How Many Shoals Students Have COVID?

 



Assuming the Shoals is following the same pattern as the rest of the state, quite a few returning students have COVID. In 2020, slightly over 700 statewide tested positive for the virus during the first week of classes. How about 2021? Almost 5,600. 

On a national basis, since the first COVID case was reported early in 2020, children have made up 14.6% of the cases. During the week of August 7th, children accounted for 22.4%, an increase attributed to the Delta variant.

Yet ballgames haven't been cancelled, pep rallies continue, and classes most certainly remain in person, at least in most schools. It would seem not only Austin Powers likes to live dangerously.

For the slender bar tender, his job was a breeze.

He was quick to pour and eager to please.

He handed out the fruity nips

And bowls of crispy tortilla chips,

All enhanced with a light spray of Chinese Disease. 


You have been warned...

  1. Marxist Dems WANT us to LIVE IN FEAR of a virus with a 99.6% survivability rate. Scared individuals are easier to CONTROL.

  2. When time will pass, and surely it will,
    Yes, the Virus did hurt, and the Vaccine did kill.
    Many sat idly by, wringing their hands,
    Unwilling to research, impotent with any demands.
    They did as they were told, sheep to the slaughter,
    Got ‘Jabs’ for their sons, and even their daughters.
    The numbers of Deaths were hidden, all ‘skewed’ to fit,
    Mustn’t let them know the truth, keep them away from it.
    The Vaccine was hurried, there were tests done ahead,
    But no one was allowed to tell them, all the test animals were dead.
    So off they marched, like good little clones,
    Nothing would be left of some, except pretty headstones.
    Wake up friends, while you still can,
    Hurting and killing you WAS part of their Plan.

  3. Neither will I.
    No, I will not comply.
    They tell us constantly that we'll die,
    but I'm really quite sure, that they Lie.
    They get the Jabs over and over, while more of them are pushing up clover.
    Someday, too late, they'll all know,
    While we shake our heads and whisper, "Told you so".
