"Florida's newly appointed surgeon general signed new protocols on Wednesday allowing parents to decide whether or not to quarantine their children or send them to school after being exposed to someone with COVID-19."
Kids have to get rid of the idea that they should stay home when sick, they won't be prepared to enter the labor market.
13% is way higher than it should be right? Means undertesting/undercounting cases?
Several weeks ago, my niece had a covid case in her class. All the kids were sent home to get tested before they could come back. Several days later, she was one of two kids who had returned to class (her parents got her tested ASAP). At the time I thought, "this isn't sustainable. How are you going to educate kids under these circumstances?" Silly me, I thought the solution would be to go back to online schooling, not that people would say, "lol, let's send everyone back to the building anyway." Clearly, I have not yet reached the level of jokerfication necessary to accurately predict the future in this country. :jokerfication:
