[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, I wonder which region decided to keep schools closed and public health restrictions in place. Really hard to tell here.

What is this supposed to mean? The NE has had many schools open. [/quote]

The majority, if not all, of Northeast cities shut down their schools for fully virtual learning and kept them closed throughout the fall including New York City, Boston, D.C. Area, Philadelphia, Newark, Baltimore, and others.

We're fortunate to have an educated community and educated workforce that prioritized community health and continue to do so.

Example -

[b]District schools will remain fully virtual at this time[/b]

DP, and while that may be true for the large cities you mention it’s not of the rest of the Northeast.  Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Maine—all the schools are open.  NYC has had well-publicized issues, but reopened for elementary students.

As for the “educated community” here who “prioritized community health,” give me a break.  Restaurants are full.  People are still going to the gym.  Moreover, COVID is not the only factor in determining health, and we need to remember that.[/quote]
