Massachusetts schools will reopen for as many students as possible this fall, governor saysMassachusetts will aim to reopen K-12 schools for as many students as possible in the fall, Gov. Charlie Baker said in a news conference.The announcement came as the state released guidelines meant to limit transmission of Covid-19 in school settings for the fall.
"Getting our children back to school in the fall is critical," Lt. Gov. Karyn Polito said."These rules take every precaution possible and are grounded in the best possible medical advice."The guidelines focus on hand washing, hygiene, and widespread use of masks or face coverings. They also call for a room, separate from a school nurses office, in which possibly symptomatic students can be isolated before being brought home.
Dr. Sandra Nelson, an infectious disease expert on the faculty at Harvard University and one of doctors consulted on the opening plan, said the guidance was the result of new information about the disease."First, children are less likely to acquire Covid than adults," Nelson said."When children are infected with Covid, they are less likely to acquire Covid than adults with Covid.
Baker also announced a fund of $200 million dollars to help school districts with the costs related to reopening and implementing the new recommendations.
that amish style beard has to go.
Hand washing before and after leaving home is most important. Don’t touch anything and play with nose or eyes. Stay home means stay home. Clean everything you touch in house / car / bicycle anything that virus could be on. Or use wipes. Follow the rules or die.
Please call it physical distancing instead of social distancing.
Nobody can social distant in NYC Metro ..jeez

CDC says COVID-19 cases in U.S. may be 10 times higher than reportedUPDATE: 'Our best estimate right now is that for every case that's reported, there actually are 10 other infections,' CDC director Dr. Robert Redfield said Thursday. For every confirmed case of COVID-19, 10 more people had antibodies, Redfield said. This is actually a good thing. More people develop antibodies the less it will spread. 😳 That would mean that the mortality rate is 10x lower than we thought too.
