Just great.

I am certain that the jeering anti-everything COVID deniers will show up at the next school board meeting demanding that masking end "no later than February 15" with this toolkit in hand as evidence to support their demands.

I am certain there will be no nuanced discussion of the reality of outbreaks or healthcare capacity. Or of our ethical duties to those most vulnerable among us.

My kids see a team of physicians who know their medical issues. Their issues are complex. I am not sure what I would do if a #pharmacist approached the kids to engage in discussion of only partially filling meds or referring to #MAT. It’s as though there is no understanding 2/
