Picture a young person in a carpentry apprenticeship. The supervisor has given a list of essential tools that must be brought on the first day. What would anyone think of a parent who says, "No tools today, Mary. You go and feel free to just build good relationships on the first day. Tools burden you." Be free.

Ok, now how do you feel about the republican governors who have taken the health expert's tools away

"The various measures that controlled the spread of other variants—masks, better ventilation, contact tracing, quarantine, and restrictions on gatherings—should all theoretically work for Omicron too. But the U.S. has either failed to invest in these tools or has actively made it harder to use them. Republican legislators in at least 26 states have passed laws that curtail the very possibility of quarantines and mask mandates. In September, Alexandra Phelan of Georgetown University told me that when the next variant comes, such measures could create “the worst of all worlds” by “removing emergency actions, without the preventive care that would allow people to protect their own health.” Omicron will test her prediction in the coming weeks."

Think of the situation. You now have a relatively low vaccination rate. An even relatively lower booster rate. And
you have over half your states in which the parent has sent you to your carpentry course without your hammer.
