Two days after classes started, COVID infects more than 100 Horry County (S.C.) Schools students

Only two days into the school year, the Horry County (S.C.) school district already has at least
104 active cases in students, including 12 staff cases and 51 staff members in quarantine, according to Horry County Schools (HCS) COVID-19 dashboard.

The district has chosen to follow a state proviso indicating
school districts are prohibited from requiring masks in schools, and most students have returned to the classroom full-time. Only around 1,600 students had chosen the virtual option, compared to thousands who chose to go to school online last year.

Tacky, overcrowded and one of the most right wing areas in the state. Politics are
totally run by retirees who moved in and care about nothing except keeping taxes low and keeping “those people” out of their neighborhoods.
SC has a lot of beautiful beaches in normal
areas, such as Charleston and Beaufort Counties. Stay out of Horry County unless you want a racist Trumper vacation.
