5 doctors were polled with one question and gave their opinions. They were not scientists. This is not science.
I guess you missed the point. Democrats keep telling us "trust the experts", "trust the doctors", "trust the scientists". But in reality, they only want us to trust the ones that have the same opinion as them, while ignoring the opinions of ones they disagree with.
Yeah well it is working where I live. Schools started July first. No super outbreaks. No crisis. Then again they have different reporting methods. Like the person being treated for COVID 19 actually has to have COVID 19. If a person dies, in order for it to be called a COVID 19 death, they had to actually die from COVID 19, not simply test positive.
The joke over here is, that in the USA, if you are brought in with a self inflicted gunshot wound to the head and die, it is called a COVID death.
No rambling. I just don't care about your income. That's your job. Why don't you pay for my lost wages? I'll send you a bill. Because that's exactly what the school districts are asking for. Your argument boils down to that you're somehow special, and need a special treatment that's different than millions others who've been negatively impacted. Except you're not special. World won't stop if you don't go into work. Ironic thing is that you're making that argument yourself.
MY world stops if I don't get paid just as YOUR world does when you don't get paid and many have had their worlds stop and lives ruined. You wished it on teachers and then rambled on about paying full price for sub-par results and there are a number of times that regardless of how sub-par something is, you don't get a refund...

The problem here is pediatricians are citing low risk to children, learning styles and socialization but neglect their families and staff and their families. It isn't like children are the only stakeholders in reopening a school.

I don't think you understand how it works. We're supposed to simply trust the doctors. If you question them, then you're a science denier.

We are really only asking the pediatricians, not other medical experts about school. Students while a major reason to reopen, shouldn't be the only voice we hear. Mind you Florida's pediatricians are encouraging Gov. DeSantis to NOT open school. Now which do we listen to: the ones in the OP or ones that say a local situation isn't right to reopen schools?
Do you even know any teachers or is this just your ranting about nothing you know about. It's much harder to do online classes than in person. No teacher wants to do online.
I have done a bit of digging into the literature and that is not what I have found. Climate scientists are in good agreement that global warming is happening and that we contribute to it. The only people I see bickering about it to any degree are usually CT journalists. And that's not to say outliers don't exist. They always do, but are just not part of the consensus.
I agree here. If kids are at risk they should be prioritized. Not every kid will have that kind of need to be on campus and the less that are there the safer for those who are there.
Yes, I think most agree the the planet is warming. Even so-called climate deniers. I thought that particular number was those scientists who were saying man was the main driver of the increase. Anyway, don’t want to derail this thread with that topic. Apparently sending kids back to school is controversial enough on its own, haha.
