      Everyone is just going to be sick, all the time, forever, and people are going to forget that there was once a time when being sick was unusual.

      Yeah, we could have re-opened them safely with air filtration and n95 use. But it's cheaper just to say "fuck it" and get everyone sick.

          It helps greatly if the community is also taking measures.

          Right now, even with just with air filtration, studies estimate it cuts down the spread of disease by 20%.

          That's why you put good filtration systems in the buildings full of infection generators

                A school is a closely packed environment where people stay close to each other without really wearing masks for extended periods of time. After that, they have physical contact and eat without masks as well. You can install the filtration system at the cost of the art program and computer lab but that's not going to fundamentally change the nature of schools. Also schools have people sit near each other and use toilets.

                  They're not going to do it at the expense of the art program and computer lab. Those programs were axed long ago in much of the us.

                    A school where the windows and doors aren't always shut and locked? What are we, a bunch of Europeans? amerikkka-clap

          Or people in general. Just walked into the bathroom at work and there is snot on the wall above the urinal. Only adults work here.

      I still remember when that fuck gave the all-clear to re-open everything and ban masks but if you wanted to interview him you needed to test negative three days in a row and wear an N95 outdoors.

      Curious.

      There wasn't even an appropriate response the first time

      If your responses is comprehensive then schools and everything should have been shut down for 6-12 weeks while people are tested and quarantined.
