'I'm going to have the courage to do what I know is right to protect our children,' Governor Andy Beshear said on Tuesday.
Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear signed a mask mandate into effect on Tuesday, requiring all schools statewide to require masks on all staff and students.
Beshear also highlighted that Kentucky is in the midst of one of the fastest surges of COVID-19 cases yet, and on Monday he announced 1,301 new COVID-19 cases, and the total number of cases in the state hit 500,267. "Kids are not immortal," Kentucky Children's Hospital Physician in Chief Dr. Scottie Day said,"It should be rare that a child would need to go to the hospital.", several school districts disregarded the governor's pushes for all school districts to require masks, wishing to leave the decision up to the students' parents.
