[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]why not just wait unto this 'wave' passes? I feel like a kid at the beach--when the big wave comes, we all know to dive under. Why not just stay home 2 weeks? I don't get it[/quote] Because we don't know when there will be another wave, we don't know 2 weeks are enough, we do know kids have sacrificed over and over again for a disease that largely affects adults. [/quote] Furthermore, in 2 weeks, the hospitals will be over run and then we'll say, we should cancel school because the hospitals are overrun (even though the spread of disease may have started to decline). COVID has again and again proved all forecasts are flawed. We need to make decisions that evaluate the risks as we understand them today. I'm ok with virtual this week and maybe next. I think we need to try getting the kids back to school next week.[/quote] Exactly, sometimes by being proactive we can avoid even bigger, catastrophic decisions. I am so tired of everyone - politicians, planners, leaders, school leaders - making reactive decisions based on wishful thinking. This is not Delta, seems like it will pass quickly, ge out there and LEAD and ffs prepare better for the spring. 2.0 boosters, massive influx of rapid tests. None of this is necessary if we invested instead of just hoping.[/quote]
