  1. I love how they only show images of elementary school.. Trust me you don’t want to see what high schools look like, ghost towns

    1. Can I also blame Republicans for the cases in Spain, Ecuador, Italy , France , Canada ? Let’s also blame them for rainy days and cancer

    2. @Carlos Carlos Nobody is blaming them for the virus.
      It’s Donnie’s totally inadequate response to it that is the tragic problem.

    1. Parents send sick kids to school cause they have no other choice, and there’s basically no real consequences.

    2. NY tried to follow the CDC guidelines better than any other state. They experienced what an out of control coronavirus can manifest in its population

    3. They may not know they’re sick, asymptomatic, carriers… spreaders… good plan… let’s see if the numbers go up…

    1. @M D I don’t wear one, haven’t worn one and have 4 kids and guess what? They don’t either nor has almost every single person i associate with have not worn one. You stay in your basement. Keep thinking a MASK is the answer to the so called, according to media, deadliest virus almost ever. Yet almost no one wears gloves and then touches numerous things in stores then takes mask off, then uses it again. Unreal how frightened people like you are yet not 1 single time this time last year were you washing hands, wearing mask, sanitizing and all that during the FLU season.. Shows the weakness between your ears.

    2. @Wisconsin Man

      Have you heard about the US-flu 1918 or the US-flu 2009?

      Not?
      US-flu 1918, better known as the spanish glu originated in the US
      US-flu 2009, better know as the svineflu originated in the US

    3. @M Reuter Hmmm NO. They are not 100% sure where the Spanish Flu originated. They DO KNOW that it killed millions in Spain and by that many being infected in spread a lot worse around the world due to WW1. H1N1 originated in Mexico and the incomitance of Obama it spread world wide. Now we have the Wuhan Flu, yes, Wuhan. The media called it that along with Chinese Flu in Jan. Newspapers, Web Channels until Trump called it that, then it became RACIST.

    4. @Wisconsin Man Trumpvirus is more dangerous than coronavirus.
      Ignorance is bliss… wilful ignorance is more dangerous than logic.

    5. @Jack Boot Easily manipulated leftist minds are what is the most dangerous. When you are easily manipulated, THEY have you.

    1. @THE ANGRY QUAD biden is not the one that wanted to stop the votes prematurely. Biden don’t have to steal the votes, he got the votes. Pickup your MAGA hat and retreat to your dark hole. Trump got fired🤣🤣😂😂🤣😂😂😂🤣

    2. @THE ANGRY QUAD That’s right, Biden has stolen nothing. He was fairly elected. You need to learn how to punctuate.

    3. @THE ANGRY QUAD Sometimes things just change and if you don’t get on the train you’ll be left behind. Sometimes you have to evolve as information comes to light. If you think that social interaction can’t be achieved in other ways, you’d be wrong. Try skyping, Teams, Zoom, etc. If sending YOUR kids to school so they get some social interactions, well that’s your decision. But your decision may just be the end to your family.

    1. @THE ANGRY QUAD no they don’t, it’s up to the parent. I’m pro choice, your feelings can’t trump on my rights.

    1. @Wisconsin Man Obviously, you don’t understand that no one knew everything back then, not the doctors, not the scientist, etc. This virus is evolving and if you don’t evolve with the information that’s provided as it comes in, you’ll be left behind, most likely six feet under. Get with it and stop spreading negative comments.

  2. Experts: Our best weapon against the corona is social distancing, masks, washing your hands, and testing.
    t’rump: Let’s all inject bleach!!!

    1. Don’t forget shutting down the city. Hope we shut it down for the next year. Im tied of working, let the government pay for my stuff. Higher taxes higher taxes higher taxes more free stuff and freeloaders.

  3. I see about 99% mask compliance in NY whereever I go. That being said, some still have ill-fitting masks or don’t wear the masks properly. Besides the “mask is required,” signs , businesses need to add, “and please wear the mask correctly covering nose and mouth!”

    1. @Fleur Bandito Nope. It’s 40% of the people who tested, have a positive result. I can read. It’s on our state website. We don’t have enough tests for 40% of our population.. Move along, find someone else to pester please.

    2. @Jo S. Right if a thousand people get tested and 400 are positive 40% positive out of a thousand not 40% of everyone in that state. Exactly. They should explain exactly what the “positivity rate” means.

  4. from the perspective of an europan, this sounds sane to me. now, add in joe biden, get rid of trump, and keep it stable. good job.

  5. don”t forget to make the necessary updates for Covid with the HVAC in every school in the country, filtration system has to be address, matter of fact every business that wants to be open should be required to do so

  6. Here is the thing about indoor dinning hrs schools. You chose to dine in so if you get sick well …. your own choice . Kids don’t get to decide if they go to school.
