New York state providing COVID tests, masks to schools

New York state will provide COVID-19 tests and masks in school districts amid a recent spike in cases over the summer, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) announced Tuesday.

The announcement also comes after the recent discovery of the BA.2.86 subvariant in New York City’s sewage, according to city officials.

Hochul’s office Wednesday said the state will conduct outreach to the Education Department and Boards of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) to determine each district’s needs for the test kits and masks, including both N95 and KN95 masks.

I would guess no, but it was something you started with.

Because that's what generally follows. It's almost like I've been down this road many times before or something, isn't it?

I don't know about your road, and I'm no fan of generalization. It's hard to talk with people online if you expect the worst from others. I would say the chance people arent shit is better than 50/50 and i would always gamble on it. Obvious trolls are obvious, the rest is more how you feel about it.

Obvious trolls are obvious

...says the person who started this by trolling with "Let’s all be scared!"

In contrast to your "Not a good sign."

Yes, I know why you were trolling.

If i was trolling were you at least slightly fearmongering?

Whether I was or not, that does not excuse it.

Making an innocent reply on the internet forum?
