Sure. And you have the right to decide whether or not you go to work. You don't have the right to decide that your employer will continue to pay you. It is the same for all of us.[/quote]

So what are you going to do when teachers retire or quit rather than go to work, and they can't be replaced (at all, or in time for the school year)?  What are you going to do when teachers do go back to work, and then get sick, and then schools have to be closed?  What are you going to do when there are no subs, because subs are quite often older women (often retired teachers), and they don't want to work, either?  Treating it like a purely individual decision is missing the point.  It's a systemic issue that needs a systemic solution.  [/quote]

Many many other countries have dealt with this with covid numbers comparable to the dmv and rest of Northeast.  There really wasn’t much of an impact from schools opening.[/quote]

Same poster, of course, AZ, TX, Fl and SoCal should not reopen schools until they get their numbers down to our levels.  But we don’t live there, we live on an area with an extremely competent covid response.[/quote]

Oh, for God's sake.  You do know that those neat little lines between the states on the map don't functionally exist, that our state borders are porous and that right now, people from all over the country are being idiots crowding into Florida beaches because "they were soooo cooped up and their kids were boooooored and they NEEDED THIS VACATION," who will then come home and spread the virus?  You know how exponential spread works? [/quote]
