Philadelphia School District Superintendent, William Hite Jr., discusses how his schools plan to keep students safe as they return to the classroom amid a surge in coronavirus cases. He tells Stephanie Ruhle that mandating vaccines in the district is a "complex issue" and says he "absolutely" would've required them if he didn't have to deal with challenges like teacher's unions.

How about close the children’s open BORDER body to Wuhan virus?
Unless you don’t mind your kids turning more Chinese with the Wuhan virus in their open BORDER body.

Mask mandates for students and staff are fine. However, I believe schools need to do two things – 1. make sure students are wearing the correct type of masks that really do work not these thin flimsy things. 2. make sure all staff and students are wearing the masks correctly at all times. Too many students are wearing the wrong type of mask little protection. Both staff and students are not wearing them incorrectly again little protection for them and those around them.
Why should doing the right thing be so hard, remember polio , maybe not , it was a time when Americans were required to get the vaccine and Americans came together and got the job done ..
Yes because it wasn’t a experimental vaccine it had been tested for years !
And even then there were some. Problems !
@david c smith no it was because the American people had a government that cared about them and was working third improving there lives , the Covina vaccine has been in testing for 15 years do your homework …
@david c smith polio was tested for 1 year , data was taken down , pencil on paper Thant them mathematitions calculated what took current algorithm months to get done with the Covid vaccine … the Covid vaccine moved fast because it was already being used for other similar contagions and tech has come a long way since the polio vaccine … kinda like comparing a model’ T ‘ to a race car …
