[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh at people making cost benefit analysis about people dying alone in a room[/quote] From a public health perspective, you have to consider costs and benefits to the population as a whole. Some other countries have decided that the benefits of in-person schooling outweigh the risks. We moved from DCPS a while back and are currently in a private that has been open since Oct. They're taking appropriate precautions (see: swiss cheese model of pandemic defense). So far, no cases. They've added extra weeks of DL following Thanksgiving and winter break as an additional precautionary measure. I'm sure there will be cases at some point, but they are following local health officials' guidance for suspected cases, sending those exposed classes home if there is a possible case while allowing non-exposed groups to remain in-person--so far, so good. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/05/health/coronavirus-swiss-cheese-infection-mackay.html[/quote]
