Miami-Dade County to require COVID-19 tests for unvaccinated employees | TheHill
Miami-Dade County will require employees who are not vaccinated against the coronavirus to be tested weekly for COVID-19.
County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava (D) said in a news conference Thursday that non-union employees will be tested weekly starting Aug. 16.
Employees that show proof that they have been vaccinated can choose to opt out of the testing requirement. Exceptions will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, she said.
“We’re committed to doing everything we can to protect our employees and the public as we continue to serve in the midst of this extremely dangerous COVID surge. So, today we are taking a further step forward to ensure a safe and healthy workplace,” Cava said.

Paulo Freire
” Solidarizar-se não é ter consciência de que explora e ” racionalizar ” sua culpa paternalistamente. A solidariedade, exigindo de quem se solidariza que ” assuma” a situação de com quem se solidarizou, é uma atitude radical.
Se o que caracteriza os oprimidos, como, ” consciência servil” em relação à consciência do senhor, é fazer-se quase ” coisa” e transformar-se, como salienta Hegel, em ” consciência para outr”, a solidariedade verdadeira com eles está em com eles lutar para transformação da realidade objetiva que os faz ser este ” ser para outro “.

Judge blocks Arkansas from enforcing ban on school mask mandate | TheHill
Judge Tim Fox issued a preliminary injunction against the law, The Associated Press reported. He ruled against the law for several reasons, including finding that it discriminated between public and private schools.
Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R) signed Act 1002 in April, which prevented schools and government agencies from enforcing mask mandates.
But on Tuesday, Hutchinson said he regretted signing the mandate, and has now pushed the state legislature to overturn part of the law that prohibits schools from mandating masks.
“I signed it for those reasons that our cases were at a low point. Everything has changed now. And yes, in hindsight I wish that had not become law,” he said at a news conference.
Two lawsuits were filed against Hutchinson this week seeking to invalidate the law.
Two parents filed the first lawsuit on Monday asking the court to rule that the mandate unconstitutional, according to court records.
The second suit was filed Thursday by the Little Rock School District and the Marion School District. According to a local ABC affiliate, the Marion School District reported 839 students and 10 staff members quarantining.

Wildfire tears through B.C. community, destroying homes and forcing hundreds of evacuations | CBC News
Another British Columbia community has been devastated by a raging wildfire and more could be at risk from a blaze between Kamloops and Vernon in the province’s southern Interior.
As of Friday morning, the White Rock Lake wildfire is an estimated 450 square kilometres in size, and the B.C. Wildfire Service says it is classified as out of control. Crews worked through the night to try to suppress the fire.
Ken Gillis, chair of the Thompson-Nicola Regional District, says he has been advised that damage is extensive in the community of Monte Lake and through the nearby Paxton Valley.
“In all likelihood the majority of the community has been wiped out by this fire,” Gillis told CBC Daybreak Kamloops host Shelley Joyce.
He said the general store, one of the campgrounds and a number of residences have been destroyed.
