New York pushes forward with in-person education as others reconsider

Cuomo reserved the right to change course to prevent a resurgence of Covid-19 in a state still badly scarred by its first bout with the deadly virus. Prior to his announcement Friday, the governor’s staff was busy tamping down rumors that were picking up steam that he was going to delay the start of in-person education.

The state’s test positivity rate has hovered around 1 percent in recent weeks, and Cuomo has said he will order schools to shut back down if that percentage in a given region exceeds 9 percent over a seven-day average. Cuomo’s decision Friday was expected, and now the political center of gravity shifts back to the local level after the governor exerted an extraordinary amount of authority over school decisions during much of the crisis.

Clue: NY broke the virus cycle by taking strong action early...

Too soon! Cuomo, you know better!

Federal aid makes everything ok

good luck!

Cuomo is a long shot for 2020, but if Biden fails his debates against Trump, Cuomo could be drafted

Not really. It's not going back to normal in any way.

This is the one state for which the headline 'state plans to re-open schools' doesn't seem impossible and insane.

Uh, right. Because community spread varies from place to place.

They’ll close schools within a month. Our leaders aren’t blind, they just don’t care.

Nows not the time to be complacent, don’t need to rush because must get this right.

Surprised

.realDonaldTrump we have a unified message that we want echoing all across America here it goes!!! “re-elect him baby”!!!! LeadRight GOP GOPChairwoman
