For My Haters Get This!

The difference in you and I is I say what I mean and mean what I say! But the most important part of that is I say it publicly and sometimes in an open letter directly to you so don’t act like you don’t know.

You talk to me and you talk about me but see I don’t have a problem with that because I talk about you so that makes us equal. But for me it is what other folk say and I know if what they are saying is true, then it ain’t just talk.

Some of my haters have been trying to discredit me since the late 80’s but you see I will not give them the glory. I tell folk all the time that when I leave home a red flag goes up. I have 3 major rules but not limited to and that is to stay away from money, sex and drugs. See I know folk would love to see me in the news so they can say, I know he is crazy. I am ignant but a special kind of ignant and that is ignant about the truth and facts.

So haters you don’t have to call folk, send folk messages about what I say because I try to include folk that I talk to that know me and I know them. But if what I say do not go directly to some folk, I do ask that you Share what I say. I like documentation and when I say something publicly I try to go back and document it for the record.

When you see me, I am by myself when I go to meetings and events and be about the business and keep it moving.

Folk credit me for a lot of things I say but I have said time and time again I am just ignant so I don’t come with all of the things I say. I talk to lots of folk and when I hear them say something, I say it. So many don’t say it publicly because they have seen how they try to bully folk like myself. When you come for me, I got a word and it has been working since the late 80’s.

And last for now, don’t get caught up on where I live and who I represent because you don’t tell me where I can go and what I can say. But now I do accept constructive criticism because that is why I am a Professional Agitator.

In 2022, I am going to put my Ignant Degree to work more. I have put in too much time and resources for my haters to think they have figured something out. I don’t know it all but I know what I know and that is a damn lot.

Updating K-12 School Guidance

Governor Roy Cooper and the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services Secretary, Mandy K. Cohen, M.D. shared updated public health guidance for K-12 schools to follow in the upcoming school year.

“The most important work our state will do next month is getting all our school children back into the classrooms safely for in-person learning,” said Governor Cooper. “That’s the best way for them to learn, and we want their school days to be as close to normal as possible, especially after a year of disruption.”

The updated StrongSchoolsNC Public Health Toolkit is aligned with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and American Academy of Pediatrics guidance, which urges that everything possible be done to keep students in schools and emphasizes continued masking. The Toolkit says schools with students in kindergarten through eighth grade should require all children and staff to wear masks indoors, regardless of vaccination status. Schools with students in 9th through 12th grades should ensure that anyone who isn’t fully vaccinated, including students, wear a mask indoors.

This guidance is effective July 30th and local school leaders are responsible for requiring and implementing protocols in the StrongSchoolsNC Public Health Toolkit in consultation with their local health departments.

The Toolkit also updates additional measures for schools related to quarantining after COVID exposure, physical distancing, testing, transportation, cleaning and other considerations.

State health officials continue to urge unvaccinated people to follow CDC and NCDHHS guidance and wear a mask indoors. When Executive Order 220 expires at the end of July, North Carolina businesses and other entities where masks are required will make their own decisions about requiring masks, with strong guidance provided by NCDHHS. Everyone, regardless of vaccine status, should still wear a mask in certain places such as public transportation and healthcare facilities.

“Get vaccinated right now if you haven’t.  We are seeing the impact of the very contagious Delta variant of COVID-19 and it’s hitting those who are unvaccinated hard,” said Secretary Cohen. “Schools need to use the additional safety protocols outlined in the StrongSchoolsNC Public Health Toolkit to continue to protect students and staff as we enter the new school year.” 

To date, North Carolina has administered more than 9.5 million doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, with 56 percent of the adult population fully vaccinated. 60 percent of adults have received at least one dose of the vaccine, including 86 percent of people 65 and over.
