A school district in New York is segregating parents by vaccination status at school shows and I dunno but this seems like a bad way to be doing things

There have probably been a lot of times over the past two years when you've stopped and said to yourself, "Okay, they're taking COVID insanity to the max. They can't possibly top this."

Well, you should know good and well by this point that they always can:

A Long Island school district has sparked an uproar after announcing plans to separate parents by vaccination status during upcoming student concerts, The Post has learned.

The Rockville Centre School District will have a non-socially distanced section for parents who show vaccination proof upon arrival.

They will also reserve a separate, socially-distanced area for those who are unvaccinated and others who have gotten the shot but still want some additional elbow room.

Acting District Superintendent Robert Bartels told The Post that the measure will enable administrators to effectively contact trace parents in the event of an outbreak.

Oh, right, "contact tracing." Remember that from last spring, when everyone thought you could meaningfully "trace" a respiratory virus that spreads easily and often silently? Seems like authorities pretty much gave up on that after it predictably proved impossible.

But I guess Long Island is bringing it back?

I know I say "homeschool is always an option" a lot, but that might not be the case in Long Island, so...

Leaving Long Island is also an option!
