[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are going to LOVE Chicago’s solution:

[i]The district has created “care rooms” and “care pods” to isolate sick children that include hospital-grade pop-up temporary structures that some have likened on social media to “plastic cages” for children that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement might use.[/i]

Hyperbole, much?  :roll: [/quote]
So you won’t object to their use here?[/quote]
People are dining in them. Socializing in them. Why not learn in them? It's a freakin' pandemic...[/quote]

People are also eating at home and not socializing with non-household members so they don’t unnecessarily risk infection. Because it’s a freakin’ pandemic.

But sure. Let’s have Zoom in the classroom with infected kids attending in plastic bubbles as long as you can go back to Pilates class, Jennifer.[/quote]

DP. I don't understand your problem. Teachers will be vaccinated. The effect on children is minimal, and parents who don't want their kids to be exposed will be able to keep them home. In terms of community spread, if bars and restaurants can be open, then schools can be too.

As long as teachers have their first vaccine by March 1, schools should be open by then. [/quote]

Mcps has said they will reopen based on community spread metrics of 15/10,0000. they haven't made any official decisions about reopening pending teachers getting vaccinated if community spread is still high.  [/quote]
