Dr. Anthony Fauci Says Vaccinating All Teachers As A Prerequisite For Reopening Schools Is A ‘Nonworkable Situation’
Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious disease expert, said during a Wednesday interview with CBS that vaccinating every teacher before reopening schools is a “nonworkable situation.” Fauci, the Biden administration’s chief medical advisor on COVID-19, told CBS This Morning that while teachers should be a priority for vaccinations, he did not recommend that schools make teacher vaccinations a prerequisite for a return to in-person instruction, and referred to recently released Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines. Tony Dokoupil, co-host of the show, asked Fauci to explain the White House’s plan about returning younger children to classrooms by the spring. Fauci said that while the final decision is up to Biden, he believes the plan is to adhere to the CDC’s guidelines on school reopenings.

‘Ignorant’: Spurs’ Gregg Popovich Blasts Texas Governor for Ending Mask Mandate
San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich ripped Texas Governor Greg Abbott for lifting the state’s mask mandate on Tuesday and vowed that his team would continue to mask-up. Abbott used Texas Independence Day, March 2, to announce that the statewide mask mandate was over and that all businesses could open up without restriction. This news did not sit well with “Pop,” who used a portion of his press conference after the Spurs 119-93 victory over the Knicks to bash Abbott’s “mystifying decision.” “As far as the players go, we listen to the NBA, not the governor,” Popovich told reporters. The future Hall of Famer went on to criticize Abbott for “act(ing) like the pandemic is over… when all the science tells us the opposite”. “We already went through this once, and now we’re gonna to do it again? There will be more infections one would think,” Popovich lamented. “It puts a lot of businesses in a tough spot I think,” the coach continued. “They’re trying to do a good job keeping … [Read more...] about ‘Ignorant’: Spurs’ Gregg Popovich Blasts Texas Governor for Ending Mask Mandate
