Over 800 new cases today in Iowa

and my small town says they are going to be doing classroom teaching in August with optional masks and extra hand sanitizer.

I don't know that my 6th grader will be participating in that.

My oldest two are going to UNI where they plan to start classes early, in person, with mandatory masking and social distancing except in the dining halls and the dorms. They are both in marching band which probably sprays lots of particles into the air (200+ kids).

And yet, people keep saying "well, it's a hoax" or "it only kills a few people".

Just needed to get that out among those who might understand.
