No, and yes, because I'm normal and don't want to kill people. Some people, on the other hand, are crazy trolls who want to open schools willy-nilly and increase the death toll. I don't think we should listen to them.[/quote]

That seems like some really black and white thinking though. Can you see a middle ground where schools are opened but not "willy-nilly?"[/quote]

No, which is why I answered that way. I’m also a scientist with some experience in virology and am firmly in the cautious camp. I’ve been urging people to be careful, wear masks and social distance all along, and look where we are. Schools cannot open. Sorry.

so you’re ok staying closed through 2021. [/quote]

Why are you badgering people with a date. We are in an global pandemic without any clue what's happening next.  If you tell me everyone adheres to mask rules and our cases go down to almost nil in two weeks, i would say sure I'd push for opening school immediately.  But if we're still in this shitshow of carelessness and case spikes, then yes it could be 2022 and I wouldn't send my kids to school.

with regards to teachers, I think if DCPS created a plan that's sensible and involved principals, teachers and SN parents, they would get a lot more teachers on board and oppose the fringe views of WTU.  DCPS overplayed their hands this round and now united the teachers for the most part with this shitty plan, and that's why we are where we are now.  There was no way these schools were even ready to open next week (facts will come out when these school "walkthroughs" happen this week). [/quote]
