[quote=Anonymous]No way. There won’t be a vaccine mass deployed and we are going to be in Northern hemisphere flu/ stuck indoors season and a projected second wave, with our deaths doubling by the end of the year.  If we get a vaccine in the lead up to the election, no one will trust it. And the realist projections are December/ January to start a rollout.

And even if a program were going, I wouldn’t send my kid. It’s too unpredictable.  Quarantine issues getting into a country— if countries have opened up to Americans (big if). Quarantine issues getting home. A sick kid you can’t get to because of quarantine and can’t get home. Plus, so many restrictions that their experience is not likely to amount to us.

Depending on the results of the election and developments with a vaccine rollout, I think solid programs going to stable countries might reopen in summer 2021.  I think there is a great chance for fall 2021.

But no— heading into flu season and an expected second wave of cases, our students are not welcome to visit most countries.   That’s not going to change by the end of the year. [/quote]
