It would be prudent to learn from other countries about reopening schools and here's a decent article on that subject. https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2020/07/school-openings-across-globe-suggest-ways-keep-coronavirus-bay-despite-outbreaks Here's the critical half of the equation you guys never seem to bother with when making this argument: How did those other countries do in terms of controlling the virus? 1

In other words they don’t know. Also this is a setting where there were many staffers that were in settings with the students for long periods of time. Very highly likely that the staffers infected the students. Whoever was making the connection to this and implications for schools is a moron. Two totally different set of dynamics. But never underestimate the mainstream media, their mainstream viewers and politicians to somehow equivocate the two. Oh, wearing cloth masks in this setting would have done zilch. THE EFFECT, HOWEVER, WAS BASICALLY LIKE THE FLU: 44% of attendees at Georgia overnight camp test positive for COVID-19. “Among 136 cases with available symptom data, 26% patients reported no symptoms. For the 100 with symptoms, the most common were fever, 65%; headache, 61%, and sore throat, 46%, the agency said.” 1

Orlando Buffalo Posted August 3, 2020 Posted August 3, 2020 This is a rant and I know this is anecdotal but just got out of first meeting of year with about 40 people in meeting room, the rest teleconference. 8 people were hugging, and hovering around each other for several minutes until my principal had to actually tell them to separate. The reason I am so pissed is these 8 are some of the biggest union people who have publicly bitched about having to return to school and how schools will not do a good job of stopping the virus. I was not overly worried about getting sick at school until I saw them because how can I discipline a child when they can't be responsible? 2 1

If I can't convince people I am their best option for their kids, why should they be stuck with me? No one of intelligence argues that competition causes worse results for the consumer, no matter the industry. 2 1

If she had simply stating it was at end of quarter and they would reevaluate it in early October would have at least given the possibility of it being anything except politics. Her acting like she does not understand the question shows how few times she gets asked a hard question. 1

Their demands have been distributed in writing. So when your average leftist tries to argue for shutting down schools, remember what they REALLY want...and it has nothing to do with anyone's safety. 3 1

B-Man Posted August 3, 2020 Posted August 3, 2020 ‘Boom! There it is.’ Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan tells Montgomery County where they can stick their anti-private-school stunt Last Friday, the Montgomery County, Maryland, Health Officer issued a directive prohibiting private, parochial, and independent schools from opening for in-person instruction until October 1 (at the earliest). No question the Montgomery County Health Officer’s decision wasn’t driven by concern for the welfare of children, but rather by pure politics and deference to teachers unions. 2
