#1 Could make them sick.

Could? You pulling stuff out of your ass Bambi, or do you have some actual facts to back it up?

We spending billions on your worthless feel good project again? Oh wait, it is more shovel feeding the unions taxpayer money so they can donate to the dhimocratic party next year. Fucking thieves.

#2 He has to come up with something to scare us into doing things his way. What better than our children?

#3 Meanwhile, Reason Magazine shows that those laws mandating smoke free bars and restaurants had no health impact at all, statistically, while data from a few places was cherry-picked to create a false impression that it did matter.

In other words, they lied, thus taking away the right of business owners to decide if they were going to permit smoking or not in their own business.

So, now that it has been shown to be a lie, will business owners get their rights back?

Don't bet on it. Once rights are stolen, it often takes human blood to get them back.

#4 Clearly, we need to stop ventilating schools if it makes students sick.

#5 The new schools I notice have no windows you can open. That alone is terrible. With enclosed environments at some point you will have problems.
Air filtration systems and purification a must. Any building or conveyance that warehouses people must have environmental controls. I don't care for O's timing. Just trying to make points somewhere.

#6 Wait a second, was this at that school the other day? You know, the one which was closed at 13:00 on a Tuesday. Looked to me like they closed school for a Pass this Buck chirp speech.

#7 Dale: In an epidemiological study, it was determined that open windows are a much better choice than air conditioning when pulmonary communicable diseases are around, and it is temperate out.

The measured volume of "fresh air" circulating is far higher than a/c, even if the a/c uses filtration and UV sterilization of the air.

Additionally, at least for the influenza virus, they know that its optimal air transmission is at 40F with low humidity. With increased temperature and humidity, air transmission of the virus rapidly declines, and it becomes far more reliant on contact contamination.

There have also been studies done on different surfaces and how long pathogens can exist on them. As well has how effective different types of decontamination are on them.

This immediately resulted in "desiccant paint", that looks and acts like ordinary paint, but rapidly dries out liquids, oils and greases, as well as any pathogens that land on it. It is even deadlier to pathogens because it is basic, with a high pH of about 9, like baking soda.

#8 If conditions were favorable, our Teachers would ALWAYS keep the doors open to the open air. And what the hell is a President addressing such a lowly subject anyway?

He is a stupid A-hole.

#9 Let them have school vouchers so the parents can determine which schools make them sick or not.
