Neverending Covid-19 Coronavirus

Florida has now recorded 6 deaths of kids/teenagers.



However, Florida continues to move forward with plans to reopen all schools. The general attitude is deaths of kids are quite rare an acceptable losses we must face so the economy does not suffer.
I mean, we don't mind them being shot at school, so this is right on brand
 
In MA, crowed sizes are being being cut back from 100 to 50 again. And phase 3 part 2 has been put on hold indefinitely by our governor today.

During todays press conference the governor is urging school districts to go the path of remote learning if they can in September.

NBC interviewed some parents on their reaction to this news and I was shocked by what people had to say.

For example, one mother they interviewed said that the state has done enough harm to kids by not having them in the classroom. It is highly inappropriate to push back on getting students back into the classroom.
 
I thought this was a very interesting thread.



Grain of salt of course, not a peer reviewed paper by any means.

I mean, I get that she violated the school's rules of cell phone and social media use but she was exposing a serious hazard for students at this school, and likely many others.

Also, based on what she said, she didn't post the photo to social media until after school from home. The only rule she really broke was posting pictures of minors (classmates) on social media without their consent per school policy. But that is pure BS. What about all the people that take pictures as the schools football game and post them to social media. Do they have consent? Do they get suspended? No. They only suspended her for breaking this rule because it's all they had on her for outing the packed hallways.

Furthermore, from what I recall, the picture is predominantly if not entirely the backs of heads.
 

Sarah Thomas is back at her job, but she's no longer earning enough to pay her bills.
That's because she was offered only 15 to 20 hours a week at her employer, a merchandising company, rather than her former full-time position. On top of that, her hourly pay was cut by $4, to $10.

This is why we need more stimulus packages.
