Westmoreland County, PA, has had two school secretaries die of Covid within the last week.

One a middle school secretary in Jeanette and the other a high school secretary in Latrobe District. Latrobe is the home of the "trump house" that is painted like an American Flag and has a trump gift shop and a 15 foot statue of trump in the front yard.. This is a County that went 64% for trump.

And she did not vote for Trump. I knew there were some people in Westmorland County that had COMMON SENSE.

in the district where the HS secretary passed, there were parents in attendance arguing for keeping the schools OPEN (which the board voted to do!).

Pennslytucky. You do not even have to have a high school education to be on a school board in PA.

They don't blame anybody, in fact. They just think it's inevitable that everyone's going to get it and don't really give a fuck what happens to anyone outside of their immediate circles. As long as they don't have to wear a mask or restrict themselves at all, they're perfectly happy and will assume the risk, and don't care about your or my risk.
