I don't think everything is going to stay closed.  Private businesses will open.  But, there is a difference between school and other businesses.  I even think daycares will be allowed to open before schools can.

HUGE liability for schools to open up in the fall before flu season.  Unlikely to happen.  Have you been around for snow days?  MCPS is going to take the safer option, no doubt.[/quote]

It's not an MCPS decision. Schools are open every year during flu season. And - can I say this without using bold and all caps? No, I can't.

[b]WE CAN'T KEEP SCHOOLS CLOSED FOR YEARS. KIDS NEED TO BE IN SCHOOL.[/b][/quote]

No they actually don't. They can be educated, but [b]they don't need to be in school[/b]. Cramming kids in packed classrooms is not what happens in a pandemic.  No one in the world is doing this.  You can all caps and bold all you want, but go read and learn about pandemics and the response from the rest of the world. [/quote]

They do need to be in school. The rest of the world is not going to keep its schools closed for years, and the US shouldn't either.[/quote]

The rest of the world didn't have a half-assessed social distancing response that they're now giving up on while the death toll is still rising daily because they're tired of being at home and want to get their nails done. 
The rest of the world doesn't have the highest death rate.
