Opening schools full of unvaccinated children without requiring them to wear masks or take other precautions is a recipe for disaster, the physician-in-chief of Children's Hospital New Orleans says
"I think bringing together large numbers of children, congregating them in classrooms with masks being optional -- or worse yet even, forbidden -- is just a formula for disaster," Dr. Mark Kline told CNN's Don Lemon.Kline cited Louisiana's mask mandate for schools and said it would be wise for governors across the region to follow suit.
The move"speaks against" what DeSantis and state health officials have said, Hanna said, but if a child was lost to the virus, he couldn't blame the governor, saying"that's on me.""And if there's an out and I didn't take the out, and I didn't do what was best for the children here in Tallahassee and Leon County, that's on me," Hanna said."Every time I looked at myself in the mirror it would be really hard to answer to that guy.
