The province's director of public health said Thursday that while there have been cases in schools, they have not caused any significant negative impacts.
Dr. Horacio Arruda says it's normal to have some cases as society returns to normal, but the situation is under control. The province has allowed elementary schools outside the Montreal area to reopen but cancelled the rest of the school year in Montreal, which surpassed 25,000 cases on Friday.Meanwhile,This report by The Canadian Press was first published May 29, 2020Students maintain social distancing at Ecole Marie Rose as elementary schools outside the greater Montreal area reopen Monday May 11, 2020 in Saint Sauveur, Que.. Schools and daycare centers have been closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
I don’t understand how this is “under control” and that their “advantage” is that it’s affected mostly young children!! Do these people not know the facts? That Covid does not age-discriminate when it comes to how serious this can get
Of course they have
Is anyone at all surprised?
If the schools can keep the kids properly spaced infection rates wiuld be less.
Well that's a problem.
4UWell rodolfosantosl ptm
idiots.
MFloraMaja Shocker!
Grandma and Grandpa is not enough? You also want our children?🤬
Who makes up these fake numbers ? The media of course to send out fear mongering. Anyone can say any number they want. Stop believing what you see or hear on tv. Turn off your tv and just enjoy your life. ottawacity JimWatsonOttawa OttawaBylaw
That’s an incredibly low number.... and they’ll be fine
Quebec epicentre of Canada. Why the rush to send kids to school with school year almost done? Better to spend time preparing for what Sept might look like & learn from countries that have reopened. Focus 1st on bringing infections down.
Good thing they reopened schools.........🙄🙄🙄
Quebec - so stupid always
Insane... shut the schools. This shouldn’t have happened in the first place.
So stupid to have reopened.
No shit!!
Are you surprised?
Good job Quebec! Solid performance...
ThesisPi When will we humans realize that nature is ultimately in charge, not us? Wherever we try to go back to normal COVID-19 will pop up. Makes me anxious for my Ontario and the plans to reopen here, even if regionally.
You know what they should do? They should start a riot. Burn down the city. And than no one will care about the pandemic and instead they will be referred to as brave protestors fighting tyranny
It's too early to reopen for Quebec.
Like really..is this just to keep us in fear..Like it changes every day
Province of Quebec politicians are assholes.I just can't believe it.
Major setback!!!
Out of the thousands of students in the entire province, 41 is not that bad at all.
Have any of them died?
That is what happens when people scream to reopen everything but have no game plan.
Why would they have re-opened prior to September. Their numbers are very high.
Ok KAren....aka And......? R they sick? No!!! Next resist
Good decision Sflecce fordnation
Why do they want to kill their kids
Great move to re open!! I hope everyone will be okay! The government wears this!
Who could have guessed.... besides everyone!
johangreg
OMG !!!
See what happens when the person in charge doesn't care about the lives of the people he is sworn to server, and protect? Money over lives, that is all they care about. If anyone of these children die from this then those in office have committed murder.
How many of us are thinking 'I told you so'
Next on No shit Sherlock news...
IshatReza Great job Lego!
Idiots!
JacinthePayant Please,stop putting children in danger.🤬They must live to learn. Close the schools.
GeoffyPJohnston Time to shut it down till September and send the kids home
I wanna rant to the Quebec gov, we need a leader not a politician. Money can be earned again but people’s lives cannot! Ran
Well what did they expect
Ya Right. the TEST for Covid-19 is a sham. Its impossible to test for this very weak Sars like VIRUS. only tests for FLU like antibodies that show up in most people, does not mean your Positive at all. Its a Scam. Ask any well informed Doctor.
First I want to see every politician and all beurocrats go back to work before using school kids as guinie pigs. But no send da kids
..and they will be just fine. Survival rate for covid is 99%.
FAKE NEWS
Way to go, Quebec!
Shocker
That's not good.
And this is why I refuse to send my kids to school June 1st..
Obviously they weren’t Social Distancing ...
bcbluecon Yeah, that’s cause Quebec is doing terribly at controlling the virus.
jjhorgan let’s learn from this BEFORE the same thing happens in BC!!!
There's a surprise..
Quebec is the number one reason Canada has as many covid cases as it does. Every other province has at least tried to fight it to the best of their scientific ability. Quebec is reopening way too soon without enough testing, hospital capacity, and still while cases are too high.
So what? Unless they are over 80 they will be fine.
Quebec is our Florida...
That’s a shock! 🤦♂️
😡😡😡😡😡
Quebec is drastically unprepared for a large outbreak. One example. Hospital in st eustache has 1 doctor for the Emergency and Covid . poor lady , and tents that look like they are from a refugee camp with people cooking in the hot tents keeled over soaked in sweat, terrifying
No fucking shit
I only hope that back-to-school and daycare will remain optional...
Jesus Christ, shut them down!!!!!! We don't even know what's going on with the new illness infecting more and more children every day!! How freaking irresponsible. Sorry, I'm angry.
So sad :(
Get your sh*t together Quebec
Well DUH, freakin idiots.
