A growing number of parents, educators and school staff in the U.S. are wary of a full return to in-person classes this fall at colleges and universities that do not have vaccine mandates on campus. This comes after most schools were fully remote or had instituted hybrid learning models over the past academic school year.Despite rigorous trials involving tens of thousands of people and conclusive research that shows that the three emergency use authorized COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective in preventing the spread of the disease as well as death from it, many Americans remain skeptical. Others simply find that getting the vaccine is an inconvenience.

Republican voters at Valdosta, Ga., rally believe Trump will be sworn in for 2nd term despite loss to Biden
Georgia Republicans are facing a dilemma at a historic turning point in their state’s politics, having to choose between loyalty to their party and loyalty to their party’s national leader — President Trump, who will be out of office next month. On Saturday, Trump headlined a rally in Valdosta for the two GOP senators seeking to retain their seats. He encouraged Georgians to vote for them but spent most of his 90-minute speech on baseless claims of misconduct by Georgia election officials, blaming them for his own loss in the state. Many rally attendees told Yahoo News that they fully expected Trump to be sworn in for a second time in January. “I don’t believe that Biden won [the election],” Miles Cook, 53, said. “I think it’s been cheated and I think Trump will become the next president.”
