New York state will provide COVID-19 tests and masks in school districts amid a recent spike in cases over the summer, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) announced Tuesday.
The announcement also comes after the recent discovery of the BA.2.86 subvariant in New York City’s sewage, according to city officials.
Hochul’s office Wednesday said the state will conduct outreach to the Education Department and Boards of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) to determine each district’s needs for the test kits and masks, including both N95 and KN95 masks.
I’ve never had COVID and I don’t intend to get it if I can avoid it.
You’re being a chode.
Maybe test yourself on antibodies if you haven’t already, people get covid without symptoms.
