New York City mayor considering a temporary remote learning option after calling it ineffective last week

"I am working closely with the president of the UFT. And we will find the right way to educate our children in a very safe environment and if we're able to put in place a temporarily remote option, we're welcome to do so," Adams said during a news conference. He added that while he's willing to talk with teachers union leadership about a remote learning option, his goal remains to keep children in school.

6% of New York City students have tested positive for Covid-19, according to sample testing from the New York City Department of Education released Thursday. The testing, which includes only about 23% of the city schools, is a sample snapshot that was taken during a 24-hour period Wednesday, according to the data. Only about 77% of students reported to school Wednesday, according to the same data.

if elected officials and news truly report how bad it is in schools, then perhaps people would understand this shift! Also with no social distancing in classrooms Covid disaster was imminent! Was preventable with true leadership! We’re not babysitters!!!

Don't go squishy on us Adams!

too much virtual learning and meetings may gradually damage our metal health

You left out man of collar. CNN

Since Covid spikes in the winter, states should change school year around so school is held during other safer months!! Something to consider for future variants!!

I'm glad he can adapt

Stay strong!

It would be easier, cheaper, & more effective to ship & deliver 💊💊 of Vaxart Covid19 vaccines & boosters to every person! Why hasn’t the 🇺🇸 invested in an actual scalable solution that could stop infection & transmission & end this pandemic?

Eric Adams is what I call a margarine politician, in other words he is artificial in nature. New York City should have elected Curtis Sliwa as it's mayor because he is a butter politician, in other words he is natural in nature. Eric Adams is just a long line of failed Democrats.

2 weeks to flatten the ol curve

Politicians are just hypocrites at this point
