CLARKSDALE, Miss. (WMC) - The Clarksdale school district has issued a mask mandate for school buildings and buses until further notice.

The district said the mandate is intended to help stop the spread of respiratory illnesses that have increased across schools.

The district asked students who feel unwell to stay out of school and get checked by a doctor.


Here we go. Just 2 weeks to flatten the curve.

The masked covidians must have been emboldened by the election results. Hopefully they won't start putting caution tape on the playground equipment again

There’s a guy at work who works in IT. He’s been wearing a mask since COVID. He still caught the flu last week.

Masks clearly don’t work and never have.

This was voted for. I have zero sympathy. If you voted blue and are now bitching about the consequences you can literally go frick your own masked face.

And I got downvoted just a few weeks ago on here for saying that COVID won’t be the last thing we lock down for.

It's shocking how ppl who are vaxxed and boosted are the ones pushing and wearing masks as well.

It's like neither work but they won't admit it.

Republicans in Mississippi. Trump in the White House. And this. No wonder people want change.

It’s in the Delta. 100% black I’m sure or close to it.

Trump is so unpopular that Mississippi is getting a Democratic Senator. The AP just called the race.

And really I don’t know why people act like Trump was some big opponent of lockdowns. He initially went around saying “Give into lockdowns people. The lockdowns will last for just 15 days.” That was before he made similar claims that the Iran War will end in 15 days.

Honestly, sounds like a perfectly reasonable approach for a respiratory outbreak, to me.

Of course, I don’t subscribe to politics as much as most people….

I’m so old I actually took the last train to Clarksdale.

I think I remember hearing that’s actually a subtle anti-war song?

If masks work so great for respiratory diseases, then why did I never see anybody in my life wearing a mask before 2020 except in a dentist’s office?

Imagine being so stupid that you think a mask will “protect” you…

If its that bad, keep your kid home.


Clarksdale public schools aren't exactly known as bastions of higher learning.

Were you never inside of a hospital prior to 2020?
