If that is accurate shutting down every school seems a bit intense. I realize we have to think of the teachers and contact the kids will have but there gotta be a better way of doing this. In areas where they have 0 cases why not open the schools? I work with a vulnerable population and we kept them and ourselves safe.
Schools are open for key workers and the most vulnerable children. Children would spread the virus especially in a school setting. If they live with the elderly then that can be dangerous for them.
Master the US is a big country with 360 million people. We have plenty of areas with no virus. Things can be worked out for those who live with elderly or infirm
