Cuomo comes out yesterday and says "yeah, closing schools was probably a mistake based on the data we have available...."
I mean, nevermind the fact that you had evidence of that before you did it - you STILL won't re-open 'em because of the optics involved.
And yeah, it's easy to just shout about carriers and disease vectors and blah blah blah but again, you have to ignore the evidence that's showing that children to adult exposure is extremely rare, as are instances of children to children transfer. There's data here - friggen use it.
