The only thing worse than a pandemic is online teaching during a pandemic.

I agree with the position being taken by schools, this fall, to just go ahead and start classes as scheduled, put in vaccine mandates, make testing convenient, and use common sense methods (e.g., masking) to mitigate risks.

The delta variant has been spreading… but more slowly in the directions where vaccination rates are higher.
