This NYC School COVID-19 plan cannot seriously be the answer.
Aside from testing, the plan lays out six possible situations involving confirmed infections. They range from a single positive case, in which a classroom will close for 14 days and students and staff with close contact will self-quarantine, to more than two cases in different classrooms. Under the latter scenario, the entire school would shut down and transition to remote learning.
So we’re going to open and close individual schools all throughout the year? Really?
