Dr. Fauci Backs CDC Recommendations On Schools Reopening | Morning Joe | MSNBC
The infection is lower in schools because schools have been CLOSED! KEEP THEM CLOSED! DON’T SACRIFICE YOUR CHILDREN!
@Hugh Dougall I never had kids, and I don’t want kids going back to school now because it endangers everyone, I’m just saying that it has to be very hard for people who do have kids to make a living when their kids are at home and need someone to look after them.
I doubt you’re an adult if you think that those parents are just looking for a break and don’t understand that bills still need to get paid. This isn’t the 50’s where families can get by on one income while the mother stays home to watch the kids. That’s why they’re specifying just sending the younger kids back to school. High schoolers don’t need babysitters.
@Primalxbeast i am a parent, but lets go over this again. Our government that we pay taxes too are supposed to support us to get through a PANDEMIC. Sending kids to schools is another way to continue community spread. The parents that want to or are forced into wanting to send their kids back shouldn’t be in that situation. Republicans have exacerbated the problem of covid because they don’t treat the majority of citizens like corporations. Younger kids need teachers and staff at a school. Younger kids are much less likely to follow the guidelines. I don’t want to sacrifice teachers and staff and their families
@Hugh Dougall Yes, our government should have been sending people monthly payments so people could stay home like other countries are doing, but they didn’t, so people aren’t left with much of a choice.
I don’t want people’s little snot-nosed vectors going to school either. I was just annoyed by the suggestion that people just wanted a break from babysitting.
@Primalxbeast When the choices are credit card debt, waiting in a food line, or going without phone, internet, or some other luxury vs. Sickness, hospitalization, or death. I can only surmise you want a break from the kids. plus you are sending them into a possibility of getting a life long disease forever giving them a pre existing condition.
@Hugh Dougall It’s been a year. People have already maxed out their credit cards and used up their savings and the food pantries don’t have enough food to feed everyone. People were living paycheck to paycheck before this happened.
They gained gift of emboldening their agenda. Lynching is on the program.
Lynching? Like the lynching laws rand paul voted against.
Coronavirus: Children can be spreaders — but are often symptomless
So far, many people have underestimated the role that children can play in spreading the novel coronavirus. Researchers say they can contract and spread the virus without showing symptoms.
Up to now, most scientists have assumed that children played a marginal role in spreading the coronavirus.
One study by the Munich-based German Research Center for Environmental Health, however, used antibody tests on children and found this assumption to be untrue.

We haven’t had adequate testing in place to be able to determine this. And schools /teachers are not ready.
Get the frontline workers, teachers vaccinated. Make that a priority.

Guidance
Coronavirus (COVID-19) asymptomatic testing in schools and colleges
To safeguard the health of the teaching workforce and keep as many staff, pupils, and students in school and college as possible, we have made rapid lateral flow coronavirus (COVID-19) tests available to schools and colleges. The use of rapid lateral flow tests allows us to identify individuals with coronavirus (COVID-19) who do not have symptoms, which make up around a third of all cases.
Finding asymptomatic cases, along with other infection prevention and control measures such as social distancing, can help us manage the transmission of the virus.
GOV.UK– Department of Education, Updated 21 January 2021
Load of crap. There IS no social distancing in schools when there behind closed doors.
Well someone should tell teachers that. Especially those that are wanting to strike.
David Hale joined 1 month ago. He is a troll. Ignore him.
Social distancing in school? No, kids don’t listen on the regular. Add in them not seeing their friends for x amount of time, they’re not gonna stay away from each other
Those are facts. It’s so stupid. This is coming from a guy in high school
Dr Fauci was the NIH AIDS Expert and after 30 Years they are still looking for AIDS Vaccines. To better understand the Truth about COVID-19, AIDS, CANCERS & other Man-Made Diseases read, “This Is A Bio-Attack Alert”, by Dr Robert B Strecker, a Medical Doctor with a PhD In Pharmacology who said, “There Is No Proof Any Vaccines Cure Anything”. BUT VACCINE SALESPERSONS SAY EXPERIMENTAL VACCINES ARE SAFE???
When they reopened schools in Israel, this summer, they told the children to socially distance. The first thing they did, when they saw their friends again, was start hugging each other. And young children are very effective germ spreaders. When my children first started school, I was sick all the time, from what they brought home. The same happened to my older daughter. (Karma, I guess.) You can’t even get little kids to stop picking their noses, can you really expect them to follow health guidelines?
@Deborah Freedman So let them spread it so it goes away. All that is happening is allowing this super flu to linger. Remember chicken pox? People have become so complacent on getting flu shot relaying on hospitals and doctors. forgetting that the human body is ment to have the immune system to evolve and grow stronger. Sure are still a lot of homeless out there, close together. Walking around in groups. Why aren’t any of them sick?
Proper Hygiene prevents everything. Your kids got sick because other parents were not using proper Hygiene. schools and daycares not practicing it, or people even. How many times you seen someone not wash their hands after the bathroom?
Schools aren’t “social distant” friendly so it’s impossible to have a school full.
Agree once a certain percentage of vaccinations have been given then we can agree whether or not to open schools. (We’re still on level RED)
I have a family member who is a 1st grade teacher in a fairly large city. Her school finally said enough to in-person learning bc they could not stay open bc of positive cases among staff, subsequent quarantine, and closing for sanitizing. She had close exposure 3 x’s in a month, tested negative, returned to work before the next exposure.
And she kept going back. Respect.
you can socially distant, wear masks & be safe IN SCHOOL but the second kids are outside those doors they’re going to be hanging out w/ friends, etc.
Let’s just say they are protesting for thier education, that should allow them to hangout group together.
My youngest has been in school all of 2020 and 2021 with no issues at the school and nobody has gotten sick. 🤔
Which country??
5 catholic schools and 3 private in RI remained open with literally only two cases. I do understand the teachers fears but there are ways to protect. Get the teachers vaccinated and then keep the children (masked) at a safe distance from each other and the teacher behind a plexi-glass set up….what are masks and social distancing for…things to make you go hmmmm
There’s just so much stuff going on with the Colorado School of Mines though… There’s prospecting, math, surveying, digging! All kinds of stuff going on there?
At sjsu, not all students go to class and those students that go to class don’t go every week. Other schools should have a similar system where they can bring student to class a couple of times of week so they get the in class preparation but also reduce the risk of catching the virus.
We chose to pull our kids from their elementary school for a home school program during the fall semester but roughly 90% of the students opted to stay on campus and practice social distancing and mask wearing rules. Somehow they’ve managed to have a very low number of reported covid cases. I was certain that there would be an outbreak among students just assuming kids aren’t careful but they’ve fortunately done very well.
But.. but….teachers will have to pretend to make attempts at earning their salaries again!!

Hey, please send more to Montana. Thanks
Good start from the Covid-19 Response Team daily briefings.
Science over Traitor Trump’s gut feelings and conspiracy.
Here’s to Bird watch allowing the public to highlight and eliminate misinformation.
Here’s to Joe’s 100 day mask initiative and his common sense use of the defence protection act.
Do schools even have enough food to feed the kids???
*Dr. Fauci:* Any PCR positive with a CT over 35 is “just dead nucleotides, PERIOD.” – TWiV #641 July 2020
*Also Dr. Fauci:* Let’s test everyone with the PCR-positive cutoff at 40 CT, guaranteeing massive false positives.
