3. We are no where close to thinking of reopening safely.

If we had mandatory masks, etc and job guarantees upon returning as well as food, housing and health care paid for by the govt while they did testing and manufactured more PPE for everyone back in Feb/March than we would be in a much safer position.

I read this about schools in Taiwan and what they did and it worked!

I wouldn't go into a classroom in Sept unless things changed drastically and that isn't going to happen. I have been ill from my classroom environment for the majority of my career as a teacher in Elem School and have permanent health damage due to it and had to stop teaching (doctors' orders).
