Smart move or grave mistake? NYC keeps schools open

NEW YORK (AP) As schools across the U.S. shut down in hopes of helping to fight the coronavirus, New York City officials are arguing just the opposite: They’re keeping the nation’s largest school system open to ensure that health and emergency workers aren’t tied down with kids at home.

But teachers, many parents and some health experts say the city is making a grave mistake by continuing to call more than 1.1 million children to public schools even as it calls for social distancing elsewhere to stem the virus’ spread.

Grave, grave mistake. Same thing Italy did. This looks like just caving in to the Teachers’ Union. They’re going to kill thousands of people and leave these kids with grandparents and some of them without parents–that’s what it looks like. They would be better off if Bloomberg were still mayor.
