Peoria responds. Who makes public health policy in AZ? Doctors and experts? Or the 9th floor? Is the governor's office willing to try to enforce this? Lots of questions....

So in a nutshell.....Ducey is saying schools can't quarantine unvaccinated students with Covid exposure, even though the AZ Health Dept. calls for it.

1. This insanity is rampant in red states across the country

It's dangerous, it's infuriating, and it's criminal

4. It's America nt

2. How???

[gratuitous]

3. This is just the strangest political strategy

Why do Republicans think that making their constituents sick and possibly dead will make them more popular? The nitwits love it, of course, but I don't think they are a majority of voters, and following Republican strategy means there are fewer of them all the time.

5. It would be good to see teachers and staff resign in large

numbers to protest this, but most can't afford to walk sway from their jobs.

So maybe the schools can simply ignore the order and let the governor try to enforcee it.
