Almost all countries in Europe(you know the liberal paradise we hear about on here all the time) we’re open by the summer of 2020. California didn’t open schools until the Fall of ‘21.
Even when Europe went into lockdown mode a bunch of times during 20-21 they still kept their schools open.
BECAUSE THEY WORE MASKS
Mahua Barve lives in Frankfurt, Germany, with her husband, a son in first grade and twin daughters in kindergarten. All three children are currently attending school full time and in person. That's despite a coronavirus surge that has led Germany to shut down restaurants, bars, theaters, gyms, tattoo parlors and brothels (which are legal in the country) for November. Schools were allowed to remain open.
Despite the resurgence of the virus, Barve says, her children's school's careful safety strategies give her confidence. Each "pod" of kids goes to recess at 10 minute intervals, for example, so they don't mix in the hallways.
"When I see all the parents who are coming to pick up and drop off, they're wearing masks. The teachers are always wearing masks. They're doing their best to minimize risk. And as soon as something is detected, they are quarantining."
Barve says everyone is doing their part: "It's a little bit of choppy water, but if people are swimming in their own lanes, there's less likelihood of a disturbance."
REMEMBER? YOU WOULDN'T ALLOW ANY OF THIS
