Lot of liberal pundit handwringing to the effect of "we can close schools now that we know of the great harms to kid's mental health"

which, yes, but...

(CTU maybe aside) is anyone pushing closures that aren't solely prompted by staff shortages due to their own infections?

Like pundits seem to be fighting the last war. Excepting SFUSD, they've been mostly back for a year. And even SFUSD isn't headed toward indefinite closures.

But if 30% of a school's staff is out sick/isolating, then yeah, duh, there are going to be some closed schools or classes.

All of this:
