The Republican governor of Missouri is pushing for children to return to school while acknowledging that doing so is likely to result in the mass spread of COVID-19

.

Although the symptoms of COVID-19 are generally more mild in children than adults, there have been many cases of serious illness and even deaths among juveniles. An 8-year-old girl in North Carolina died in early June just four days after testing positive for COVID-19, and a school-aged child in Oklahoma died this month of complications related to the disease. As of Monday, a child no older than 5 became the youngest person to die from COVID-19 in Minnesota.

Of course, there’s no way for Parson to know that. If schools become breeding grounds for new infections, as Parson himself expects will happen, it seems highly likely that COVID-19-positive children will come home from school ― as they do at the end of the day ― and infect scores of parents and elderly relatives.

Stupidity at its best

I also want to be this dense atleast for a minute.

If he agrees to walk on a bed of hot coals, which we know will cause irreparable harm, then we might consider sending kids to school.

I am very grateful to this governor. Children under ten and even those above have been shown in some studies not to be disease vectors. They need to return to school. For some school means survival.

Please support RefuseToReturn. Teacher groups in critical counties across the nation are uniting & organizing 14DaysNoNewCases for rationale. for petition. July 27th - local day of action. Aug 3rd - national day of action
