[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An Indiana school shut down the same day they reopened.

There were 80+ cases amount campers and staff in one section of a camp in Missouri.

Texas has over 1,300 cases linked to daycares.

250/600 kids who were only at camp 4 days in Georgia tested positive; the numbers will likely be higher after 2-14 days for incubation.

We KNOW kids are germ factories.  We KNOW they have poor personal hygiene habits.  We know they put things in their mouths and touch their faces.  We know they share food and utensils, whisper in other kids’ ears and have no comprehension of personal space.  We know they do impulsive, foolish, childish things... because they’re children!

NO child should be in daycare or school.  NO child should be at activities.  I don’t understand why this is so hard to comprehend.  Even when kids are asymptomatic (especially when they’re asymptomatic!), they spread the virus everywhere.[/quote]

Child care for essential workers and then those who cannot work and home and/or don't have one parent at home should be able to have child care, but agree with you on the rest.  Camps, no.  Activities, no.  The quicker we handle things responsibly. the quicker we will get rid of it and be able to get back to the things we enjoy.[/quote]

I think we need a stricter definition of what is defined as essential work.   Employers, and the government should back employers to  have workers stay home. For the next 8 weeks, like we should have done in the beginning. Then we can open up in phases like NY is doing.  I personally think some places and activities  ( camps, sports teams, theme parks and beaches) should be off limits until a vaccine is available. No it's not fun, but it's not forever. and th longer we're stubborn  about what really needs to be done the worse it's going to be, and the harder it will be to correct course.[/quote]
