[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People, it could be 2 more years before we have a pediatric vaccine.  I've worked in peds vaccine trials.  They are slow going.  Recruitment is very slow.

Are some of you really saying that there should be no in-person school until 2023?[/quote]

I don’t get it either. It’s maddening. It makes absolutely no sense. This pandemic has taught me how excessive fear can take hold of people and make them believe things they never thought possible. [/quote]

The fear is insane. But I’m optimistic. In a few days we will have a competent and sane president with super qualified people working for him. Biden will tell everyone school is safe (once the vaccine is more wildly available and numbers come down of course) and watch everyone will listen and be on board. People can’t think for themselves. As soon as a federal government that they believe in tells them it’s Ok the conversation will shift. And it has to. Biden knows that schools opening is critical to social and economic recovery. [/quote]

Yeah, Biden will handle this better, no doubt. I hope he doesn’t let fear mongerer Andy Slavitt anywhere near the school closure debacle.[/quote]

How will he handle it better?  There isn't much that can be done until numbers go down.  That relies on both vaccines and behavior.  People aren't going to change their behavior so we have to wait out enough people getting vaccinated and hope its effective.[/quote]
