[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]probably inevitable that kids and teachers get sick. the point of social distancing and closing everything isn't to stop people from getting sick -- it's to slow the rate at which people get sick so they don't overwhelm the hospitals. instead of everyone getting sick at the same time, they're trying to stagger things so some people get sick now, and some people get sick later. schools can't be closed forever. at some point, they need to reopen.[b] my guess is that sick kids will be sent home just as if they had any other sickness.[/b] [/quote] So you really think that we will just send kids home like it's no big deal at all? "Oh, Eric's in the hospital with the virus. He should be back in a few weeks. Now everyone let's start circle time!" REALLY?[/quote] yes, really. it could be another two years before a vaccine is widely available. what is supposed to happen between now and then? are we just going to close schools until 2022?[/quote] Yes. We are. Schools will get better at distance learning but they will not re-open anytime soon (2 years is entirely possible) so we . all . need . to . get . used . to . it[/quote] Ha. That's not happening. By this summer, I bet, everything will be opened back up because the public's patience with this stuff is not unlimited. People will simply get used to living with coronavirus.
