Hundreds of employees in Georgia's largest school system have either tested positive or been exposed to the virus after just one day of preparation for the school year. Hundreds of kids and staffers contacted the virus at a Georgia summer camp 5 days in. Outbreaks already running through frats on the West Coast. In-person schooling this fall is a fantasy. Of course we all want kids in school, but we have completely failed our nation's kids with our rampant social and political irresponsibility the last 3 months. Teachers went to school and signed up to teach math, English, social studies, etc. They didn't sign up to prepare their wills and risk their lives just to go back to work. But there are parts of the country where they will be used as political pawns, and when the first teacher is hospitalized and dies, which is absolutely going to happen, or God forbid the first student, or first parent or family member, it's over. No national leadership, no plan, just rampant incompetence and inane demands that schools be open as the virus spreads at uncontrolled rates throughout the country. Be angry at that, not at the administrators that decide schools can't open, because they've been put in an impossible position
