This wasn't a hard choice to make but not only the ****ing idiot president missed it but every governor as well.
NYC to close schools, but GYMS BARS RESTAURANTS to remain open. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2020/1...c-schools-on-thursday-as-virus-cases-increase
In Germany and other European countries, even as they go into another round of lock-down more strict than pretty much anywhere in the US, the schools are kept open. They also gave people economic support so they can afford to stay home instead of having to work and spread the disease further. It looks like both the federal and state governments here are making the opposite choice.
In Denmark schools were opened before anything else. Bars were dead last because it was pointed out that demographic were the most at risk of spreading the virus.
Come on, man... The difference is the schools are full of kids too immature to make good medical decisions. Only mature adults are allowed into the bars...
THere needs to be 50 governors (who actually care about governing nad their states, so lol, probably not most repubs) ON MITCH MCCONNELL'S ****ING DOORSTEP EVERY DAY ASKING FOR MONEY TO CLOSE THE ******* BARS AND REOPEN THE ****ING SCHOOLS
So people without kids in New York are supposed to drink alone at home and ruin the economy while becoming alcoholic shells of their former selves?
We should prioritize vaccinating teachers, first responders, and grocery workers. **** the restaurants.
