You can’t leave kids home alone for indefinite periods until 8 legally, so yes, low income people with little kids who count on daycare and school ARE suffering. But more importantly, their kids, who arguably benefit from school and count on school enrichment in the way UMC kids don’t have to, suffer.

Why is this okay with people? And why are we closing schools to protect a small fraction of people while the rest of population - an overwhelming number - are losing jobs, education, and suffering from other illnesses - some serious ailments -  that are actually INCREASING because of the covid19 hysteria.

When nigh on 110,000 Americans have died from covid19 in just a few months, it's actually kind of despicable to refer to it as "covid19 hysteria".[/quote]

Because the are 21 million (yes, million) unemployed people in the US right now. [/quote]

That makes it "hysteria", how? [/quote]

Covid is serious and it can be deadly for a subset of those who contract it. 100,000 people dead is a big deal. But so is the health impacts of rampant unemployment and poverty - which will grow. So are the health issues that come with increased poverty and the limitations that are taking place across the healthcare system to defer to covid.  So are the societal impacts of no school. Schools need to reopen. [/quote]
