[QUOTE="Duckslayer100, post: 292926, member: 1485"] Except that hasn't been proven. There's a great article in the Strib interviewing the former state epidemiologist regarding the pandemic. He says that closing schools long-term will do more harm than good. He even shows the difference between Singapore and Hong Kong, one of which closed schools and the other didn't. Rate of transmission was the same. I do have a young family. I'm home right now trying to keep my kindergartner's mind and body in gear so he can get to first grade with some semblance of preparedness. My 3.5-year-old daughter is in daycare (thank God those are still open) and she has better hand-washing technique than most adults I know! Look, I don't want to put them in harm's way. I get the risks. What I'm saying is this day-to-day, duck-and-cover stuff can only last so long before someone has to ask the question, "until when?" We need goals, objectives, timelines, whatever. Some metric stick to know if we're going forward or backward. As it stands, well, we're just standing. [/QUOTE]
