@JeremyKonyndyk, a few qs:

1. You have been advocating against schools on the ground that the pandemic is insufficiently contained.

But open schools have not been shown to accelerate spread—so why would closing them be the answer to slowing spread?

2. In discussing the role of pediatric transmission in the dynamics of the pandemic, why do you focus only on anecdotal news reports?

Why don’t you engage with the systematic studies from all over the world that undermine your speculation?

For example: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7268273/

3. How are you getting online these days? I happen to have a cousin who is a tech for a phone company. He has continued working throughout. Because essential.

Do you believe your having internet is essential but schools are not? Same q re toilet paper.

4. I am sure you would concede the staggering human costs of continuing to keep schools closed.

So, tell me: by what principle do you elevate the imperative to manage the pandemic above the imperative to manage the human costs of shuttered schools?

5. You stood up for the right of assembly in the midst of a pandemic.

Are you aware that most state constitutions also affirm a right to schooling?

If abridging the right to assembly could ameliorate spread, would you support abridging that right?

Or nah, just schools?
