This thread gets it. Details and context are important; stop falling for clickbait headlines and listen to teachers.

Again, the upshot is that there are no great options right now. That horse left the barn last spring. What we have left is the least-worst option. We are approaching *half a million dead* in this country. To fully reopen schools would be murder, full stop.
If you think we should fully reopen schools, I want you to give me your number. Fully reopening means people *will* get sick and some *will* die. So go on record with your number: how many of those deaths are you willing to accept to reopen? Tell us how many lives you'd trade.
I continue to be absolutely gobsmacked that I live in a country where basic public health and caring for one's neighbors are seen as a bridge too far. As other folks have said before, I just don't know how to explain to you that you should care about other people.
