Chicago is holding in-person classes tomorrow because our mayor is awful. I would not send my child to school right now, fam. It's all going to fall apart quickly enough. No reason to be part of the crash.
The city of Chicago is strongly advising that students test before returning to school, but they know PCR tests are impossible to come by, and that even if folks can find rapids, those often miss Omicron in its early stages. This is so reckless & dishonest, it's fucking depraved.
Remember those at-home tests that *some* Chicago students were sent to help clear them for a return to school? A bunch of those families are getting messages that their samples were delayed and therefore not tested within the necessary 48 hour time frame, so no results.
Folks who are telling me remote schooling is not good for mental health: 1) Neither is long COVID 2) Neither is getting sick or watching a relative get sick or die 3) Neither is going back, letting things fall apart because everyone gets sick, and then having to go remote anyway.
