouraged but not required.’
In Montgomery County, Maryland, every single child at Rosemary Hills Elementary School will now be required to wear KN95 masks for a period of 10 days. The following comes from WTOP…
Students and staff in one class at a public school in Montgomery County, Maryland, are being told that they must wear masks for the next 10 days after three “or more” people tested positive for COVID-19.
In a letter sent home to parents on Tuesday, Rosemary Hills Elementary School principal Rebecca Irwin Kennedy wrote that KN95 masks would be distributed and students and staff in “identified classes or activities” will be required to mask up while in school for the next 10 days “except when eating or drinking.”
The letter states that after a 10-day period, “masks will become optional again.”
This new mask mandate is being implemented because three kids have tested positive for COVID.
Just three kids.
Conservative radio talk show host Clay Travis posted the letter that was sent to parents, and it is extremely alarming…
Will letters such as this soon be sent to parents at other schools all over the country?
So far, many schools are choosing to take a voluntary approach.
This includes schools in New York City and Los Angeles…
New York health officials are also providing free masks to schools in the state in response to rising Covid rates and absences, while face coverings are being strongly encouraged in some classrooms in Los Angeles.
We haven’t seen a wave of fear like this in a long time.
According to the CDC, the test positivity rate roughly doubled from the middle of July to the middle of August…
Case rates are slowly climbing in the US. The test positivity rate – the share of swabs that come back positive – has soared from 6.7 percent in the week ending July 15 to 13.5 percent by August 19, according to the latest Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data.
Even Jill Biden has tested positive for COVID, and Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre is telling us that Joe Biden will start wearing a mask again “in alignment with CDC guidance”…
President Joe Biden will start wearing a mask around other people despite having no COVID-19 symptoms and testing negative for the virus, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Tuesday.
Even though the president tested “negative last night for COVID-19,” tested “negative again today,” and is “not experiencing any symptoms,” Jean-Pierre said, he will “be masking while indoors and around people, in alignment with CDC guidance.”
Biden will start wearing the mask because his wife, Jill Biden, on Monday tested positive for the virus. The first lady is “experiencing only mild symptoms,” according to the White House.
