All Of The Above Podcast

This Week: About half of the adult population in the United States is now fully vaccinated, but the curve is again moving in a worrisome direction.  With daily cases and hospitalizations beginning to mirror what we saw this time one year ago - despite the fact that tens of millions of people are vaccinated - are we heading for another wave of the pandemic among the unvaccinated?  And what does this mean for the nation’s 74 million children, all of whom below the age of 12 are unvaccinated? All 50 states and Washington DC are, as of now, planning for a full 5 days of in-person instruction in the fall. Some states like CA, are allowing local officials to mandate masks. In other states, laws have been passed preventing mask mandates in schools. With just a few weeks left until school resumes in much of the country, Manuel and Jeff discuss.
