A peek inside a Sarasota, Florida, high school gives an idea of what classroom instruction looks like with COVID-19. Lots of masks. Students simultaneously on a Zoom call and in class seated behind tri-fold divider shields.

“What do you think is the most important thing for the government to do?” the social studies department chair asked recently, throwing out several options.

Still, Altman bounced back forth, interacting with the in-person class and the remote learners, getting input from both groups and not letting the strange surroundings dim her enthusiasm for different forms of nation states. The countless new policies are being tweaked, updated, and in some cases reversed as teachers and administrators discover what works and what doesn’t.

Foreman was giving a history lesson on the Gettysburg Address recently. An aide translated her lesson into Spanish for one student, six other students watched on Zoom, and the rest of the class followed along as she gave instructions. But she began crying as she talked about trying to build relationships with her ninth-grade remote learners.

The new format has turned some of the old rules upside down in some of Bronwyn’s classes. Raising your hand is out. Interrupting is in. Leggett said he feels awful about the decision he is preparing to make because he knows how the system works. Students mean money for the district, and he doesn’t want to hurt his former coworkers. But after two weeks of constant crashes and glitches, he is ready to pull his kids out.

Pandemic vs. pandemic: COVID-19 hampers fight against HIVClinics have stopped or limited testing for HIV, and public health officials overwhelmed by demands to control COVID-19 have shifted staff away from tracking HIV patients. My apartment neighbor tested positive for covid. I woke up yesterday sicker than I've ever been in my life. My local hospital said nope to me getting a test because they want me to have 101 fever AND low oxygen. I asked for a covid test NOT a ventilator. 😭😭😭
