@ProfMattFox I'm not confident that reopening schools can be done while protecting the vulnerable. I have 5 main concerns that I don't hear discussed in reopening plans. 1- student health prioritized over teachers & staff. 2- 31% of Black people personally know someone that died due to covid.
@ProfMattFox Reopening plans have yet to address psychological health. 3- prevalent in minority and immigrants communities are multi-generational homes, how are we ensuring the health of the vulnerable the kids live with? 4- plans I've seen don't address transient children like those in
@ProfMattFox foster care or homeless. How are we accounting for their excess risk and exposure. 5- every school bus plan I've seen seems based on pseudo science. Can we really keep exposure low on school busses. 6. What's the plan for students who parents contract covid?
@ProfMattFox How do we ensure they don't fall behind in school? How do we support their physical and psychological well-being? None of the state plans I've reviewed, truly take the vulnerable into account. Hopefully they're taking my notes seriously.
