We don't yet know if people can be re-infected once they've had Covid (like the flu) of if there will be some lasting immunity once one has had it.

Positive study out on this today - see news. Looks like there is immunity. They don't knwo how long it will last, of course. We won't know this till peopel get resick.

Not true. There were positive retests but a study just came out that shows the retesters were not sick or contagious and the positive test was picking up dead viruses.

No, only a few schools reclosed.

70 new cases of the 1.4 million kids that went back to school.
