I Take The Above Position Because It Has Been Reported, By The State Of South Carolina Department Of Health And Environmental Control, In So Many Words, That Deaths Within The Communities Of Our Great State Has Now Passed Ten-Thousand( 10,000) Since Event Of Both Our National And Global COVID-19-PANDEMIC.
My Belief In The Above Position, Is Also Stems From My Experince As Both A Child And Teenager Going To School Attending Rosewood Elementary, Hand Junior high And Dreher High Public Schools Within The Five-Points District In Columbia, S.C. :
” Where There Was A Solidarity Between Parents, Community And Public School Officials”.
This Is To Say, That All Of Them Endeavored Together In Doing That Which Was Right…And… Be Of Benefit In Safeguarding The Lives And Daily Endeavors Of The Children & Young Teenagers Within Both The Community And Our Public Schools.
Yes, In Looking Back, I See A Unified Collaboration Of Parents, Community And Public Schools Officials ( When It Came To The Children, Young Teenagers And Public Schools ) That I Believe Can Still Be Resultive, In This Light Of Modern Day. Moreover, I Find It Imperative That Parents, Communities And Public School Officials Collaborate And Endeavor Together In The Light Of Days Of Not So Long Ago– Given The Reply From A Gentleman To One Of My Social Media Post Regarding The ” Delta-Variant” And Advocacy For A Mask Mandate For Our Children And Young Teenagers Returning Back To Public Schools In Our Great State :
” Are You Scared ?… There’s Going To Be Another Variant After This One… You Kow It’s About Control”.
[ 1]. Well Yes I’m Scared For Our Children And Young Teenagers Returning Back To Our Public Schools Within The Communities Of South Carolina Without Some Type Of “Safeguard” Put In-Place Against This More Contagious And Easier Transmissable ” Delta-Variant ” ; [2]. Yes, There’s A Potential For An Outbreak Of Another Different Variant Raising It’s Head In Both Our Fight Against With This Global And National COVID-19 Pandemic ; [3]. I’m Personally Not Of The Opinion, That What Our Communities Of The Great State Of South Carolina And All Across Our Country Of The United States Of America Are Experience Are For Some Type Of Control Scheme– However, What I Can Say Is That The Coronavirus-Epidemic Being Experienced Within Our Communities Is A ” Realization” ! I Had Been Exposed To The Virus–( Experienced It’s Affect On My Biological System And Was Able To Overcome It’s Affect, On That First Occassion)– Since Then, I’ve Been Fully Vaccinated, However I Don’t Know, What Tomorrow Will Bring With Respect To This Unseen Silent And Highly Potentially Deadly Biological Enemy ( My Objective Is To Safeguard Lives Against This Virus,, Beat-Back Both The Results And Affects Of This Virus..And… Defeat And Conquer This Unseen Silent And Highly Potential Deadly Biological Enemy By Any Scienitific means Neccessary… Which I Depend On Expert Viral And Epidemiologist Scientist..As Well As… Statistical Data To Lead In This Objective).
Furthermore, The First Two Experts Of Science Are Establishing The Realization Of The Virus And It’s Affects. And, If Statistics Have Any Value And Respect We The People Within The Communities Of South Carolina Should Look At as A ” WISE COUNSELOR “. I Say This Because In Our Great State Statistical-Data By The SCDHEC Has Shown With Regard To A Few Public Schools That Has Open For The School Year Of 2021-2022 State-Wide That 85 COVID-19 Cases Have Already Been Verified, With (68) Students Being Infected With The Virus And (17) Employees Being Infected By The Virus.
Thus, If The Parents,Communities, And Public School Officials Should Make A Solidarity And Collaborative Effort To Demand Governor McMaster’s To Rescind His Executive Order Removing The Ban Against Mask For Children And Young Teenagers In Our Public Schools..As Well As Public Buildings In An Effort To Safeguard The Lives Of All Employees and General Public Of The Great State Of South Carolina, As This Coronavirus Epidemic We’re Experiences Within The Communities Of Our State– Surely Doesn’t Discriminate Between Superior & Inferior Communal & Economical Classifications, Ethnic Classification, Income Classifications, Religious Preferences, Whether You Reside Upstate, Midlands, Pee Dee, Low Country, Job Title, Social Status Or Whether You Care About It Or Not.
Remember Above, When I Shared Some Of The Reply From A Gentleman Stating That It’s About ” Control” ? Could Our Governor’ s Executive Order Action Be Considered A Taking Away Of Power From Individual Jurisdictional Governmental Enities Of Authorities To Safeguard The Lives Of Our Children And Young Teenagers Attending Public Schools Against Any Vairant Of The Coronavirus Epidemic And/Or Any Public Health Epidemic Both Taking The Lives And/Or Affecting The Communities In Our Great State Or To Safeguard The Lives Of Ohers And/Or General Public Within The Great State Of South Carolina. For In Any Public Health Epidemic Within The Communities Across The United States Of America And/Or The Great State Of South Carolina Where The Lives Of Our Children Endeavoring To Be The Future Of South Carolina And/Or United States Of America– We Must Put In-Place Safeguards Not Only For Them But For Our Generations To Come :
” Because The Children Are Our Future” And Indeed Devotion To Their Survival Must Start Here And Now.
The Governor, Has A Duty,To Continue To Take Any And All Neccessary And Appropriate Actions In Confronting And Coping With Significant “Public Health” Threats And Other Impacts Associated With The 2019 COVID-19 Global And National Pandemic— ” Coronavirus Epidemic Spreading Through The Communities Of South Carolina, Which Presents “Different”, “Additional”, ” Evolving Emergency Conditions” And/Or ” Extraordinary Circumstances”.
Further, In Responding To The ” Threat Posed By The ” Delta-Variant” Strain Of The Coronavirus Being Experienced In The Communities Of South Carolina, The Governor Must And Should Remain Flexible When Dealing With This ” Delta-Variant” Strain Because Of It’s [ Different] Distinct Characteristics Of Being A Coronavirus Strain [ More Contagious And Easier In Transmissability ], Which Seems To Be An “Evolving Emergency ” Public Health Threat, Not Only, Within The” Public Schools” And Communities “Of Our Great State, But Also, Within All Communities Across The United States Of America.
The Governor, Needs To Address This Emerging And Amplifying Issue (s) Regarding The [Masking] Of Our Communities Most Vulnerable K-8th Grade Populations In Our State’s Public Schools …As Well As… Our Communities Young Teenage 9th-12th Grade Populations In Our State’s Public Schools— ” As A Result Of The [Delta-Variant Strain] Of The Coronavirus Epidemic Being Experienced Within The Communities Of Our State”.
In Conclusion, The Governor Should Refocus His Efforts, On Coordinating With Local Public Schools Governmental Entities Of Authorities Mandated By S.C. Law, To Set “Policies & Procedurals Within The Public School System In The Great State Of South Carolina :
” To Identify And/Or Help Design Measures That Would Allow For Both Governmental Enities Of Authority Mandated By The Laws, Of The Great State Of South Carolina, To Reach A Medium ( That Is, Find A Balance) In An Effort To Both ” Safeguard ” The Lives Of Communities Most Vulnerable Populations In The Public Schools, As Well As, To Reduce Both The Contagious Spread And More Easier Transmitted ” Delta Variant Strain”, Of The Coronavirus Epidemic, From Within The Walls, Halls , Classrooms, Cafeterias, Gyms, Restrooms And Offices Of Our States Public School Buildings.
Sincerely And Respectfully
