VB in the Middle

What will schooling look like this Fall for kids? Governor Baker's administration put out a new map this week highlighting the COVID cases in each cities and town. The map is color coded according to infection numbers, meaning the highest and lowest hit areas. The governor said he does not see any reason why cities or towns in "white" (which show less than 5 reported cases) and even green (which show 4 cases per 100k) couldn't go back to school. VB shares what the latest plan is from his town on schooling. What are your thoughts for schooling this Fall? We discuss.

New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu orders a new mask mandate for social gatherings/events with 100 people or more. Are you surprised with this coming down from the Live Free or Die State? This comes after the nationwide criticism over Sturgis' Bike Rally where there was no mask mandate and thousands were spotted without masks. NH has it's Laconia Bike Week along with some other larger events coming up in the next couple of weeks. NH has not had a large number of cases or uptick in the way that neighboring state Massachusetts, has. Is this a good preventative measure with the state anticipating out of state travelers coming to these upcoming events or is this an overreaction? VB shares his thoughts and hears yours.
