SWEDEN’S INITIAL response to the coronavirus pandemic was mild, keeping younger schoolchildren in class, allowing businesses and restaurants to stay open with distancing, limiting public gatherings to 50 people or fewer and hoping the population would develop immunity to a sufficient level that tighter restrictions would not be needed. Now, Sweden is caught up in a surge of infections and rising deaths, and a needed reconsideration is underway. There are important lessons, including: Don’t try this if you want to save lives.

Its one thing to not shut down and something else entirely to just act like it doesnt exist

this is a state thing anyway

whats interesting is to compare California's approach to Florida's and Texas's approach

it doesnt seem to make a difference no matter what you do so we might as well send the kiddies to school

and remain open
It WOULD be a state thing.....except the states border each other.  So no, it's not at all a "state thing."

In fact for the federal gov to do anything concerning a states population there has to be a request made by the state for help

CA about to go into some more stay-at-home orders...

https://www.kcra.com/article/gov-newsom-covid-briefing-dec-3/34862785

Triggered when ICU capacity within a region drops below 15%. Apparently Orange County is almost there, and the harder-hit regions are all expected to be there within a day or two.

This is not OK.

Failing grades double and triple — some rising sixfold — amid pandemic learning (msn.com)

Online school is a complete failure, and the in-person experience is really suffering when teachers have to support multiple learning modes.

All school should be back to in-person full time.

Even with the upcoming stay at home orders, I just got emails from both schools. The public plans to stay open for in-person instruction. The charter [which unnecessarily IMHO shut down to distance learning shortly before Thanksgiving with plans to reopen after the new year] is still planning to reopen for in-person learning on schedule Jan 4. 

Not sure what's going on in the rest of the country, but here in Orange County it seems people are still on board with in-person learning for kids.

That's good. Here too.

Illinois schools are closed, or may as well be. Some in Wisconsin are closed, others are not.

And yes, I'm calling them closed, because there is not much school going on with the internet.
