West Michigan school districts navigating new mask guidance

West Michigan school districts navigating new mask guidance and last updated 2021-07-20 09:29:49-04 WEST MICHIGAN — West Michigan schools are debating their return-to-learn plans after the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) issued guidance on Monday and urged schools to require masks for anyone over the age of two regardless of vaccination status. The organization said its part of a layered approach districts should take in order to keep students in the classroom this coming school year, which it called a priority. AAP said since most students are not yet eligible for COVID-19 vaccines and wearing a mask is proven to reduce transmission of the virus among those without the shot.

County urges residents to be mindful of preventing tick bites this summer

Sentinel Staff HOLLAND Officials from the Ottawa County Department of Public Health are urging residents to practice tick-bite prevention measures this summer.  Blacklegged ticks are active from March to November in Michigan. They are commonly found in wooded and brushy habitats. Several reports of Lyme disease, the most commonly reported tick-borne disease, have been detected this year. Most humans are infected through the bites of immature ticks, called nymphs, that feed during the spring and summer months. Nymphs can be difficult to see because they are approximately the size of a poppy seed. In most cases, the tick must be attached for 36 to 48 hours or more before the Lyme disease bacterium can be transmitted.
