New CDC guidelines address how schools can work with public health officials if an infected person has been on campus. Rather than immediately shutting down, the guidelines say one option is an initial short-term class suspension & cancellation of events.

The new guidelines address how schools can work with public health officials if an infected person has been on campus. Rather than shut everything down immediately for a long period of time, the guidelines said one option is an initial short-term class suspension and cancellation of events and after-school activities.That would give public health leaders the time they need to determine how widespread the infections are.

This man has the weakest facial hair. Someone stop him, please.

Yeah, smart people know it's smart for kids to be in school whenever it is possible.
