Why School Reopening Is Absurd and Dangerous

 

Even the Laffer Curve wishes it were invented by Ragu.

 

Tate Reeves(!) with a pretty good thread ...

 

Los Angeles, San Diego schools to resume online classes in fall due to jump in coronavirus cases

L. A. and San Diego to remain fully online, no classrooms.

 

Good for him. Too late but better than his mindless leader’s decrees from the White House.

 

I thought this bit was particularly good and it nails a point President Trump and his minions either don't understand or don't want to deal with.

Trump wants us to believe that America and Europe are on the same playing field. This week, he tweeted that "in Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and many other countries, SCHOOLS ARE OPEN WITH NO PROBLEMS." There’s a reason for that. Those four countries have had fewer cases of COVID since the outbreak began than we’ve had in the last seven days. So yes, they get to have some school, as a treat. And not every country has reopened schools without a problem. Israel is seeing a second wave attributed partly to a rushed reopening of schools.

 

Tater Tot has been yelling at us to get our shit together for a while now. There's not a statewide mask mandate, but he has put it in for about a fourth of the state's counties that are hotspots, including all of the ones in the Jackson area and the Coast.

 

But the stock is crushing it!

 

This is one of my favorites, and it's been forgotten under the never-ending stream of Trump bullshit.

Unlike some other web sites, this one never quite made it off the ground.
